...........ditch the fruity glad garbage man look (all-white). Put some color back into the road uniforms.

Sports head doctors say a team wearing darks colors play meaner. I say go with green pants with the gold stripe. Of course the jersey on road trips has to remain white.

back to the white tops, and gold pants........i miss them and they were always sharp.....yes, the all-whites were good short term, but now they're just annoying.....

Hughie doesn't like the all white either.

Dislike the all-white.

Gold pants were sharp. And I'm sure their mothers would attest that they are easier to wash.

Re: I know how to improve the road record...........

I like Nanookster's idea of dark green pants with a white and gold stripe, while keeping the white jersey. The green would look even sharper than the gold pants; the gold would be an improvement over the all-white look, but it doesn't offer enough contrast with white to make the uniform visually appealing.

And I know that this has already been discussed a while ago, but we really should consider having a third uniform, like most other teams have.

No third uni, just make the away one look as sharp as the home one. The all whites gotta go. Even if it's just psychological.

Re: I know how to improve the road record...........

I've never liked the all white road unis. I wonder why they ever made the switch?

Re: I know how to improve the road record...........

Like I said awhile back......the all-whites were a good answer to Calgary's Black Uni's they used to trot out on Labour day (good guys wear white and all), but why they kept them after that Labour day game is beyond me.....

I'm not a big fan of the idea of white with Green pants (something awfully unapealing with the concept of white & green as the two primary colours)......

I'm ready for a retro uni......with the old Eskimo classic gold (Notre Dame esque, if you've ever seen Notre Dame wear their "special" green uni's)......and naturally the Old EE....

I don't like the green pants idea either. Hate the all-white look though...

Seeing as they have to wear white jerseys, what do you suggest?

It was the equipment manager at the time that was screaming for it. Campbell caved even though he said he didn't like it.

I also like the idea of the retro gold pants. I am a big fan of third jerseys but not the black jerseys. That was Calgary's idea and the Riders just copied it. I don't want to copy those two teams at anything!!!

no......no black........

Re: I know how to improve the road record...........

here's the best pic I could find of Notre Dame's greens.........now darken up the green in this pic and change the numbers from white to gold and you'll get what I'm talking about.......

Re: I know how to improve the road record...........

here's a pic of the CSU Rams.....the green is just about the perfect colour in this pic, but the gold is a little too dull.....

Gold Jerseys with white and green trim with green pants and a wide gold stripe down the sides
