Tomlinson could be wearing tie dye and zubaz and this would still look amazing.

These are the only Denver uniforms as far as I'm concerned:



Maybe I should note that I'm not a fan of the team.

There's a disturbing lack of orange in those tweets. Not that aqua is bad exactly, but there are limits.

Sorry I meant white on white sets. I know everyone has a white jersey, it just seems like only a couple teams wear white pants with their white jerseys regularly.

I've been against white on whites ever since Joe Montana played for the Chiefs. I can't really explain it and I can't find the best picture to illustrate things, but somehow those uniforms always brought out how tiny his legs were. It just looked really awkward somehow. You can kind of see it here I guess:

leave the names in white and outline it with the powder blue

This is an interesting idea (I really dislike it as is), can someone mock it up?

Joe Thomas seems like the safest bet of a current Browns player if they don't have a Bernie. He's signed forever and even if his legs fall off today you can talk about how good he was before.

Actually I have no idea, are linemen jerseys even a thing? They seem pretty rare even for awesome guys.

I would think that all but the most casual of fans could identify team logos based on looking at the helmets they're watching on TV though, even granting that point. I guess it's a little too ostentatious for me.

If the facemask really is pewter that's cool though and I support that part for sure.

They had a white outfit for road games and the MAC championship that looked great too.



They couldn't help but look good on the field with whatever the hell NIU was trying to do with their uniforms in that game.

If I were interested in a throwback Browns jersey I'd probably get a Webster Slaughter. Or just go really old school and get a Paul Warfield.

I'd imagine he's talking about the refs for the second one. That or taking a long view and saying 1968 wasn't all that long ago when you consider human history.

Did they get rid of the rule that you can't wear a combination that matches your field color? I remember they were tossing that around for a while regarding Boise State, but that was before anybody else was changing field colors IIRC.

Not sure if there ever was that rule for FCS, I believe that picture is from 2012 so it would have been in the last couple of years. I think you need special permission/grandfathered in like Boise to have a weird field at all in FBS.

Now I don't understand the red stripe on the plane. There are some others with a white stripe. Something to identify a particular squadron or something?

Those are really cool looking. NFL should do a Throwback Thursday Night game where they make two teams dress in black and white while using these helmets.

Even though I know what you mean I like to think you believe there was no color in the world before color TV happened.

Surely you paid with a CC or paypal, right? If you don't have any sort of info on the company or someone there you can contact, do a chargeback. If you used a check card, inform your bank and have them cancel the card and send a new one, just in case.

Considering he ordered last night I think he's just wondering if it's a scam? Which in the past it hasn't been for people in this thread at least, even if the quality isn't 100% spot on.

I don't remember anyone having fraud issues at the least.

e: Oops I'm an idiot and just noticed he said the store vanished. Hmmm. Does the confirmation email have somewhere to contact and does that work? The main aliexpress site still seems to come up for me.
