White Helmets

Should we just shut down CF entirely while we're at it? I think most of the uniform/helmet threads are ridiculous as well, but the whole point of this site is conversation. And considering it's in the middle of the summer, I didn't realize there was much conversation about getting blown out on TV. Not that that is much in our control anyway. But hey, if you aren't open to conversation, you're free to leave the site entirely. I'm not sure anyone will miss you.

Little dramatic....don't you think? I was adding to conversation, as much as you may disagree with what is said, there are plenty out there who are past some trice era throwbacks and some crazy push to come out with new uniforms. We aren't those other teams, so why pretend to be?

dumb? maybe. amusing? yes, to me at least. Productive...no, but that's my opinion and is not any more relevant than yours, nor is yours/my taste in football uniforms or fashion for that matter. But we are hearing for amusement and conversation...right?

By the way...

"Let me misquote someone to make me appear witty and cool" that was great

<pats the young lad on the head> Hey son, why don't you head off to bed. The adults are talking now.

His point was: Don't make schitt out of the people talking about uniforms, then talk about uniforms.

It's simply amusing to read grown men bicker about an outfit...white helmets, throwbacks, Nike elite, etc .....just lame. No offense, but of any of you think you know how to design football uniforms...you are wrong. Second, get over it. If this isn't a keeping up with jones' I don't know what is.

First and foremost, the trice era throwbacks aren't that cool. They are rugby uniforms that will be bad...it's a good effort, but needs some serious tweaking before it wouldn't look like some Canadian football league club team. Black helmets? No comment necessary. White helmets...Well we saw what the gold jerseys look like, so little confidence there...

Be happy we have what we have and worry about something worth worrying about...not getting blown out on TV vs. the color of the helmet. Geezus...

I especially liked the part where first you called people names for discussing uniforms, and then later joined in the discussion.

not sure that ever happend sport, but if you were offended by my suggestion that it was both amusing and lame for grown men to have this conversation, or if you were offended that i suggested people weren't qualified to design good football uniforms...i'm sorry, but i don't recall calling anyone stupid or dumb as you seem to suggest.

I'd hate to see them just running around in their jocks. That could be both dangerous and a bit disturbing
 
Email JP immediately! I expect his resignation on my computer screen by the end of the day. This is a travesty!

WHy would we have white helmets. We need to stick to our identity. Our tradition. Kids these days want consistancy, they dont want flash or "the next big thing". They watch teams like oregon in the national championship game with disgust on their faces. Saying "look at those idiots, 240 uniform combos....what the h. No way would I go there, thats why Oregon is a bottom feeder".

Does Notre Dame have alt unis? Does Wisconsion? Does Nebraska? No they dont. They have tradition. The are building their brand on one uniform concept. Thats what we need to do. White helmets? More like leather helmets. Thats where its at. Tradition.

Agree. Let's go bowling consistently before we worry about what we look like in different color schemes. Just win the Damn game kiddos!
