RVAbrendan Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 Go back to the darker burgundy pants. These new shiny pants are no good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pjfootballer Posted December 1, 2006 Share Posted December 1, 2006 I totally agree, burgundy numerals outlined in white, with burgundy lettering on the nameplates, and, also, burgundy side panels would make it look really sharp. I think a gold (3rd) jersey would be a really cool alternate jersey, at least on an experimental basis, such as pregame warm-ups, roughly the equivalent of MLB's batting practice jerseys the players wear before games.This would also make a very nice bonanza for Mr. Snyder, with fans snapping them up for their collections. Why, even his new buddy, Tom Cruise, would love them, because his football team wore gold jerseys in the movie, "All The Right Moves". (Are you listening, Mr. Snyder) Sorry dude, but Gold jerseys would look absolutely horrible. We are not Vanderbilt or Perdue. I hate alternate jerseys. The crap the Bears, Dolphins and Browns wear (Orange) or the Black on Philly and Detroit. I'd rather leave the alternate jerseys in the NBA, NHL and MLB. The only alternate jersey that rocks are the powder blue unis of San Diego (and our 70th annys). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike42 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I think the skins need to get new uniforms all together. It's time to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozskin Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I really couldn't care less. They can wear pantomime horse costumes if they want. I only care about their performance on gameday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Passizle Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I absolutely loved the burgundy socks w/ the burgundy pants and white jersey uniform combo which was our 2004 alternate ...I do miss the burgundy/gold hoop socks ... the look with the burgundy socks/pants and black shoes and tape.. my gosh.. talk about a threatning appearance.. I dont remember that look. Have any pics? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
computerclone Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 I had been thinking over the last few months that something is wrong here... LOL Little did I know... I could be stupid but I think this could have a difference (little) between winning and losing. We have the following: Top/Pants Burgundy/White White/White White/Burgundy So we have 3 options.. I dont know if there are league rules on how many combinations but why not 4 and think about how easy it is to see thru the other teams colors given the time of day played. We have alot of colors out there with one common color.. Green Grass.. So shouldnt we give ourselves the best contrast with green and the glare and the opponents colors. Think back in the last few years when one of our recievers was going for pass and got the sun in his eyes ball dropped or whatever.... My point isnt that it would fix that.. But I think how the hell can the quaterback see our guys. I think it be cool to force the opponent into wearing colors that like white/white on a day that has alot glare! Mean while its easier for us to see our guys with Burgundy! I think .. Wait I know it would make some difference. So when the sun is shining and we have allot of glare going on... 1:00 games - Use Burgundy TOP or better yet.. ITS TIME FOR BURGUNDY/BURGUNDY Im not going to bother going into other times right now. Cause I think I have made the point and with Phillip Daniels comments I think we can help make the case. So STAT guys.. Can you help? Can anyone add here what the real stats are for the past few years.. lets say 2004 2005 2006 We need Time of Day and what Team Colors used and win / loss. weather would be cool too... So if all this works out we would have our burgundy/burgundy and better yet have a "Uniform Strategy" that would help us win games. Hail computerclone Quote: Phillip Watching you dominate last year was amazing... Hell of a job.. On to my questions.. Do the players or you really care what uniform colors you use? If so whats your fav? Seems to me having contrast with other team colors is best given the time of day played. Is the contrast against other teams colors being considered when choosing? Thanks for being "A WASHINGTON REDSKIN".. hope your here for along long time!" Phillip Daniels Quote: I care. Man I wish we could switch up a lot more because we get bored when you're wearing the same uniform all the time. We wore that white a long time and it kinda got boring, but I do like the scheme we're in now with the burgundy pants and the white jersey, but I wish we could go all burgundy. At least once. That's something I think we need to get our equipment staff to look at and hopefully next year we can do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grimm Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 We should just use uniforms that are mostly green with white horizontal stripes. Then the other teams QB couldn't see our DB's as they would blent in with the field. I rememeber Ron Pawlus when he was a Notre Dame complating the Michigan State Uni's were like camo against the field. This would solve our problem with forcing INTs.

MABfan Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 A good game to try burgundy/burgundy (if it looks good) would be the last game. If we win, then we can carry over something special (karma wise) for next year, and break it out for a division opponent or big game (I know, every game is a big game...you know what I mean). We should not break it out EVERY game, like we did white/white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbnva Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Just for this season how about Pink and Lavendar since most of our team are acting like wussies out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tastes Like Chicken Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 This would solve our problem with forcing INTs. For other teams maybe, but for #22, only if you coat him in Krazy Glue. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warpathRUskinsfan Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Burgandy on burgandy would look horrible. We'd look like some low rent version of Iowa State. Why not wear some throwback uniforms like we did back in 2002? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd look like some low rent version of Iowa State.Why not wear some throwback uniforms like we did back in 2002? I agree. Boston College (my alma mater, who also wears burgundy and gold) wore all burgundy in their bowl game last year and it looked dumb. FSU has also done the same thing with all burgundy and all black and it also looked dumb. It does do one thing - it fires up the other team. We shouldn't do it. If we're gonna switch it up I say go for those throwbacks, because they were pretty awsome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glikster04 Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 if u looked, there was this thread just the other day. it wasnt exciting then, and no offense man, but it isnt exciting now. B on B is ugly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B on B is ugly. Doesnt matter if its exciting or not... Thats what Porn is for... lol The shade of burgundy matters... I agree if the wrong shade is use it could look ugly. I think the shade needed would be from the "throw backs" NOT OUR CURRENT PANT BURGUNDY.... I didnt see the thread the other day... My reason isnt as much to have change for burgundy/burgundy but to have change because we do need a Uniform Stratedy for the time of day. If we dont get all Burgundy then fine maybe they will think about using Burgundy/White for 1:00 games and force other teams into white/white or whatever is appriate.. Whatever is best for us...

How many times has a loss come down to just not getting 1 first down or the quarterback doesnt see a defender because he was wearing green top? Maybe this is why JC didnt see the guy on Sunday and his pass went for 7 for the eagles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlin Emrys Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Two solid colors for the uniform only works if the helmet is a different color (i.e. the Saints = black on black with gold helmet). I say create an alternate gold jersey to wear with the burgandy pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
