Bring Back Brown

Post by BGDrew »

While I agree that the burnt orange is a very original aspect of our team, I think we really need to make a connection with our past and go back to brown sweaters. I'm thinking of the classic brown but with the updated font and logos. If not a primary, how about a special third jersey for the game in Toledo?

Yeah, the last thing I see them doing is spending more money than they have to on Hockey, which is a crying shame because Brown is Beautiful. I would love to see a 3rd sweater but I don't see it happening in the near future unless they can raffle off the orange ones to make money for the brown ones. Unless they raffle off the brown ones after a one-time use.

The brown will always be dear to me since that's what they wore when I was in school but I think I actually like the current orange sweaters better.
I love people who can laugh at themselves. It saves me the effort.

They already have to buy new sweaters every year, might as well get them now. One of the problems with our agreement with adidas is that adidas doesn't make any hockey gear. We have to get jerseys then slap an adidas patch over the logo. Most other teams get their jerseys and kits for nearly nothing thanks to the agreement.

LOL!!
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."
