Staff report

packersjersey.jpgThe Green Bay Packers on Friday unveiled retro alternate uniforms with blue jerseys that they will wear next season, possibly against the Bears.

The uniforms are throwbacks to 1929 season when the Packers won their first title and feature brown helmets to simulate leather.

Packers president Mark Murphy said the team will wear the uniforms only at home, possibly for two games and possibly against the Bears.

"It would be nice to use it against one of the original NFL teams we played in that era," Murphy said. "But I don't know if that's possible."

As an 80 year old, miserable old SOB, these retro's are one of the things that are wrong with the NFL. People usually attend games to see a football game not a fashion statement. These travesties belong with the end zone follies and the illegal "Lambeau leap". It use to be a delay of game penalty to go out the back of the end zone on purpose.
No contract. Bring on the strike teams. Play football instead of the current offerings.
Bah, humbug...

I like em.
And I hate the Packers.

LOL good work packers. Those are hideous.

Be neat if the Bears did the same!

i actually loved Broncos uni's. Its the eagles who should burn theirs

Actually, they're Notre Dame's colors. Curly Lambeau played for Knute Rockne.

I like it! Packers wearing the Bears' colors.

As long as we WIN! they could be wearing a thong for all I care.....Go BEARS !

Its not as bad as the Broncos one last year but still awful none the least. Theres a reason these things are retro. Because they're too ugly to be the modern uniforms. I guess people will buy them anyway which is the point.
