Redskins uniforms for 2008

MTK · 07-29-2008, 02:19 PM

No alternate uniforms are planned for this year, but I thought this was interesting. Apparently the plan is to wear the white jerseys with burgundy pants for the first half of the year at home, and the burgundy jerseys with white pants for the 2nd half of the year.

hmm...kinda messes with tradition in my opinion doesn't it?

That's screwed

Time for a new tradition.

When it comes to playing style and emphasis, Zorn represents a clear break with Gibbsian philosophy in that he is not trying to "recapture" Gibbs' magic. Rather, it seems to me he is intent on creating his own.

I am cool with this. I LIKE our burgundy jerseys.

I do too.

Nothing wrong with mixing it up a bit.

This is Zorn's team, let him make his own traditions.

Just please no burgundy on burgundy or white on white, we would look like a college team.

I like it. Only getting to see burgundy in Dallas and Tampa is getting old. They're great looking jerseys and we only wear them twice tops every year.

As long as we don't do all white again, I am fine with it.

MTK · 07-29-2008, 04:16 PM

They wear the burgundy jerseys at least twice a year, at Philly and at Dallas.

Schneed10 · 07-29-2008, 04:32 PM

I like both uniforms. I'm not as used to seeing the team wear burgundy since they only seem to wear it twice a year. But I like it and would like to see it more often.

More yellow pants please.

"Apparently the plan is to wear the white jerseys with burgundy pants for the first half of the year at home, and the burgundy jerseys with white pants for the 2nd half of the year."

I read that this was Zorn's plan partly to combat the heat at the beginning of the season.

they can play with tutus on as long aas they win!!!

scowan · 07-29-2008, 06:18 PM

Well, I guess once we hit the Pittsburgh game, we will be Burgandy on top and White down low for the rest of the season, because those are our road unis and everyone else will wear white tops at home. The only negative I see is the Home game against the Cowboys on 11/16, will see our Skins in Red tops and let the Cowboys wear their White tops (home look) at our place. I don't know if I like that too much.

I'm reading it as 1st half of yr white tops at home burgandy away. 2nd half burgandy at home and white away. My first thought was ...This might screw the confrence teams. Meaning when we play Dallas, Philli, and NY at home in white the first half of the yr we get to screw them in their home at the second half of the yr wearing white away. ....am I wrong? Basically we get to wear the collor the team likes best against opposing teams at home and away. maybe I read to much into it.
