Posted September 9, 201311 yr comment_20180 Even though I say it every time it comes up. Can we PLEASE use these royal blue uniforms on a permanent basis?! Is there anyone out there that honestly thinks THIS is better than THIS
September 9, 201311 yr comment_20182 no, no there isn't. I think Reebok might be a bit upset if we were to switch though. There's probably contractual obligations.
September 9, 201311 yr comment_20184 Those uniforms were glorious out there today. Ghosts of the past etc. etc.
September 9, 201311 yr comment_20192 Inaugural win at IGF in Royal Blues... love it. Since the navy uniforms with the lightning bolt ball showed up I've wished for the royal blue and the old W. Only Charles Roberts, Milt Stegall, Khari Jones and a select few others have given the lightning bolt any positive association for me. For the sake of the fans - yes Royal Blues please!
September 9, 201311 yr comment_20198 Those things are gorgeous. I would love for us to use them on a full time basis.
September 9, 201311 yr comment_20201 Jeff Bannon said on 1290 last week that if they won the game in these they would look at wearing them for the rest of the season.
September 9, 201311 yr comment_20204 And they have the balls to say that they listened to the fans when designing the new jerseys... Reebok can go **** themselves. Give us the royal blues permanently.
September 9, 201311 yr comment_20228 The shoulder stripes were screwed up..Some players had the big middle strip white & others had the stripe gold like it is supposed to be. I wonder how that happened???
September 9, 201311 yr comment_20271 Every time I saw a close up of greaves or Sorensen at quick glacé it looked like Wally or battle. 80s jerseys playin 80s defence!

September 9, 201311 yr comment_20323 The fans, myself included, have been begging for Royal Blues. I don't know why the team refuses to listen.

September 9, 201311 yr comment_20329 The shoulder stripes were screwed up..Some players had the big middle strip white & others had the stripe gold like it is supposed to be. I wonder how that happened??? I was told it was a screw-up by Reebok and that the team was furious about it. Is this the first ever case of a team playing a game with different jerseys on different players? So weird.
September 9, 201311 yr comment_20332 While I think the color is beautiful, I wish that they had gotten the number font right and I wish that the cool vintage W logo wasn't all squished onto the tiny sleeves of a modern football jersey.
September 9, 201311 yr comment_20333 Is this the first ever case of a team playing a game with different jerseys on different players? So weird. The last rev of the Calgary road jersey had two slightly different styles that they'd wear in a single game. The black stripes on the back of the jerseys were different for certain players. See how #28 has a long-sleeved jersey with a black stripe going straight down the sleeve, where #90 has a short-sleeved jersey with a fat arc going from the armpit to under the nameplate. I'm guessing the Stamps used different style jerseys to accommodate different styles of shoulder pads.
September 9, 201311 yr Author comment_20345 Saskatchewan had two different "cuts" of their jerseys last year. It looked pretty stupid.
September 9, 201311 yr comment_20569 So if we keep wearing these at home I assume the team will all have the same gold arm stripe next time?
September 10, 201311 yr comment_20697 Very strange screw-up on Reebok's end. How does something like that happen and no one spots it? Anyway, those royal blues are probably one of the best looking outfits in the league. Hope they become permanent as apparently they brought us some good luck.
