I'll believe it when it's confirmed by someone other than a Models employee

Say they do switch back to the Kelly green but keep the same logo...you happy sad or disgusted? Personally I'd be happy because Kelly green is the Eagles I grew up on...the old symbol is the shot but I can look past it

a man can dream cant he?

im with you....anything but the teal green would make me happy....a kelly green with an old logo would not have me jerking off tho....I actually have a sweatshirt from I guess 96 that is kelly green with a new logo and its not terrible at all

I saw that and was gonna post it but dudes credibility takes a hit when he says they weren't going to wear midnight green anymore because of the Nike screwup

I think its 100% accurate

You wish it's 100% accurate.

Didn't Smolenski say a week or so ago it's not happening?

Winning a Super Bowl or going back to Kelly green...

Which would bring you greater joy?

first year of them hell yeah....but in general bangin uni's can uplift the worst of seasons
Title: Re: !!!!!!!!!!
Post by: PhillyPhreak54 on October 26, 2014, 03:26:56 AM
I love a clean uni as much as anyone

But that's insane

Seeing the Tigers in baseball losing isn't cushioned by the fact they have the best uni's in baseball

When the Buddy teams couldn't win in the playoffs it wasn't made better because their uniforms looked great.

PS - I need to find a Byron Evans. Mitchell and Ness need to get off their asses

This might be the best rumor ever even if there's less than a zero percent of it actually happening.

Love the McCoy meme, though.

Those kelly green jerseys are gonna look awesome with the 15 sweat patches, quilted shoulders, and five inch wide collars with the little scribble on it.

semi-serious question:

Does/did Lurie's wife really have something to do with the uniform color, or is that just one of our many, not-funny :CF inside jokes?
Title: Re: !!!!!!!!!!
Post by: PhillyPhreak54 on October 26, 2014, 10:27:37 AM
Word on the street is that when Lurie bought the team she is the one who issued the directive that they would change the uniforms because she didn't like the kelly green.

I don't recall ever seeing anything in print but have heard it for years in the Philly media

she may or may not have at one point in time....but whether she did or not she has zero input now

Post by: General_Failure on October 26, 2014, 10:57:35 AM
All that matters now is if Lurie actually wants to change it, if the NFL's dumb jersey changing policy will let them, and if Nike can buy the right color material.
Title: Re: !!!!!!!!!!
Post by: Rome on October 26, 2014, 11:02:33 AM
Lurie isn't changing it simply because the fans want it changed and are fairly militant about it.  I honestly don't know a single fan that loves the hideous team color we're saddled with now.  It's truly disgusting.

I want the Kelley green back. We can worry about the logos after we get the right color uni's back.
Title: Re: !!!!!!!!!!
Post by: General_Failure on October 26, 2014, 03:23:17 PM
Bring the kelly green back, keep the logo or make it a full bird in that style, lose the font, forget silver pants ever existed.

I'd like to see the logo be a more authentic Eagles head with something that actually looks like feathers on it and not the new millennium brand that it looks like now. But get the Kelly green right first.
