He opened the pocket book for a short while in the Kelly era, it didn't work, and he went back to closing the wallet until he died. 1 Quote

bigK14094 Posted July 15, 2023 Posted July 15, 2023 Red helmets were originally introduced to help Joe Fergeson by giving him a recognizable target to throw to, thus reducing interceptions. Not a marketing tool at all back those decades. 2 Quote
blacklabel Posted July 15, 2023 Posted July 15, 2023 It's been rumored for a while now that they were planning on doing the 90s throwbacks. I'm down for it. I like the current kits they have the most but mixing it up is fun too. Quote

If now they use that more metallic red, then he’ll yes. Chris Trapasso was guest hosting on OBL Friday and he had a good idea he’s been promoting. Instead of color rush (I never like the color rush look) Thursdays, he suggested the league should go with “Throwback Thursdays” so that for us could be the 60’s look, but I like the updated 90’s look. I kind of like it. It would be pretty cool going with the red helmet on any Thursday night we play. Sign me up. Edited July 15, 2023 by machine gun kelly 1 Quote

Did you forget Drew Bledsoe, Sam Adams, Takeo Spikes, London Fletcher, Lawyer Milloy…it wasn’t until he cut loose of Donahoe that Ralph tightened the purse strings. Quote

mrags Posted July 17, 2023 Posted July 17, 2023 I’d also point out that if we did red helmets again, we should absolutely do them in red chrome lime Louisvilles helmets. https://tunlovesk.xyz/product_details/44456127.html 1 Quote

FieldGeneral Posted July 17, 2023 Posted July 17, 2023 The Bucs had a horrible losing streak with the Creamcicle unis, but everyone here runs for shelter at the mention of red helmets. Have we really forgotten 13 seconds? 1 Quote
