Well we looked Marvelous in them Throwbacks!

I looked back a few pages to see if a Throwback thread was started and I didn't see one. Sorry if I'm wrong.

~doing best Billy Crystal imitation
"You Redskins may have lost but in those Throwbacks you looked absolutly Marvelous!"

Me personally I thought they looked great. Them helmets are Classic man and with the bright yellow pants that was just very cool to see. I wish we would have won and Gibb kept using them like he did with the white uni's for a while.

What did ya'll think?

Did you see that blue crap the egals had to wear? Bwhahahahaha

peace
mike

agreed. the throwbacks were sweet. helmets should be resuscitated.

speaking of the eagles, how did they come about green and gray after those colors we saw yesterday? they looked like a derivative of the charger baby blues

Apparently blue and orange are the Pennsylvania state colors or something.

No they're not.

Navy and a gold/yellow like the Redskins helmet.

Nothing like the Easter Bunny's poop that the Eagles wore.

That's what I'm saying! lol. I don't get the whole "we won so lets wear the same thing next week" or the "we lost so lets burn these damn things..." idea. It's who's wearing the jersey that determines W's and L's, not the pigment of said jersey. People are nuts.

Re: Well we looked Marvelous in them Throwbacks!

The rule with jerseys is.....don't change them if your'e winning..it never turns out well.

Change them if things aren't going well to mix things up...which the eagles did

Re: Well we looked Marvelous in them Throwbacks!

The throwback uniforms were alright. I like the gold pants and helmet but I prefer the burgundy jerseys with those pants. I like the 70th year throwback uniforms best of all, the burgundy helmets with the spear, burgundy jerseys and gold pants.

Re: Well we looked Marvelous in them Throwbacks!

Ugh, I HATED them. I just don't like so much yellow. Then someone said that Vince Lombardi personally designed them, and modeled them after the Packers. Sorry, give me burgundy jerseys and white pants at home every single game.

Actually, I think the throwbacks were the reason we lost yesterday.
