jester43 Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 i feel i have been patient and tolerant of the navy, crimson, nickel gray with royal trim abominations long enough. after today i never want to see them again. and really, when the nicest thing i have ever been able to say about them is that they are not as bad as the sabres uniforms...well, that tells you we are due for an upgrade anyway. other than buying throwback jersies like mad (i have been waiting for them to offer them in a few more players), is there anything else we can do to affect a permanent change? i am thinking about when the jets brought theirs out a few years ago and everyone loved them so much they just kept them. any ideas?? hmm....
Corp000085 Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 Well, a few petitions thrown around might not hurt the situation. Also, i do believe that there is a waiting period set up, so don't expect it this season. We are the fans, the consumers... If we want the change bad enough, we'll demand that it take place.
NavyBillsFan Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 It goes like this Money.... Who is going to spend the most money on what jersey.... So do the best thing possible, flood the market with ALL of them... I loved that old bills helmet today.... Classy!
jester43 Posted September 11, 2005 Author Posted September 11, 2005 so what you are saying is that i should not wait around for the size M duke preston throwback jersey....i should just vote with my wallet and buy a losman right now...
jarthur31 Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 I'd love to see the white helmet the team started using in 1976.
XNorthBuffaloLad Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 i am thinking about when the jets brought theirs out a few years ago and everyone loved them so much they just kept them. The JETS slightly tweaked their throwbacks when bringing them back that many of their fans didn't even notice ... Originally the logo had pointed tips, just like a football. They then rounded off the pointed tips when bringing it back. Also, their logo was on more of an angle, now it sits more leveled ... JETS Helmet 65-71 .... JETS current helmet I'd love to see us bring back those uni's, as long was we keep the black shoes, the 1965 socks like we had on today, and blue pants for road games like in 1973
justnzane Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 i must say that the bills uni's looked way too much look the colts uni's. So, I am not in favor of changin them
jester43 Posted September 11, 2005 Author Posted September 11, 2005 i would love to see an all-white version of today's uni.

XNorthBuffaloLad Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 i would love to see an all-white version of today's uni. 436721[/snapback] Nah ... needs blue pants IMHO ... all white ... white w/ blue pants
SACTOBILLSFAN Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 i want the charging buffalo on a white helmet with those jerseys we saw today
UConn James Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 I like the all white. Imagine a blue-on-blue with these unis. I've done some similar mock-ups and it would actually look pretty sweet!
seadog Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 I loved the uniforms they wore today. Forget the new crap wear these for every game.
Dante Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 I loved the uniforms they wore today. Forget the new crap wear these for every game. 436776[/snapback] Agree. Very nice uni's today.
bills_fan_in_raleigh Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 i would love to see an all-white version of today's uni. 436721[/snapback] Please say NO to all white. I like the classic look with the black shoes though. Give me a charging versus standing Buffalo on todays Uni and I love it. Was sort of like watching the Mid 60's Bills Great defense dominate a game.
Ghost of BiB Posted September 11, 2005 Posted September 11, 2005 As an aside, I ran into a guy wearing an OJ Simpson jersey the other night. Told him I hadn't seen one in a while. He said he wears it for the controversy. (He thought he was "da man" anyway...women thought he was lame...) Honestly, I can't remember seeing an OJ jersey in many years. Anyone wear "way back" throwback jerseys regular? Maybe a Kemp, a Sestak or a Rolle? Rutkowski or Dubinion? I don't wear "colors" when I go to watch a game, but I might do it in the spirit of the legacy of what is really quite a remarkable franchise. As a ghost, maybe I'm thinking that we need to conjure history. Us ghosts think that way sometimes.

For '65 - '73 throwbacks, I'd like to wear a # 86 Marlin Briscoe jersey ... or Bob Chandler # 81

Adam Posted September 12, 2005 Posted September 12, 2005 I'd love to see the white helmet the team started using in 1976. 436664[/snapback] I'd like to see the leather helmets brought back!!
XNorthBuffaloLad Posted September 12, 2005 Posted September 12, 2005 I'd like to see the leather helmets brought back!! 436865[/snapback] Which one, the '46 version when we were the BISONS, or perhaps the '47, '48, or '49 BILLS version from our AAFC days ? * taps foot *
