    im honestly just going by what one of my lady friends told me last year. she was explaining to me how green is not a primary color. not in a colors of the rainbow way but in a fashion way i guess. shes one of those fashiony types. i dont know, my work buys me clothes and i wear them. so i am like a fashion retard.

    I understand. I think it all depends upon what means by "fashion." The big women's designers don't do much with green in high fashion, but more standard clothing for people who dress in a more traditional or average style and who don't wear designer clothes, there's a lot of green these days.

    Green isn't a primary color. One has to mix blue and yellow to get green. I think there used to be negative connotations for green, such as envy, sickness, etc.

    Yep, probably that too. I believe at some point in history the British crown forbade wearing of green since it was a symbol of Ireland and Irish independence. Since so many of the colonists were originally British, that could have carried over and influenced minds on a subconscious level for many generations.

    Don't change anything

    Do an 80's throwback week here and there but our normal helmets and unis are great IMO


    Do NOT ever do those titans bullshit throwbacks and I'm cool

    Really they should switch to the color rush uniforms with 2 changes. 1) get rid of the dark green in the logo and the stripes, pure kelly green throughout 2) never ever wear green pants with a green jersey. We should only ever see 3 combos Green jersey white pants, White jersey white pants, white jersey green pants. As for the logo and helmet leave them as is other then the switch to kelly.

    no green pants any circumstance.
    green jersey white pants, white jersey white pants./

    agree with logo/helmet, and with having only 1 color green tho.
    kelly green as the main or even alternate 3rd jersey would work.

    I hear ya. I actually really like the below look to be worn occasionally and is the only reason i will defend it. Once maybe twice a year.

    I'm with you as far as the bolded; the two changes I'd make are 1) the color, and 2) the design.

    I think this is the best look we've ever had and I don't think it's close. In fact, I think most teams in the league look best with their white Jerseys. I'd be fine with this uniform for 16 weeks a year ... And hopefully 19 every so often.

    I would like to try a new helmet design as long as they never ever go back to the 80's logo. The one with the top of the 'J' stretching across.... Ugh. That's a bad memory. Up there with Tom Chambers mullet.

    They can't get rid of the green. Fuck that white on white shit. white jersey and green pants or green jersey white pants. Also nike needs to figure out how to make a green jersey all one shade of green. Will never buy a green nike jersey. Save that funky shit for your lab rats the Oregon Ducks.
