CrazyAnna Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 The Lions will be in their alternate uniform and possibly the Cowboys as well. That should be all. The Pike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claystation360 Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 Lions usually wear throwbacks especially against the Packers. And I agree the Cowboys should be in there double star specials and the Ravens in all black perhap. #DTWD #GoJaguars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 With how throwbacks are no longer throwbacks since it seems so many teams use them as their current set or current alternate set, it doesn't even matter really.And Green Bay just invented a throwback last season, stupid since their current set is pretty classic, which is awful.So I have no idea how they'd do it for most teams. I loved the idea and wish they still would. But they are souring the idea of throwbacks with so many teams just reverting to old unis or using them alot killing the throwback cool factor they had.

nuordr Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I wish the Cowboys wear their normal ugly uniforms and the Dolphins bring the Orange alternate to town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evanmaldonado Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I'll bet the lions wear the practice uniforms and the cowboys wear the thanksgiving throwback. Other than that, same as usual Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmackman Posted November 23, 2011 Author Share Posted November 23, 2011 Here are some photos from today's Sun-Sentinel from the Dallas-Miami snow game in '93What's odd is, if you look at the shoulder numbers on Terry Kirby and Pete Stoyanovich, they're spaced really far apart. I guess when teams used to heat press the numbers on, there were a lot of inconsistencies. "Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up.

TheOldRoman Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 But I'd be all for the Packers reintroducing the 1994 (1936) throwbacks for thanksgiving, only with matching pants and jerseys that use the Titans template (opposed to the one they used in 1994, which is closer to what the Cowboys use on their current throwbacks). I know they have to wait a few years to replace the "Powerball" jerseys, but I think it would be a fitting tribute to ol' Curly for the team to reintroduce the classic Lambeau-era look as a permanent alternate.1946, not 1936. '36 was green and gold. What specifically were you thinking for pants? Plain gold would be historically accurate. But I agree - Curly's classic would make an excellent alt.The throwbacks in 94 had athletic yellow helmets (just the normal helmets with the decals removed), but had khaki pants. I imagine the pants they wore in 46 were khaki and not yellow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the '46 pants were often made out of different types of materials, some of which looked a bit tannish.I'm guessing that's where the khaki came from for the '94 throwbacks. That or bad color reproduction. Back then uniform research just wasn't was what it is now. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

TheOldRoman Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 those pants look more yellow than gold.Yes, we have been through this many times, and the sides aren't going to come to an agreement. The Packers and many other sports teams wear a slightly orangey yellow and call it athletic gold. I maintain teams starting calling it atheltic gold because yellow didn't sound as distinguished or tough, while others make some silly claim that the color is actually closer to gold (like the Saints and 49ers helmets) than to yellow.
