Didn't someone post before the season that we were going to wear throwback jerseys in 2 games?

What happened to that and are we still gonna do it?

I believe we are wearing them in Atlanta.

William Henderson didn't have to run people over. His preferred method was levitation.

The Green Bay Packers will wear their blue and yellow throwback uniforms Dec. 5, when the team hosts the San Francisco 49ers.

A cold weather game was chosen because the team wanted to make sure the jerseys werent uncomfortable in warmer temperatures.

The uniforms are a modified version of the Packers 1929 uniforms. The team has the option of wearing them for the next five seasons, although they will apparently only wear them for one game in 2010.

New alternate uniform added, based on 1929 uniform: Navy jersey with navy numbers in large gold circle on chest, gold name and numbers on back. Canvas-colored pants, navy socks, brown helmet with gray facemask (to simulate leather helmet). The 1929 details have been updated to reflect current NFL uniform regulations: the circle, which was originally ~5 inches in diameter, has been enlarged, and the Reebok and NFL logos are retained in this uniform. The Packers have not yet announced when the alternate will be worn.

NFL regulations require each alternate to have a 5-season lifespan, so no other alternate can be introduced until 2015.

See the uniforms here

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

exactly. the only time to wear a throw back jersey on the road is in one of the division cities when they would be wearing them too.

Whats so funny? are you referring to how much I ripped on Rodgers? I always said if he can do it a few years in a row I would back him. Well I now have a green,white,throwback and pro bowl Rodgers jersey lol 😛

This brings up a 2nd thought. Historic franchises seem to be reluctant to change uniforms. I don't know the Packer's justification for not changing uniform design (other than tweaks such as # of stripes on the arm).

Wolf proposed this a while ago which as obviously gone nowhere because I think the league rejected the proposal

And apparently what the 2010 throwbacks looklike.

What do people think about the Packers making dramatic changes to their uniforms? Maybe not these designs, but any new revision?

packerfanoutwest (2h) : both games Watson missed, Packers won

Martha Careful (4h) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!

Mucky Tundra (14h) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol

buckeyepackfan (14h) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier

buckeyepackfan (14h) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol

Mucky Tundra (14h) : Jacobs gonna be OK???

Zero2Cool (14h) : Watson gonna be OK???

packerfanoutwest (18h) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath

packerfanoutwest (18h) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.

packerfanoutwest (18h) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed

Zero2Cool (21h) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them

Zero2Cool (21h) : I just checked. What tie breaker?

bboystyle (21h) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner

Zero2Cool (21h) : Ahh, ok.

bboystyle (21h) : yes due to tie breaker

Zero2Cool (21h) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.

Zero2Cool (21h) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?

bboystyle (21h) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference

Mucky Tundra (22h) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network

beast (22h) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th

beast (22h) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly

Zero2Cool (22h) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.

bboystyle (23h) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed

Mucky Tundra (23h) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv

Zero2Cool (23h) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno

beast (23h) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?

packerfanoutwest (23h) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground

Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.

beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?

beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.

beast (23-Dec) : No, with the Commanders beating the Eagles, Packers could have a good chance of 6th or 7th unless the win out

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think if Packers win, they are locked 6th with chance for 5th.

beast (23-Dec) : But it doesn't matter, as the Packers win surely win one of their remaining games

beast (23-Dec) : This is not complex, just someone doesn't want to believe reality

beast (23-Dec) : We already have told you... if Packers lose all their games (they won't, but if they did), and Buccaneers and Falcons win all theirs

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I posted it in that Packers and 1 seed thread

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I literally just said it.

packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : show us a scenario where Pack don't get in? bet you can't

Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Falcons, Buccaneers would need to win final two games.
