Oneonta Buffalo Fan Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 I still like them. They are old school jerseys.
SilverNRed Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 As I stated before, the slugs are the primaries however I'm told the jerseys are actually very good and look very sharp. That was stressed to me. The colors are NAVY, "Slight" GOLD, and WHITE. The gold isn't the old yellow but I don't think it's actually gold either. 730060[/snapback] What I heard (and what is another way of saying the same thing) is that the new colors are very similar to the current Indiana Pacers colors.
drnykterstein Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 had to do that...hehe 730073[/snapback] I love it!

ACor58 Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 WGR just reported: The Sabres will unveil the new logo in September, not today. Quinn will announce that the Sabres will be wearing the Old School Blue and Gold for 15 games next year. and backup http://www.sabres.com/newsarchive.cfm?id=587

Bastard.
ACor58 Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 I was wrong once, but won't be this time. Details coming. 729919[/snapback] Now you were wrong twice... Does the PTS mean People Think I'm Sporano (Just kidding)
RuntheDamnBall Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 ALL jerseys WILL be UNVEILED. 730003[/snapback] whoops.
Dan Gross Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 ALL jerseys WILL be UNVEILED. 730003[/snapback] ...sometime during the week of September 24th... To mix the sports metaphors: STeeeeerike Two!
BillsGuyInMalta Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 Hey, third time HAS to be the charm now for PTS! (I keeeed, I keeeed)
RuntheDamnBall Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 Hey, third time HAS to be the charm now for PTS! (I keeeed, I keeeed) 730208[/snapback] As long as he comes on here on 9/24 and predicts they'll be unveiling them that day
PTS Posted July 27, 2006 Author Posted July 27, 2006 Wow. Third time a charm? The Sabres backed out of their plans. Local media was told to come to HSBC for a 4pm presser and that jerseys would be unveiled. Why else would the TV stations broadcast it live if it wasn't that. Were I work, I was told to be ready for the uniform sheet to send out to people at the strike of 4. Something happened between noon and now to cancel that.

I wasn't sure if he was kidding but he said they were scrambling in the arena to find some old blue uniforms to have out for the press conference (and these won't even be the alts that they eventually wear as they're going to update the colors on them).

All the jerseys have been done since April and tweaked since November.
Dan Gross Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 As long as he comes on here on 9/24 and predicts they'll be unveiling them that day 730211[/snapback] Yeah, that's right, I've changed my mind. If it is the banana slug, then keep predicting unveiling dates, PTS....
Dan Gross Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 Something happened between noon and now to cancel that. 730215[/snapback] Maybe a "no banana slug" clause in Lydman's contract?
PTS Posted July 27, 2006 Author Posted July 27, 2006 For the record, various media sources said the Sabres will be unveiling the jerseys like I said. Most of them quickly editted that story. After watching or hearing that Presser, tell me that wasn't a changed or thrown together press conference. "We didn't unveil today because I don't have any product available to show yet" Then he says we like the new jerseys, "We had Pominville and Gaustad try them on in the playoffs." Lies, lies and more lies. Judging from what he said, to me it looks like someone wanted to unveil the jerseys today but someone higher up wants them tweaked.
bills_fan Posted July 27, 2006 Posted July 27, 2006 Judging from what he said, to me it looks like someone wanted to unveil the jerseys today but someone higher up wants them tweaked. I hope that someone is the owner who is reacting to all the negative fan response. Only Tom can help us now.

"The jerseys are done, we had some guys try them on during the playoffs but we're not going to show them now because they aren't done."
