Nanker Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 It's time for you to announce that you're officially ditching the puterific Donahoe era uniforms and bringing back a decent set of home and away threads for this franchise. There's no better way to make a psychological break with the dark days of the recent past than to give the fans something that's easier on the eye than the Arena Foosball League look-alike unis The Bills have been wrapped in the last few years. Time for a change, beginning in the equipment locker. Haul out the Throwback unis and have a look. That'd be a good place to start.

It would tick off a lot of casual fans who spent tons on the new jerseys in 2002-2005. Plus, they'd lose a lot of money on the one's that are in stores.
BillsGuyInMalta Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 I completely agree...I associate these "new" jerseys with losing...failure...not being able to meet expectations. Sure the standing buffalo uniforms kinda reminds me of the same things, but at least they look spiffy! All joking aside, I also think we should ditch the "new" uniforms...it was a nice little experiment, but if we really do want to start with a clean slate, lets wipe away the hideous uniforms in the process.
nick in* england Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 Seriously - with all the problems Marv faces right now - the LAST thing I want him to worry about is the fecking uniforms... Anyway - I like the all navy duds. Just like I like the throwbacks... But I want Marv to be a football man, not a fashion man.
Ramius Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 I'm with nick. I like the new unis, altho the roadies leave something to be desired. I'm perfectly happy with our current navy unis and wearing the throwbacks 2x per year.
Beerstm Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 I love the new Uni's.. My wife, who I am trying so hard to turn into a Bills fan loves thier uniforms and wants the new home 21 jersey. Keep the new Uni's... I do like the throw back uni's also
scribo Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 I would be pissed to some extent, as I've forked over some real dough from my two Spikes and Evans unis. Of course, if it really helped the Bills get back on track, which I am sure it wouldn't, I'd be all for it. Hell, I'd paint my house Bronco orange if it helped the Bills win.

Mile High Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 Think a petition would work? Have people from here sign it Bills Zone and BB.com. I really want the throwbacks for good too.
Poeticlaw Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 I'd rather have them modelling with no threads at all http://www.thesun.co.uk/page3/ 575509[/snapback] Lets keep the same home uniforms and use the throwbacks as the road uniforms as long as the Buffalo on the Helment never changes Ill be happy
boomerjamhead Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 I say switch back the the throwbacks to pacify a majority of the fanbase and wear the current unis as the new throwback twice a year from here on out. This compromise ensures that all owners of the current unis won't have to fork out more dough in the future for for throwbacks. There, I think it's settled now.
Peter Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 My two cents: Go back to the previous unis (i.e. the Superbowl unis) and wear the throwbacks twice a year. Above all costs - get rid of our awful current unis.
Gambler Posted January 20, 2006 Posted January 20, 2006 Above all costs - get rid of our awful current unis. 575530[/snapback] The current unis are terrible. Navy doesn't look good on TV.
