A lot of people don't, but...

« on: Oct 12, 2009 at 21:08 »

I LOVE the NFL throwbacks. Love the old school AFL unis, even the fugly ones in Denver. And the Cowboys/Texans old school look was just great.

I hope that one day we'll play a Super Bowl with the yellow helmets!!!!

I never thought I would see the day when a sport's organization would purposely unveil or bring back a uniform that is more hideous than the Vancouver Canucks uni's from 1978 to 1985. This past Sunday, the Denver Broncos did exactly that in my opinion.

Frankly, I really don't care what uniform a team wears on Sunday's, but those things were just plain ugly.

I'd like it if they did a week where they threwback the rulebook to 1974 instead of the uniforms.

Now that is an idea that I really like. I like the old unis. Something different to look at (and in the Steelers case buy.) If nothing else, this thread made me look up the Canucks unis from the late 70's and that is always fun.

Except for the Jets & Broncos, all the throwbacks look as good or better than that team's current offering, IMO.

The socks put the Denver uniform over the top.

Hated the Steelers throwback from 1994.

True dat. Those Denver socks were ridiculous and their helmets were bland. The Raiders unis were great, not that different, really.
