The uniform....

Just a thought, but I would love to see the skins go back to the Burgandy shirt and Gold pants as a home uniform. Obviously they would add some modern day style to it. Maybe a feather down the side of the pants or something like that. The skins have been in these unis for what.........25 years. I like the dark shirts as a home uniform. :point2sky

Yeah I agree. I like the Team Color vs. the White, but a lot of fans would tell you that we have won more games in the white. This seems to be a joe gibbs thing. When Marty was here he wanted to go back to the team color scheme. I don't mind the what color we wear as long as we are winning.

Not too superstitious myself....and yes I was here....and I loved that uniform. But it was just temp. I am talking about for good.I think it is also a mental advantage. I would rather make teams wear their road (white) uniforms because they dont feel quite as invincible. Notice that Pilidelphia sometimes wears a black shirt as their home uniform? Why....because they feel it gives them a mental advantage. Black is a rough color. I am not saying that we should go to black....but everytime a team comes to DC to play a game, they wear their home unis, and thus they feel more comfertable.....just a thought.

Hey, when joe gibbs came out of retirement to coach i recall something about how he didn't like the throw back uniforms that we were wearing the year before.

I seem to remember it being on one of the documentary audio downloads on Redskins.com with the equiptment manager where they put the decals on the helmets and stuff.

I recall him saying that joe didn't not want anything other than the traditional uniforms that he was used to seeing when he was coaching. He hated the spear and color scheme of the throw backs.

After seeing that i would be suprised to see the redskins change anything as long as gibbs is around.

I'm in the Doc Walker camp.

Wear (and do justice to) the uniform that CHAMPIONS have worn.

I liked the look of the 70th ann. retro uni but to me.....those aren't the Redskins. Those were a nice change of pace but that's all they were. The Redskins I've known, the Redskins who I have watched win World Titles wore the uniforms and helmets that I saw yesterday out at FedEx Field.

I know that it's the team and not the uni that wins, but I like tradition. Those uniforms (despite the Norv Error) has a history and tradition of winning football.

I think these are the uni's you are referring to. You obviously grew up on them just like I did.
