Dear NFL officials,

     As a concerned citizen looking out for the best for the league's fairness, I wish to document and report incidents of holding due to players wearing gloves the same colour as the opponents' jerseys.  Please do look into this.

Yours truly,

Phil Melichick,

Anytown, Massachusetts 

PS  I may be moving to California soon.

I used to keep a few sets of multi-colored markers around for the sole purpose of coloring all the tape on fingers and wrists the "appropriate" color each week. I also used to have different colored 3/4 sleeve shirts to wear underneath my jersey, which itself would have the sleeves pulled up into my armpits and rubber banded into place with as much of the undershirt sleeve showing as possible.

 

Odd phenomenon: Because I'm right-handed the tape on my left hand would always be neat and tidy, while my right hand would still have marker scribbles on it for days after I took off the tape. :doh:

Does this revelation mean that you're not all 'truth, justice, and the American way'?

I wasn't cutting off the sleeves of my only jersey every year; that's what the rubber bands were for.

And if you want a picture of my ass, just ask.

Was re-watching the Chiefs game and noticed that all of our DBs were wearing red gloves, presumably to match the color of the Chiefs jerseys. 

 

Will they wear white gloves this week?  Do DBs of all teams do this when they can find gloves that match the other team's jerseys?

 

I have wondered for years why all teams don’t always match the gloves to opponent jerseys (as much as possible).

Saw a YouTube short a few weeks ago of the Kelce’s podcast where they talked about DBs always wearing red gloves against KC to get away with grabbing the jerseys. 

Definitely something to it. 

 

KC being home team has choice of jersey colors. If opponents are doing that then they should just wear white jerseys,

White gloves it is!

Too bad Chiefs will not wear alternate uniforms - too bad for them.

 

Quote

Chiefs CEO and chairman Clark Hunt, who was asked about alternate uniforms this week, said he’s honoring his father, team founder Lamar Hunt. “It was something that my dad felt very strongly about, going all the way back to the early ’60s,” Hunt said. “He wanted a lot of continuity in the uniforms and we’ve tried to maintain that over the years. I think we have a very distinct brand with the red and white, and I don’t anticipate steering away from that anytime soon.”
