get ready to hurl....
Apparently the color rush chart leaked on twitter. They got us rocking gold unis. So it will be either Gold vs Black (Detroit) on thanksgiving or Gold vs White (dallas) in our other Thursday game. The gold/white is probably unlikely so I think it's going to be vs Detroit.

Re: get ready to hurl....
wtf is this about? what possible purpose does it serve to have one time uniforms that are just single color blotches?? It seems a whole bunch of silliness with poor visual impact. There are far more important things to focus on and it seems like a very lame marketing move.

I think the "color rush" promotion is only for Thursday night games so it will probably be for Vikes vs. Dallas.Boon wrote:Apparently the color rush chart leaked on twitter.

It's going to be painful to see the Vikes wearing almost entirely yellow uniforms. Painful and wrong...
I hate this whole "color rush" idea with a passion.

If it counts for anything, PFT is reporting that only one team will wear the colors and the other will wear all white to avoid any color blindness issues.
Granted, I don't want the Vikings to wear yellow but I still have a yellow Carter jersey that I wear during the Play Offs.PFT wrote:Reading between the lines, Rooney’s comments suggest that the league’s mandate regarding the Color Rush concept includes a requirement that one team will wear solid colors and the other will wear white on white. Which would definitely solve the colorblind problem for every potential combination of hues and shades.

Is this legit? I mean, look at the Raiders, why would that be their color? In either case, it's dumb. Damn Nike.
Re: get ready to hurl....
Yes, but it's not on a Thursday night. Supposedly, the color rush uniforms will only be worn for the TNF games.S197 wrote:Lions game is also on a Thursday
It's not clear if it's legit but you're right, the Raiders color makes no sense.Is this legit? I mean, look at the Raiders, why would that be their color? In either case, it's dumb. Damn Nike.

Oh I see. For some reason I always thought the Lions play the night game on Thanksgiving.Mothman wrote: Yes, but it's not on a Thursday night. Supposedly, the color rush uniforms will only be worn for the TNF games.

Im not a uniform stiff by any means, I think there are alot of people that hate this gimmick based on the premise of it being just that, a gimmick.
I don't however, no, not at all.
I hate this crap because it looks stupid and bad, no other reason, the same idea with better actual results wouldn't bother me, but this crap looks so weak..
I have wanted a gold alternate for the Packers for years, it sucks that this is what I get. Hopefully they will look ok, but I doubt it.

It's awful. I'm sure soon the NFL will run out of funding sources and do what the NBA just approved: sponsor space on jerseys. It's coming.
