I Love Uniform Talk
-
Find me a quote from a professional football player that says he plays better in a more stylish uniform.
You won't ... But if you did, I would call bullshit on it because once the bullets start flying you don't even remember how you "felt" before the game.
Its a fucking war out there.
You know what makes football teams play better?
Good quarterbacks.
Teams with good quarterbacks usually win, teams with bad quarterbacks usually lose.
Then comes coaching.
And blocking and tackling.
Speed, route running and executing schemes.
Catching the fucking football.
Not one game was won by a fucking uniform stripe ever.
You guys are fucking idiots.

I don't think anybody thinks the uniform will cause them to play better. Sticking by this arguement makes you short sighted. I already gave you several other reasons why is want to see the uniform changed.

"WHy is it other coaches and regimes come through Cleveland ththave won previously elsewhere but can't replicate it in Cleveland? I'll tell you. It's the uniforms. The are dull, boring and uninteresting. If we had a logo, and some new unis to go along with it, I gaurantee the players would "feel" better look better and PLAY better."
--Soju 9/10/13
And they will go play somewhere else and we'll have 50 more years of 5-11 seasons. Fuck 5-11. Fuck Tradition. I want to win at all costs. If a cooler uniform pumps our guys up to win, do it.
--Cysco Kid 9/10/13
If you feel better you work better. It's as simple as that.
--Cysco Kid
Actually You said it.
In that article you linked, those players are saying it would be cool to change them up. I'm saying it's OK to change them up (Same colors, same helmet ... that's all I care about).
None of the players are saying they would play better.
It's a fucking ridiculous notion, you know it, and now you are backtracking.
You act like I don't want the uniforms to change. I don't care. Change them up. Just start winning.
But I'm telling you ... the helmet will be the same and the colors will be the same.
And if we start winning I bet it's because we finally found a fucking quarterback not because Josh Gordon woke up with new piping down the side of the unis.

Perhaps, from a psychological standpoint, you could argue that a different colour would make them play better. At a guess, brown is a colour likely to make the wearer slightly more depressed. If they're surrounded by it, like on a line, it might have a compounded effect. But, of course, that's all extremely tentative guesswork. I'm no psychologist - I did a real degree and have a real job

You're deluded. Would you feel better at work in a burlap sack or an Armani suit?
If you feel better you work better. It's as simple as that.

I don't like wearing suits. I work in an office that is very casual, and that works for me. I'm a t-shirt and jean guy the rest of the time, so the Armani suit analogy is a bad analogy for me.

I didn't say or would actually make them play better. Get some reading comprehension. I Said it would make them feel better and when you feel better your performance tends to be bettter. That's not a magical cure that's cause and effect.

Who cares? Substitute whatever you like for Armani suit and leave burlap sack alone. Which do you prefer? It doesn't matter anyway. You guys love the uniform, that's great. Hoopty damn doo doo. A lot of people would also like to see a bit of a change.

LOL this is the greatest thread ever, behind the Cheerleader thread!!!!

The 50 somethings get so mad about the uniform it cracks me up, When Otto and Jim was a round...Just stop you are talking over 50 yrs ago!!!!! Come on man
Last time we won anything was 1964. how many people remember that game on this board????
Browns first 4 championships 1946-1949 THEY WORE WHITE HELMETS
browns last 4 championships 1950,54,55,64 THE WORE ORANGE HELMETS
We the Browns say fuck tradition, and we have changed the Helmet over the cours e the past 15 yrs look it up!!! We also changed the face mask as well
According to all you tradition people The Browns will wear White Helmets for home games and orange helmets for away games. Thats tradition right???? Thats when the Browns were winning wayyyyyyback in there was no Color TV.
Even better!!!!!! Change Our tradition says no change thats what you want ok...
Give me your nice TV that you watch the Browns on Sunday with, and your Smart phone, and your laptop, computer. Because Traditionalist dont need that stuff

this thread reeks of total gayness

This I like! I'm 40. I started becoming aware of the Browns when they were the Kardiac Kids, and had the orange pants. I have no issue with them bringing that look back!

pay me $1 mil a year and i'd dress up like a french fry and stand out in the middle of a parking lot doing handstands all day.....(yeah, maybe i could pull off one handstand a day, but you get my drift).
just don't understand why it is SOOOOOOO fuggin important for the browns to do anything to the uniforms? i mean does it keep you up at night? you should worry about shit like GOD i hope there isn't another military draft or shit like, man i hope i don't get my fiat repossessed.
Because....the browns....blow. that's why. Try to spark a change from somewhere. They. Suck. The glory days are over a long long time ago. Cleveland is my home so I can't root for the Pittsburgh Steelers or the Baltimore ravens but this isn't Jim browns team anymore. Jim Brown is a septegenarian. Brian sipe had his one good season the year I was born. Bernie led the browns to the best record in the NFL when I was what....five? Seven? The same old same old browns have sucked and looked crappy doing it my whole life. Unless a miracle happens and weeden shapes the fuck up in a real hurry they'll go 5-11 again. Go out and get the next Peyton Manning and I won't give two shits about the uniform.
You idiots know what's really stupid and gay? Living in the past! Most of us can't even remember the years of your treasured memories. They've got to give us something to be excited about and it sure as hell looks,like its not going to be a winning product any time soon

Here is the flaw in your logic: you apparently think that the Browns suckage is due to their uniform color scheme, and you apparently think that changing that color scheme will somehow magically change the Browns on field performance.
Now, if the competition the Browns were engaged in was, say "Project Runway" that type of logic might be applicable.
But this ain't project runway.
If every single NFL team were required to wear some variation on say the Penn State uniform, a single color jersey and a white helmet with a matching single stripe down the middle....one team with blue, one red, one green, one black, one yellow, one Brown, one orange, one teal, one silver, one gold, etc. etc. etc, and simply name the teams by those colors, the Reds, the Blues, the Browns,......it would not matter. What would matter is that the teams with the best players, coaches, schemes, talent evaluators, would be the team that win.
You apparently have lost sight of that fact while looking into your kaleidascope.

The don't need it....to watch a football game....or to have their team win a football game.
What they need to do is to concentrate on how to win football games.
If any team thought that changing colors meant more winning, we would have team color changes every other year.

No orange pants. Why not just install a disco ball over the stadium if you do that.

Sorry I have a soft spot for the orange pants. And there could be many different combos using orange, brown and white. At any rate, I think we can all agree that no matter what tweaks they do to the uniform, don't screw with the helmet, and don't put a damn logo on it!

Presumably the Broncos are also having difficulties using an orange shirt and white pants?

I am not asking them to change to colors we are what we are, but the pic of Trich would be nice, also use a very dark drown would be nice let me find some pics...
