I think our our problems are bigger than uniform colors.

Throw in a carbon fiber look on the helmets

They don't really need to raise awareness for cancer. I'm convinced we can cure it and we just choose not too. Healthcare is a trillion dollar industry.

100% agree with that
Why find a cure when you can treat long term with pharmaceuticals

I can see a time in the not too distant future that every week becomes some kind of social awareness promo.

Its phony.

I think the breast cancer is purely a PR move from the league. Dont get me wrong anything that brings attention to it is good (my Mums beat cancer recently) but wearing pink cleats does little. If the league really wants to do something why dont they all agree that they'll donate x anount for every point scored or ticket sales will go to a charity. Not those that pay the directors bug money. Dont know what you have over here but here we have specialist nurses from McMillan a charity, they also give out money to those in need with cancer to help with changes life with cancer. Its very good

Yes, yes, and yes, I'm glad I'm not the only one who's raised an eyebrow. The NFL's cancer publicity stunts are so underhanded. Trying to raise awareness, or inspire someone to give is one thing -- using a terminal illness to grow your product is another.

We can't come out and say it's all a sham, cause then it looks like we're the despicable ones. Meanwhile, Goodell's got Pink Floyd's Money intro on repeat.

Its not just the NFL that's bashing us over the head about "awareness" to some cause. I can't go shopping somewhere without being asked to "donate" to something each month

They look pretty good. Though I wish they'd use the gold jerseys at least once a year.

It's all about the almighty dollar.

CheramieIII · 09-14-2016, 04:47 PM

Should've been all gold with black and white trim

EVERY team has color rush this year just to toss that out there, My take on the jerseys they look sweet to me not much but still standout if we could get the black jerseys with the Gold shoulder stripes that would be cool or to see some Gold Jerseys I like them though
