HA!
No, the uniforms are not being picked to match a damn video game.

Besides, red-on-red is so 2A high school. Last year we unveiled one of the absolute best uniforms in the country. Do not screw with it.

Ex- CUUUUSE me!

I thought perhaps the game was matching the latest uniforms for '09.
Texas' looked accurate.

You could unscrew those shoulder/arm stripes, and throw them
away. :idea:

Good grief. Hopefully this is a case of misinformation to or creative license taken by the game content writers rather than a preview. Those are straight up CFL uniforms.

Surely they haven't resorted to this nonsense one year after finally getting the uni's right...

I'm with Plano: Way too many stripes on the jersey "sleeves."

The current blue jersey is an exact replica of the Buffalo Bills' alternate jerseys. They look like hand-me-downs instead of something original designed just for us.

And the pony on the pants is the wrong pony.

Overall, they got it right last year, although I'm still having to adjust to that bright, royal blue. I kinda got used to the navy.

If we were going to do something new/different with the uniforms, don't you think we would have announced it by now? I have no reason to believe that we will be same as we were last year.

It would appear that many of us are trying to create something that isn't there simply because of what a video game company does.

We had blue pants for the road in Bennett's first year, then went to grey pants.

Red helmets?

At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Really don't like the blue helmets now.

Postby locostang » Wed Jul 08, 2009 10:35 pm

Our white helmets look so much better than the blue in those pics. Our all white are hard to beat. Don't mind rotating colors, but don't do all blue or all red. All other combos are fine and could spice things up while staying classic.

Stick with what we wore in 08.... forever. Well.... maybe an adjustment to the pant stripes.... too thin. Never thought I'd like the sleeve stripes, but it was love at first sight.
