This is un-f'ing believable! Panthers are nearing the level of hatred I have for the Falcons! I'm beyond steaming.

I like the collar thing, it resembles the collar pad LB's used to wear in the 80's.

I agree, it's not terrible but I'll reserve judgement until I see the gold and white version and the gold and black version.

That's ok with me, Sam will always be a Saint. Sam was a great guy all around.

But we should put something then on the back of ours.. "Bring the wood". Do you think Goodell will allow that. Pansy ass

Uggghhhh...

That "gold" is so WEAK. It's like they ran out of color. I hate it. Look at the pictures that are [B]not photoshopped[B]. When a little bit of light hits it, it becomes white.

Our team numbers are now Black and Cream.

Disgusting.

P.S. - 3/4 Collars are also terrible. Not to mention the Gold FDL on a Gold background. Did these guys take art classes at all?

When did we start playing football on the moon? Did I miss a memo?

After viewing those gawd awful fugly-ass throwback uni's, how can anyone say they don't like these new ones?

I can't wait to see the other combinations.

Truth be told, they can wear plastic backs for all I care when they're hoisting up the Lombardi Trophy next year in NO.
