      See, that's cool. Too bad it craps all over Steelers "tradition."

                Of course...I stole it off the internet somewhere myself. Great looking designs dizz! I finally fixed the mailbox thing by the way. Guess I had to empty all incoming and outgoing messages.

                  That would be very cool. Just not in Setember in Florida. Maybe it could be our 3rd uniform like the Penguins have.

                    Why change them? I can understand teams that can't draw fans, or don't have the national draw that we have changing them up. Thing is our fans are fans through and through. We love that the general theme is the same as it has been since the merger. You don't change tradition in one night, you do it slowly. If at all. I would be disgusted if we made a change like the Seahawks did. We have a tradition of winning. We are one of the most recognizable teams in the NFL. We don't need to draw fans by changing our uniform.

                      My thinking had nothing to do with gaining new fans or anything like that. It was more about the evolution of the brand. There are new styling conventions and designs that could be incorporated with the classic ("traditional" if you will) look that the Steelers have had.

                          I wasn't replying to you in particular with that post. Just how teams in general will change their "brand" to attract new consumers. we don't need that. I like making fun of teams like Seatle that tweak their look (some significantly like seatle some not so much like arizona who made a meaner looking cardinal a few years ago).

                            FWIW- I really liked the changes that Detroit, Seattle, Tampa Bay, Denver and Arizona have made over the years. Not so much with San Diego and Buffalo, but you can't win 'em all.
