Sec19Row53 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I doubt the Packers could ever lay claim to a "we're such an underdog, nobody believes in us" mentality, given that Vegas established them as the favorite about three minutes after the AFC Championship Game was over.Colin Cowherd please note: that's what Vegas thinks gamblers think of the two teams, not an objective analysis of the two teams' relative strengths and weaknesses.Colin Cowherd can't hear you - he's talking right now. Even if he were sleeping right now, he'd be talking. It's where I sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knnhrvy16 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I vote they wear the 1929 ThrowbackI vote they wear LA Dodgers uniforms just to mix things up a little.With Chuck Taylor Converses! The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right.

Even if he were sleeping right now, he'd be talking.Today he was talking about how unlikeable Jay Cutler comes off to people. The irony in Colin Cowherd calling someone unlikeable is palpable. Also, the way he says "shteeellurs" is grating. Have fun listening to that for the next two weeks, I won't be joining you in Cowherd's audience. If I didn't hear him accidentally every now and then I'd be able to avoid the blowhard. On topic: I'm really glad to hear the Packers will be in green.

Nomad Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Either way - the game isn't going look all that different...Lots of yellow gold pants.Oddly enough, this is only the second Super Bowl in which both teams will be wearing yellow/gold pants. The other was SB XIV (LA Rams vs Steelers). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARTnSocal Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Wrong. The Cowboys always wear white at home. Green Bay was wearing their green jerseys in Dallas in Aaron Rodgers' debut.Ahem ....

As 'ILLWAUK' noted:Interesting bit of trivia having to do with that picture...Tono Romo grew up in Wisconsin a Packers fan during the 90s when the Cowboys beat the Packers all but one time they played and ended up playing for the Cowboys.Aaron Rodgers grew up in Northern California a 49ers fan during the 90s when the Packers beat the Niners all but one time they played and ended up playing for the Packers.

gothedistance Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Green it is. Got wind of the news.The game will look good. But it isn't the greatest. Both pants will be yellow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewG70 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Green it is. Got wind of the news.The game will look good. But it isn't the greatest. Both pants will be yellow.And the pants will look noticeably different on the two teams. While the Steelers continue to use the shiny spandex material, it appears the Packers went to a non-shiny material at least a couple years ago.

TopCat Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 The Steelers have the worst uniforms in the NFL. There! I said it. The Packers are probably in the top 5 for me. Personally, I'd like to see the Packers in green jerseys and the Steelers wearing they're standard road unis but with their fauxback pants.

Personally, I'd like to see the Packers in green jerseys and the Steelers wearing they're standard road unis but with their fauxback pants. GO PACK GO!You know what, I actually think that'd look pretty good. I'd be a little strange and out of the norm for the Steelers, but come to think of it I think it'd actually be a nice look. If you think about it, it'd match well - the pant stripe is black-gold-black, the sleeves stripes (though of course a different pattern) go black-gold-black three times, and the helmet stripe is single gold on a black helmet. It could definetely work.EDIT: Oh, and I don't think the Steelers have the worst uniforms, but there are things about it that bug me. They need to go back to block numbers and take the logo patch off the chest (same goes for the Jets). What's the point of having that there, anyways? Wouldn't a wordmark suffice?

AndrewG70 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 The Steelers have the worst uniforms in the NFL. There! I said it.I disagree wholeheartedly. The Steelers' look is a classic. They should never, ever, ever, EVER change their uniforms! Round numbers, block numbers -- I'm comfortable either way.

maz Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 The Steelers have the worst uniforms in the NFL. There! I said it. The Packers are probably in the top 5 for me. They're pretty damn close to one another. Especially the dark ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luigi Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 It's not against the rules, but it's against their normal protocol (and for that matter, everyone's beside Dallas). It's just such a gimmick, to play up this whole "we're such an underdog, nobody believes in us" mentality that is rampant in the NFL.neither team can really say that there are an underdog, since the Packers are only 2 point favourites My fantasy teams: West Coast Cardinals (WRU), Glasgow Claymores (RLI) (Champions 2012) and Pemberton Foresters (VBL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
