New Vikings Uniforms

[mad43dog 88]

I wonder why he didn't keep #5? Too much McNabb all over it?

I have no idea. He had to make a deal with Locke, the punter, to get it too. I dont get it

I believe it was his high school number. Maybe he didn't want to take #12 in Tampa because it was Doug Williams' number? Total speculation on my part.

this is him in high school

If you're a Vikings fan, why would you buy any other jersey besides AP or Jared Allen? Nobody else would feel too safe for me being on the team long term.

I agree. I'm a Broncos fan and I only see Manning and Welker jerseys in stores. Those will be obsolete in a year or two. No thanks.

[Joshawaggie 142]

There are certain players though that you can continue to wear when they are gone and not be embarrassing. In would consider Jared Allen and Peyton Manning to be that, of the last couples examples.

[Mings 577]

Exactly. Those two are ok. That Chad Johnson (not OchoCinco) jersey I have? Hasn't left the closet since 2006 or 2007.

I bought a Charles Woodson Packers jersey this past summer because he's still one of the greatest players to ever put on a Packers uniform, even if he is back with the Raiders.

[PALEFACE 17]

No, no, don't buy Cris Carter on the current style. He never wore it. I briefly looked at that page, and seeing Dan Fouts and Kellen Winslow Sr. on new Chargers jerseys looks bad. Looks like it might be for Winslow II.

I hear ya. But I have always been a Cris Carter fan even as a kid, but never liked the 90's era of uniform. Also, I just noticed that they offer his uniform as a Pro Line throwback but with the Northwestern stripes. Is this something he wore early on with the Vikings (I assume so).

I'd like to get the away Alan Page uni (always been a sucker for the away with shoulder stripes) but really dont know how the Pro Line compares to the Nike version fit wise. Anyone know?

Don't forget this future HOFer...

"Unsavory Pudwack" might have to be my new screen name.

when I think #12 with the Vikings I think of Steve Dils

Looks like purple on purple tonight...yuck

I was all for a few road games with them but now they are wearing then all the time!

[nuordr 943]

The monochrome looks is in full effect and I am loving it!

Yuck.

Also, I really hope the Vikings have an open air stadium in the future. That helmet and jersey look like ass when under a dome.

[xmichaelp 6]

I don't hate the monochrome as much as I probably should. Dare I say it looks good on certain guys like Patterson.

A million times better than the shiny reebok garbage with the last set at least.

[RayFinkle 431]

The field looks like ass when in a dome too. It looks to be continually wet.

That's why I was opposed to them from the start. I knew that the Vikings wouldn't be able to resist pairing them with the purple tops at some point, and that the result would look this bad.

[oldschoolvikings 13,207]

The Vikings' uniforms look like hot garbage tonight. Coincidentally, they're playing like hot garbage, so there's no chance anybody is going to be stupid enough to consider this God-awful combo to be "lucky."

I like mono-crome looks with dark colors, but not all dark colors, and especially not purple. But this version does look better than the all shiny purple Reebok version, yes, hands down.

White pants at home.

Purple away.

Law.

And yes, Field Turf always looks wet under stadium lights (inside or out) but is so much worse under a dome.

Upon further review, as a monochrome fan (helmet-to-foot) I still like the set worn last night, but I believe it would have looked a lot better if they wore yellow socks to break up the purple a tad bit.

[Sport 12,010]

The all purple looked ridiculous.
