Yeah, I heard the same thing. That was in the old days when the Skins played at RFK stadium -- the way the shadows were sometimes cast over the field, there were literally 'dark spots' towards the endzone that made the burgundy jerseys hard to distinguish. Gibbs took note of that, and made the permanent switch to white jerseys at home.
