  • You have no idea how much this pissed me off this year. I was just hoping that one team would have been cool and said, "You know what, we'll wear are aways at home this weeks so you guys can wear your Browns at least once this year." For some reason I don't feel like the Steelers are going to do this for us this week.

  • Ok, so we generally have two uniforms for this season:

    All whites were designated for home games.

    Brown tops and white pants were designated for away games.

    HOWEVER,

    Every away game we played this year, the home team decided they wanted to wear their dark jerseys. Hence, we never had a chance to wear are brown tops. I know this is dumb of me but that upsets me. I wanted to see the Browns with some uniform variety, and I can't remember the last time the Browns wore the same exact uniform color all year long...maybe since the 50's.

    Sorry, just needed to get that out there.

    It is my understanding that the home team has always had the choice of jerseys. Most home teams opt to wear the colored jerseys at home.

    The story that was passed to me from my Dad is that Modell wanted to treat our fans to seeing the opposing teams in their colors and, therefore, we started wearing whites at home. Only a couple of teams do this on a regular basis (Dallas comes to mind).

    i like the brown jerseys too. From a fan standpoint, i'd be happy seeing the whites every game if they could fix the speaker system in the stadium.

  • wow, with all the shit in the world and all else that is the cleveland browns and their shit-ass season...........AND THIS IS WHAT PISSES YOU OFF?

    you all have problems.

    See, I would say this makes 100% sense. But in 2010, our home jerseys were are brown tops...so...

    Right. The tradition from the 60's hasn'y been applied consistently. 2010 is a good example. We've seen the hideous orange jerseys too.

    BTW, there is a theory that the teams that wear whites have a tiny edge in uniform recognition each Sunday (FWIW). If true, we need every edge we can get.

    IIRC that was the old NFL guideline. And, yes, the idea was it allowed home team fans to see all the other teams' colors. Not sure when the practice completely fell apart, but could have been when color TV was well established.

    Personally I like the ALL-whites... and that includes FACE MASKS... (shoes optional...) sport-smiley-009.gif

    Was never a fan of the white facemasks. They make the players look toyed....like a toyger.

    Grey ones make em look mean.
