johnnysama Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 This matchup only occurred in 2003- the last year of the 1997-2003 Bengals set, and the second year of the Seahawks Reebok look. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCM0313 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Apologies if someone else has posted this already, but this is a classic rare: last year of one set vs. first year of the other. Enjoy Falcons-Seahawks in December 2002: 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dabbaby17 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Bobcats vs Pelicans, November 2nd, 2013. This was the Bobcats' second to last season; the inaugural season for the Pelicans. Memphis Grizzlies vs. Atlanta Hawks, April 5th, 2003. The Grizzlies changed to their navy+teal colorway in 2004 (after adopting the Vancouver Grizzlies' colors when they moved in 2001); the Hawks to their navy+red colorway in 2007. Houston Rockets vs. Vancouver Grizzlies, February 27th, 1999. The Rockets changed to their current red+white colorway in 2003 (I personally love these navy jerseys; I wish they would bring them back), and the Vancouver Grizzlies departed for Memphis in 2001. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkeUH03vwno Seattle Supersonics vs. Minnesota Timberwolves, February 14th, 1996. This was the first year of the Sonics' green+red colorway and the last year of the Twolves' royal blue+green colorway. (I couldn't find a single picture of players from both teams in the frame, so a video of the game is the best I've got.) Philadelphia 76ers vs. Oklahoma City Thunder, March 7th, 2009. This was the last season of the 76ers' black jersey before they adopted the modern blue+red colorway, and this was the Thunders' inaugural season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was the only time these two particular uniforms matched up, as the other time they played Steelers were in black and Ravens were in white (I can't find pictures of that game). The Steelers changed to the italic numbers in 1997 and the Ravens changed to their current look in 1999. (I can't find any better pictures, so this will have to do) Found this 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walter Sobchak Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Oilers-Dolphins 1997. Classic Oilers vs. Modernized Dolphins: Bonus rarity: The Tennessee Oilers only wore their blue jerseys twice. This game in Miami and on Thanksgiving in Dallas later in the year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnysama Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 vs No game pics, but that same Archie-era Saints uniform set met the Seattle Seahawks famous 1980s set for one game in 1985. (Year three for that Seahawks set, and the last for the Saints in that getup.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTConcepts Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 New York Islanders v. Colorado Avalanche in Denver on January 9th, 2010. Only time this could have/did happen, with this being the last year of the Isles' Edge jerseys and first year of the Avs alternates. In addition, the Islanders wore their Stadium Series jerseys against the Avs in New York in 2014. It could've happened the year after, but it didn't.

Unocal Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Only two games ever that involved these specific uniforms, both from 2003-04: when Portland switched up their unis a bit and added an alternate red uni ala the Jack Ramsey salad days (fthis was the second year of that) and the last year of the original Memphis Grizzlies unis. Oh, and note the irony of the first pic: Z-Bo against Memphis in the old Pyramid with THOSE unis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
