that is AWFUL...particularly considering how great their all black uniforms looked...someone already said, but these are freaking soccer jerseys
There is a little controversy brewing about the Falcons new threads in the image that you see above. Like many other sports franchises, the Falcons have tried to keep there new look a secret until the unveiling today. But it appears some fans at a Falcons BBS board have let the secret early. I sure hope some of the insiders can do the same for us Rocket fans when it comes to the Rocks new uni's. Real deal? Web site gives sneak peek at uniforms By SCOTT PEACOCKE Atlanta Journal-Constitution Staff Writer The Falcons are ready to break out their new threads today, but some impatient fans think they've already gotten a peek. The team has treated the new look (its first since 1990) like your basic state secret. But a fan Web site, www.falconsroost.com, this week posted a photo which is purported to be of the new home jersey. Trace Mashburn posted this jersey on his fan site, falconsroost.com, saying it was part of the new Falcons uniform to be unveiled officially today. Falcons officials won't confirm or deny that it's the real thing. The site's owner, Trace Mashburn, says the image came from an NFL apparel Web site, which put the image up last weekend. It mysteriously disappeared after a couple of days, replaced by the current jersey. The Falcons refused to say whether the jersey posted on Mashburn's site was the real deal. "Obviously there is a lot of excitement and anticipation," said Falcons spokesman Aaron Salkin. "I can't speak for the validity of everything that you see on the Internet." Mashburn says reaction to the jersey among visitors to his Web site was mixed. Most didn't embrace the shirt as readily as they did the team's new logo, which was unveiled last month. Mashburn is in that category. "If you ask me, it looks a little like a bowling shirt," he said. Fans can get a glimpse at the complete new look -- helmets and road uniforms included -- modeled by Mike Vick, Keith Brooking, Peerless Price and others at the Mall of Georgia at 1 p.m. today.
Detroit Panthers?? Those players look real happy with their mascot.... Atlanta's is waaaaaay too busy.
Is the Lions uniform that different for their old one, i think the publicity is just to make sure people know they are in the NFL !!
