jg4242; I thought for a moment we were talking about a fashion show. This is a football thread not a place to talk how cloths fit? :rolleyes:

LT was sweet... Although the peekaboo has grown on me over the last few years :)

I prefer to call the old logo "L7". LT is a crackhead that boinks 16 year-old hookers....

I wish I had a better picture of this, but my favorite BG jersey has always been the brown jerseys they used in certain games 06 - 07. Very good, classic look. I wouldn't mind returning to brown jerseys, or at least get a brown version of the current jersey and use them for a game or two.

Still like the LT much better. Although, I do agree with you, the peekaboo has grown on me as well; but, only when it's with the interlocking BG. I think it looks bad by itself.

picked up a schedule card today... the picture has the helmet with the tapered stripe and also featuring brown facemasks... it actually looked pretty sharp in the picture in my opinion

I think they looked really cool from what I could tell also, but I still couldn't tell from the picture I saw if the "BG" was still on the side. It did look like the new Falcon head was on it, I just really hope the "BG" is too.
GO BG!!!

I went back and looked at the photo (can't get it to post, it was a pdf archive) and yes, the facemask is not white on them as mentioned. The image was black and white so it's hard to say if they are brown or black. I wish I could see the side of the helmet to get a better look.

Ha ha, right. My guess is it would be. I was paying so much attention to the streak that I didn't even notice the facemask wasn't white. I liked the BG logo we've been using a lot. It's clear and without a doubt it is known we are "BG" when you see it. If they are adding the Falcon head this year, I just hope it's also with the "BG" as well. We made an effort to go with a recognizable mark, I would hate to see us get away from it already.
GO BG!!!

Saw the new helmet in person yesterday at the Sebo. 3 stripes at the front, tapering down to the back. Brown facemask, peekaboo logo on the side. I'm not sold on the stripe, but I like the facemask and the logo.
