Griever Posted April 15 Report Share Posted April 15 Not really sure what the point is of keeping a black for black's sake uniform, surprised they didn't throw in a Namath era throwback instead 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Le Tigre Posted April 15 Report Share Posted April 15 They were using the “original” Namath era uniform combo for the longest time. It replaced the “original” Sack Exchange ones they are now bringing back. They could have gone WAY back, and used their “original” NY Titans kit—which they tried out in 2009: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sort of similar to the St Louis era rams look with the gold and dark blue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iconic and original. Like the Bengals going with stylized tiger stripes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun fact: the NY Titans were bought in 1963 for the stupendous sum of $1million dollars (cue Dr Evil). The name was changed to the “Jets”, because it rhymed with “Mets” and each were going to be playing in the then new Shea Stadium. The location was also near LaGuardia Airport, so that factored in also. Having seen some baseball back in the day at Shea, the flight patterns out and into LaGuardia basically were overhead. Lots of noise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he forgot who made him look good and ran to NYC chasing tail and or money and now his career is a flop. Moral of the story: a short-term raise on a bad team, doesn't equate to more career earnings. It usually means you get a signing bonus and cut before you ever see most of that "fake" contract. He got $16mil to play 2 years at New York. It was a 3 year $24mil deal $15 mil guaranteed. There was nothing fake about it. The Bengals were not going to give him that. He absolutely did the right thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol, one other aspect that appears to be forgotten is they went back to a glossy shell instead of that matte finish. Upgrades in both aspects imo, but yeah...still the Browns.

Griever Posted April 18 Report Share Posted April 18 If true, not bad. Nothing too flashy, classic looking. Still don't understand the black jersey though, doesn't seem Lions to me. Same story with the Jets 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
