Zorn switches things up this year, joining the growing trend for warm-weather teams to wear white the first half of the season before switching to dark:

man i always like all our alternate jerseys. the burgandy helmets with the arrow and the ones from last year. i cant believe this but i think snyder is being cheap not wanting to spend on making alternate jerseys. i wish instead of white jerseys with burgundy pants it was white on white. i like those better

I still haven't gotten over the switch from burgundy jerseys and gold pants at home 28 or 29 years ago! :(

You're kidding with this right?

Snyder is "being cheap" but NOT having alternate jerseys? After all the heat he had last year for coming out with "throwback jerseys" supposedly just so he could make an extra buck?

I would like a GOLD alternate jersey, similar to the one the Wizards have. The Wizrds seem to play well with theirs. Not to mention Gold jerseys would look really cool and would probably blind the opposing team.

I mean actually gold, not the crappy yellow throwback color. I hate the yellow. The yellow looks like a freaking school bus. ;furious;

This color would be sweet:

Danny's money-spending self should have the alternate jerseys sprayed with 24k gold dust. :lol:
How much do you figure those would sell for online or at the store? :shock:

A few years ago, I think I remember LaVar saying something about a burgundy on burgundy uniform with black shoes. I wouldn't mind seeing that.

My 2 cents

yea but with gold stripes on the pants and white numbers outlined in gold would look cool.

:thump: Thank you, Captain Obvious. You're kidding, right? I know what the team colors are. As MDSKINSFAN said, there are still gold stripes on the pants, jerseys and helmets, and the face mask is gold. I just thought the burgundy on burgundy with black shoes would look cool. I doubt they'll ever do it, but LaVar did mention it.

Don't like that idea.... sounds like a college color scheme.

Please quote where I said or insinuated "retarded." I said it sounded like a college color scheme is all, which, I guess if you wanted just to argue, you could twist to say I meant retarded. Whatever floats your boat dude...
