Dennis, happy to discuss the Shamrock uniforms (although that’s probably a separate issue). I’m not suggesting the school colors or uniforms should change; I’m merely making an observation on a united crowd color.

Regarding HHG’s suggestion of gold: I struggle to find the proper definition of gold, as it either veers toward “pasty white skin tone” (which certainly does *not* pop on television) or moves toward a vibrant electric/Ann-Arborish hue, which is SUPER undesirable. For all of The Shirt’s past valiant efforts to coalesce around a gold/yellow presentation, it’s demonstrated how difficult it is to translate a jewel tone into cotton fabric (and hence why kelly green is a sensible choice).

I agree with the Blue and Gold thing (I think gold stands out just as much in a crowd as green). But your stance on the alt uniforms is just out of touch. Every school does them now, and they actually strengthen the brand and increase sales. If you think it makes them look like fools, everyone who buys those jerseys would disagree, and you only have to shield your eyes for one Saturday a year.

one of the many bennies of old age is forgetting Cowboys’ victories.

Said with respect and whatever. IMO they had class until Jerry Jones bought the team.

spell much?

NOTRE DAME = BRAND = DISTICTION !!

We’ve won 2 in the past decade!

Sad Cowboys Fan

I said about 8 years ago that if they ever market those football practice shirts with the shoulder stripes I would get one, but (as far as I know) that never happened.
Now I content myself with the occasional Patriots’ shirt or something Celtics-like.
I’ve had a healthy dislike for all things Cowboy for years, and Jerry Jones’ continual screwing up down there makes me happy – if memory serves it’s something like 22 years since they won a playoff game, and that is good.

BTW – Troy Niklas signed with the Pats.

I actually learned something in this one myself. I new the Cowboys were the most valuable, but didn’t realize how large the gap was. It’s pretty insane.

I wasn’t really looking for an answer, but thanks for the info in any case.
