USABomberfan Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 I say why not? Worked ok against MTL, and since new unis are the thing this year and every one else seems to like them, let's add a twist instead of always wearing the retro unis for this game.

Worked ok against MTL, and since new unis are the thing this year and every one else seems to like them, let's add a twist instead of always wearing the retro unis for this game. The reason why not is the shortage of Gravol and air-sickness bags. Logan007 and Noeller 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you're not...but this post is close to the troll variety, seeing that you know how the majority feels, or should, about those ugly clothes they wore. iso_55, Noeller, Logan007 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BattleLevel Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 I don't hate these new unis with a passion, but the biggest problems with these signature jerseys are that they don't have any gold coloring, the large W on the front makes it harder to identify individual players on the field, and for a jersey that was supposed to be new, fresh, and exciting, these things are really boring. Hopefully the Bombers only wear these uniforms for the requisite amount of games and then send 'em to the sale rack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IC Khari Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 Hey, how come the rEdBlAcKs don't have to wear their "tartan nightmare" helmets today? The league made us wear the pigeon poop ones. No fair I thought the goal was to make the teams look as ugly as possible in these signature things. Ottawa doesn't look too bad in the regular lids Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuranBoldenRules Posted August 24, 2014 Report Share Posted August 24, 2014 They should FedEx them to Southern Ontario and let the Argos wear them on Labour Day. Alternatively, we could have a bonfire. Mr. Perfect, blitzmore, Chaosmonkey and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be easy enough to take off the W and put on an A. At least we could recoup some of the costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im guessing obviously but maybe even the cfl might be bothered by it as it isn't the teams "official" jersey if your mixing and matching.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALuCsRED Posted August 25, 2014 Report Share Posted August 25, 2014 Ottawa changed their helmet because they didn't like the color of the helmet. The Bombers used to mix and match pants with the old whites, golds, and blues in the past. And, We'd still be wearing the jersey, which should sell more. No one is going to buy a signature helmet as they aren't for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
