Re: 75th Anniversary Uniforms

I'd give my right leg to see them play in Leather Helmets just for 1 game. That would be so bad ass. Other team shows up in full gear and we run out and whoop their buts with leather helmets and bloodied noses.

Awesome!

Imagine Cooley dressed and looking like this.


The ripped numbers adds a touch of "I'll kick yer @$$" too I think.

Obviously the uni is on G.P. Marshall but it reminded me of a line about Baugh: "He use to show up at camp every year year with a new suit and a 5 dollar bill and didn't change either all season."

Re: 75th Anniversary Uniforms

The yellow helmets and yellow pants were Vince Lombardi's contribution to the Skins. The Skins wore true burgundy and gold and the spear helmets, before his arrival. Lombardi basically made the Skins look like the Packers but with maroon instead of green. I'm not a fan of that look but I do like the 5 stripe pattern on the jerseys and socks and the yellow pants better than the current 2 stripe jerseys and white pants.

The true burgundy and gold uni's with the spear helmet are the best, though.

What is up with me? Well, I've been a Redskins fan for over 30 years and been attending games since the late 70's. I'm not a regular here but I have been a member for a few years.

Re: 75th Anniversary Uniforms

I guess I'm alone here, but I think these things are awful...I hope we only wear them once this year. I'm not an FSU fan but I thought the 70th were much better. These look like some broke ass high school JV uniforms to me.

Although, we could wear pink uniforms for all I care as long as we get back to the Super Bowl. I could care less what we wear I just want to win.

Re: 75th Anniversary Uniforms

The promo for the 75th anniversary documentary looks pretty cool. Too bad I won't be able to see it.

Re: 75th Anniversary Uniforms

I meant to add this earlier, I went to the Redskins store today in Short Pump Mall (Richmond area) and the manager there said that they will be wearing this helmet for 3 home games. I think its great...

Re: 75th Anniversary Uniforms

Does anyone like the chances of the Skins wearing the yellow helmets for the home opener?

I love those uniforms. I hope we see those helmets a lot this season. It's good to have a change every once in a while.
