ans4e64 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 plus dont you have to declare new uniforms to the nfl like a year beforehand or something? im not sure about that, but i remember we knew we were getting new unis a year before hand, same with the sabres, could just be coincidence though, i really have no clue.

High draft pick, big audience, new website colors... If you aren't changing unis, how do you change the ENTIRE look of your main marketing tool?

Josh Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 The Bills update their website design for each new season (or two), so I wouldn't look too much into it. However...yes, the fact that the colors are different is interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So there you have it. 672491[/snapback] Ah, but there's a loophole wide enough for Bennie Anderson to fit through. From the Atlanta Falcons official team website: "However, a team may re-designate its pre-approved third uniform as its primary without a waiting period, as the Falcons did this offseason when they designated their red jersey (the third, alternate jersey from last season) as their official home garb."

C.Biscuit97 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 God, I hope so. I don't think our uniforms are as bad as everyone says. however, this has just been the most average and non-exciting era of the Bills in a long time. Change is good.

Hollywood Donahoe Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 You guys should go to those throwbacks you wore this past season. Those looked pretty nice, I must say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go back and look. It is not predicated on a new uniform color scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
