Rubes Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 I say we start a petition to make them wear the retro jerseys and helmets for the big game. How awesome would that be? Who's with me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMadCap Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Start a petition to have them wear the retro stuff for EVERY game. 351977[/snapback] Indeed. I love the old unis. I have my BIlls franchise in Madden 2005 in them almost every game. For some reason, it will switch on you if the other team wears a certain color. That brings up another interesting occurance. Last night I was playing the Patsies, and they came out in the old school red and white. Anyone know what's the haps on that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
udonkey Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Petitions wouldn't work in this situation - the NFL requires teams to notify them a year in advance of any uniform changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JinVA Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Including what they might wear if they make it to the big game? 352004[/snapback] I don't know for a fact, but I would be willing to guarantee the NFL wouldn't allow a throwback uni in the Super Bowl.

Reuben Gant Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Start a petition to have them wear the retro stuff for EVERY game. 351977[/snapback] i think NFL licensing agrrements make this prohibitive. Having said that, I'd sign it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverNRed Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 While that would be great, it won't happen. Too much marketing went into the new duds. 351986[/snapback] So? The new uniforms were a failure. They were too much of a break from the Bills (royal blue) tradition and not bold enough to be cool on their own. Basically they look like the old Bills unis and the current Broncos unis had a baby (with the Titans unis possibly carrying the child). A lot of marketing is going into the retro uniforms. If that's what the fans want, give it to them. Er, I mean, give it to US! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BILLS02138 Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 How many Super Bowls did we win in the old jersey's? You guys are going over board with the uni debate - just be glad we have a team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corp000085 Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 I'd like them to wear pads and helmets to the super bowl instead of the usual sweaters if they live north or bathing suits if they live south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like Talley use to wear his Spiderman spandex shirt whenever he wanted to, knowing he'd pay a fine though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
