'Color rush' uniforms to be worn for all Thursday NFL games, Lions president says

SloMotion · 04-04-2016, 05:10 AM

Don't they do this in college? Specifically at Oregon? Here's a solid black that might work with a fleur on the helmet, gold trim ... IDK, some team colors just do not lend to this, IMO, everyone can't do all black ... might be a good time for Tampa to bring back the 'creamsicle' color,

... all this is just gonna' hurt your eyes and make you listen to the game on the radio,

I've been begging for these for years, ever since I saw the Miami Heat blackout jerseys.

Saints have an all-black uni already? Looks good in black, I just wonder about teams like Miami, Arizona, Detroit, that have a lot of light/pastel colors in their uni's ... it could get pretty ugly out there,

.

On a footnote, this is what it's come to, bro ... we're discussing fashion now, #smh.

I like the color rush uniforms, especially the ones the Rams wore. I'm definitely not a traditionalist when it comes to uniforms. It we took our Black uniforms and only used the gold for outlines with no white in the jerseys I think they'd be bad ass. Basically like the Oregon pic, just gold where the neon Green is.

But it's the offseason. There's nothing going on just yet. Might as well talk a little fashion.

I propose we give my former teammate DeAndre Brown, WR from Southern Miss a tryout out though if we're talking football.

I'd rather see more traditional looks.

The best uni's in sports are the ones that never change.

I love tradition when it comes to uniforms.

Oregon is Phil Knight's alma mater, and therefore Nike experimental uniform lab.

Here's a solid black that might work with a fleur on the helmet, gold trim ...

Unfortunately for us, the "color rush" concept would not allow for black, as black is the absence of color. Since TNF is a division game, it is going to be either red (Clowns, Bucs) or powder blue (Pants) vs some aberration of the color gold... or honey mustard.

Oh, that's what I was afraid of ... pastels and such,

When it comes to color, Black is all the colors combined whereas White is the absence of all color. When it comes to light, White is all the colors of the spectrum whereas Black is the absence of color.

I think.
