  1. Not as ugly as us wearing black. I hate the black uniform trend in football. Overdone, overused and idiotic when your primary color is not black (looking at you Detroit, Philly and Baltimore)
    It doesn't have to be all black. Take a look at this picture. I wouldn't mind a concept like this one. We can easily do something like this and just replace what you see in black and make it a dark burgandy instead. I love how huge the Redskins logo is on the helmet, it just screams at you. I also love the huge feather down the leg and right arm band. I'm so tired of the typical vertical stripe that every jersey currently has. [ATTACH]46538[/ATTACH]
  2. I'm not a fan of using an older version of uniform as an alternate. I feel if you're going to do an alternate, then you might as well do something completely different.

    I blame Jerry Glanville for this black jersey trend. 20+ years later and it still won't die. Black jerseys and flat billed caps. :doh: If we have an alternate jersey it should be based off the 1933 season. Here is Baugh...colorized.

    If we woke up tomorrow and that was our uniform, they would be the ugliest in the league from the get go. Might as well photoshop a big mac in his hands and have him advertise for McDonalds. Also, too similar to USC's gear.
  3. I'd have no problem with that either. I'm ready for an infusion of modern designs using our existing colors.

    One problem is that we don't actually wear Gold, we wear a mustard, which is why it looks so McD's. I think if they actually used a gold and a deep burgundy, and used modern styling, they could make something really cool.

    I can roll with that. Darker burgundy, darker gold. Incorporate some white or black in it for change up. I'd also like to incorporate our feather into the design it's badass. I even like the old spear too. Not a fan of the red Indian face but I know it's a traditional thing.
  4. You do realize those are our colors right? What colors should we be wearing? Maroon and black?
    Just because those are the colors doesn't mean you have to use that combo in that fashion. I like to think of team uniforms as if they were clothes. So for example if I was going to an event, I'd NEVER wear a burgundy shirt over gold pants. It would just look ugly and so too would that combo on a uniform. Now...I would wear a white shirt over gold pants.

    A lot of Skin fans "like" our colors and uniforms due to tradition...not because they look good. Our colors are fine if that's what we want to stick with but it's ugly to do burgundy over gold. Looks like McDonalds/Wells Fargo.

    Let me make a correction. I don't mind burgundy top over gold pants if both the burgundy top and gold bottom has a slight mixture of different colors in it ala your RG3 avatar.

  5. The frustrated Skins fan in me wanted a fresh new start to this franchise with new uniforms ushering in the way. I can understand why some folks want things to stay the same due to tradition and all but part of me feels those same folks are also the ones who thought there wasn't a need to trade up to get RG3, because "traditionally" we've won our Superbowls with three different QB's. Our fanbase is sometimes too loyal to a fault.

    When I play Madden I usually do the combo below.

    1. Yellow helmet with the arrow

    2. White top

    3. Yellow pants

    4. White/Yellow shoes
