You guys notice Danny kind of replicated what Marshall did for Sammy when he was drafted ?

Our team colors are burgundy and gold. Period. No black, no chrome, nothing else.

Oregon is the worst with this. At times, they wore neither of their team colors at all, green or yellow. Trying to be trend-setting is only stripping away their identity.

Sounds like a flippin' clown suit.

I think the problem is there are fans who despise change and prefer the Burgundy and Whit mix with gold trim, and then there are the older folk (and I fall in this catagory) who have been around through the Burgundy and Gold.

I'm sure the white when added pissed off some people and they probably said similar things to what you have about the black.

I personally am a fan who would like to see a change. We've essentially had the same uni since 1980 when JG came in and it was redesigned. I'm proud of it, I'm glad it has lasted the test of time, but it would also be nice to see a more updated uni for a change. Your favorite Burgundy and White mix can always be used as the away game uni or alternate uni. <take note I'm not even asking for a change to the logo or helmet. but I will say I that I would like to see a reversal of colors on the "R" scripted helmet. Burgundy helmet with a Gold "R" on it.

Finally. I wouldn't mind a variation of the B&G uni's we wore occasionally last season.

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over

We won't end up with something as god awful as the Steelers or Eagles, only because we've never worn anything that hideous in the past.

I think we'll see a modernized throwback. I'm kinda hoping for the feather helmet look from the early 60s.

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over

Ok, so is there a press conference or an online place we can watch the unveiling? What time is the reveal?

I could not find a time. I saw in a WP article from last week that it's a "private event".

I'm just going to keep checking Redskins 80th Anniversary and hope it's the first place to reveal them.
