Rugby Saint II

Yep. Me too. I can't stop thinking about Atlanta lined up across from us wearing black helmets and not playing well. I guess I associate the black helmet with losers. I'm not a fan of the black helmets unless it's with the all black uniforms. Even then I prefer the all gold look with the throw backs.

In short, stick with the gold helmets or add a lot more gold to the helmet with a larger fleur de lis and gold stripes down the middle to give it some class. That's it! I just realized they look boring and classless. Everyone knows that we already have the best uniforms in the NFL.

I really feel like if they're going to wear these for games there should be some uniforms to match the design. You know, just a once or twice a year kind of thing.

They mentioned beating the heat in this article. I ask again if having a black helmet could make a difference for a warm weather team?

Rugby Saint II

I would think the heat is harder on black helmets. I know when we wore all black uniforms in rugby we nearly died from the heat. Research indicates the color black appears to most people as an intimidating color for a team color vs. say a white uniform. Although, our all white's and throw backs are intimidating because it's those Saints lined up against them and we consistently make the playoffs while Brady is a non factor when he plays the Saints.
