    Lol I mean BEFORE a championship thay doesn’t happen 
    Oh, yeah, for sure. They had a fucking party for a guy eating a rotisserie chicken on the pier behind the Walmart. 

    Freak show of an area. And that's OK!

    Haha, it's sounding like Howie gave Gannon the easiest out imaginable and being professionally "fired" in the best way possible. I cannot believe how much of a Howie Stan I've become, but if people want to put their tinfoil hats on I'm totally here for it.

    ALSO, yeah, total homer but  Hurts could have totally won MVP for that game even with the loss. Better player from beginning to end. Just ran out of runway damnit...... damnit damnit damnit

    Did I mention goddamnit time moving on does not make this feel better lol

    Jacksonville coming in strong at #5. Also look forward to the Chiefs winning again and continuing with their aggrievance of disrespect:

    Jags also adding Calvin Ridley. Article doesn't even mention that.

    I would rather not lose to Andy and Doug in back-to-back years. Don't think this fragile psyche could handle that.

    it's only happened one time that a player on the losing team got Super Bowl MVP.  Hurts was awesome but the fumble TD kills any argument for him being MVP from the losing team.

    And I just hope Krasner hunts down and prosecutes the kids who beat up the guy at the Train station at Temple yesterday as he does the Delco boys who overturned the car before the Super Bowl.  Something tells me he won't though.

    Hahaha.
    I mean, I still think nobody should care what players say before or after
    Who cares.
    The wives though?  Think it matters even less, but it makes me laugh more.

    I can honestly stare, wistfully, at that helmet for hours.

    What's going on? Are they bringing those back? I guess that old logo doesn't match the logo that's, you know, made out in the 200 level of the teams' stadium.

    They were waiting for the helmet rules to change to bring back the old-school Kelly green unis (rule used to be iirc that you could only use one helmet). That change happened last year, so here we are, they now have Kelly green w/ gray/silver alternate unis. I'm sure a formal announcement is coming in the offseason.

    My hope is this ultimately erases the shitty unis of the last 27 years.

    So at this point those "alternates" will be for just a couple games, right? I mean, they never needed a helmet rule change to actually just go back to our beloved kelly greens.

    Yeah I would think this will replace the black unis? Really hope it's not like a Thursday Night alternate or something bogus like that.

    When they did the Kellys in 2010 that was before the rule was put in place:

    I'd guess right now the Kelly green merch is close to 50/50 of sales, or as close to that for a color that hasn't been used other than once in the last 27 years. Again, iirc, I think this is how the Giants ended up transitioning to the 'NY' on their helmets over 'Giants', which looks way better imo, so hopefully the same move makes a change end up being permanent.

    Just rip the band aid off and make kelly green the primary uniforms already. Nike screwed up the midnight green color ten years ago. Looked better with Reebok. 

    I will say though....if the current unis had silver pants, it would be a pretty big improvement.

    That's my only beef at all, though. I'll take a crisp white over the silver, but I'm nitpicking.

    Silver > White. I feel strongly about this. 

    While we're talking uniforms....I hate how there are no stripes in most teams socks (which are basically compression pants) nowadays. I also hate how they socks are now usually the same color as the pants, which makes it look like they're wearing leotards. I also hate how the pants now barely reach their knees. Most of them are basically wearing shorts.

    Grinds my gears. Really grinds my gears.

    I vote for silver pants. Or shorts or whatever they are.
