Vikes to unveil new uniforms today (4/27).

[trotsky]

Found a link to what looks like a credible leak of the new design. Fear not, fellow Vikes fans, looks like the new uniforms aren't going to be Ravenized!

1. Why

...Do NFL teams feel the need to put their team names on the jersey. What the fuck is this, High School? I think that just looks tacky.

2. blah, I think they look more blue, then purple.......which is actually

just fine by me, then when I wear purple I won't be reminded of the viqueens. LOL, I AM a Packer fan. :evilgrin:

5. The horns stay!....

...I would have seriously been pissed if they had taken the horns off the best looking helmut in the NFL...:D

6. I was able to attend the unveiling at the Megamall last night.

Great event. You should have heard the cheer when they held up the new helmet and Childress announced, "The horns are staying!"

Tommy Mason, Jim Marshall, Joey Browner, and Randall McDaniel were all there showing the evolution of the uniform, each wearing a replica from their playing days. Then they brought out the new unis. It was a lot of fun.

9. I wish I could have been there

Had other things going on!

Sounds like a good time was had by all!

7. Thank the Gods for that!

I hated the idea of Ravenizing the Vikings uniform.
