Packers Uniforms and Ron Wolf

On second thought, I support your blue and gold unis idea for one game a year, as a tribute. Bring some legends back, put a commemorative patch on the uni, tribute at halftime, it could be cool. No more than that, though.

I support the notion of one game played with throwback uniforms, preferably a Thanksgiving game, or Halloween game. The Packers are one of the oldest teams in the NFL and it wouldn't be bad to celebrate their history at least one game a year. Plus the NFL has been pushing alternative uniforms for marketing reasons, and I prefer the blue and gold uniforms to the yellow alts that they tried to sell.

As for the current uniforms and changing them, only the yellow to a yellow gold, like actually gold, not brass like the saints, or the pale gold of the 49'rs. Though with the new jersey materials being used they may have to do something about the stripes.

It would be perfect for Holiday games. Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve....

I also really liked the throwback uniforms from the Lombardi era they wore on Thanksgiving in '03.

I love the gray facemasks.

As do I. That looks pretty badass.

If they want to change permanently to that, I would support it. It's a small change and it keeps the basics of the uniform the same, but it still looks cool. A few years ago the Colts went from blue facemasks back to gray and I think it's a big improvement.

I say if they would change anything ....I say maybe the pants have an alternate pair, White with three stripes down the sides. Green-Yellow-Green.

It could be worse.
We could have been stuck with the powder blue and white of the Titans.
Or the Tootsie Roll look of the Browns.
Or the purple with the wierd font for numbers of the Ravens.
Or pewter pants like the Cowboys.
I'll stick with the green/yellow.

And the Cards?
The red and white is nice but it looks terrible with the red on top and the rest white for their away uniforms.

I actually like the Browns uniforms. In the same way I like Penn State's uniforms. Straight class.

These are the worst of the worst:

I think the Browns could put something on the helmet. Like a CB.
Of course then everyone will start calling them the "Charlie Browns of the NFL" who will never win anything.

I agree with ya there on the Seahawks green. I wasn't aware of that.
Excuse me while I go wash out my eyes now.

Those seahawks uniforms are horrible. The Seahawks, Buccaneers, Falcons, Panthers, Jaguars, and Titans are by far the ugliest in the league.

I really want the Pack to go back to the gray facemasks, and the stripes down the side of the pants.

Does anyone remember the throwbacks they wore on thanksgiving in '01? I think it was '01. The all yellow helmets with no logo, gray facemask, all white jersey, and canvas colored pants. They were interesting.....

I really would love to see some sort of throw back uniform for one game every year.
