Do you like the new black uniforms?

[Gee!]

And there's no blue on bears or lions and no red on a falcon and no green on an eagle and no orange on a bronco.

Colors don't have to match the mascot.

Thats all great and all but the Cards are named after the color Cardinal Red, not the bird.. Regardless.. Its an alt jersey, nothing for anyone to get all in a huff about.. Just a change of pace.. Honestly there really only three colors the Cards should have associated with them .. Red, White and Black.. The yellow in the beak is just there, the way I see it.. Im just talking to everyone Pariah, not singling you out..

 

[Gee!]

Somewhere between no and meh. Nomeh...mohen..

Eh...screw it.. no. Not a fan of the look. I'd much rather see a black HELMET than a black UNIFORM.

Get some marketing help, MikeyB...soon.

For every person that wants a black helmet, there is someone like me that loves the white helmet and would chastize the front office for going to a black helmet..

 

[Gee!]

Dockett in the black jersey just makes so much sense too me. Thats definitely my next buy.

Bought one last nite.. Been looking for a new #90.. Was trying to get a pro bowl one, but could never find one (either time he went).. So when these came out.. I was like you.. #90? In black? Oh yes sir, thats it!

 

[lauraw]

The lettering and numbers should be red instead of white, though...I'll be getting Beanie Wells#26...

 

[chickenhead]

I said "meh" because they don't look bad, and it looks a lot better than the black Eagles or Lions jerseys, but they just don't make me feel Cardinal pride. I'm not sure how well the helmet is going to work. They either needed to incporporate gray into the jerseys to go with the facemaks (and why not? This is already a big departure) or have gone with black to tie in with the jersey the same way that, say, Auburn's white helmets do, or U of A's white helmets did in the 80s and 90s.

But then, I don't know how often they're going to wear these.

I like them. Got home last night and the wife told me she bought me an AW Black jersey and she also bought herself a Fitz black jersey.

I am a lucky man.

That supports my point in the post you responded to even more.

I teach at a community college in the Valley and this morning I saw that one of my students--who is not an Arizona Cardinals fan as far as I can tell--was wearing a black DRC jersey.

Let me just say that they look way better in person. The photographs don't really do them justice. The first time you look at them, they're kind of lame, but by the time my class was over I was trying to figure out how I could get my wife to let me have one.

I like it but even the most biased Cardinal fan would have to say it looks a bit too much like the black Falcon uniform. Have they announced which games these are to be worn at? i understand it is one pre-season game and two regular season games.

 

[Cardinals.Ken]

The main thing I find exciting is that Michael actually listened. Like the jerseys or not, you have to respect an owner that listens to you. I think this bodes well for the future and is another example of this not being the SOC.

If the poll numbers are indicative of the fan-base as a whole, you are right.

 

[Jetstream Green]

I dig them, a nice change between games from the red jerseys during the season. The Cardinals and the Falcons both have red and black so one can hardly say that makes it a reason to say they look the same, when one considers the whole package of the helmet with the jersey, the Cardinals look nothing like the Falcons uniforms.

I like them a lot

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

FCOL, its called and ALTERNATE Jersey...Basic colors are still there...it looks great and if it makes the team more money to stay competitive; I am all for it.

 

[joshstmarie]

Id really like to see some yellow in there to let people know its not the falcons.. like replace that red small strip with yellow instead of red.. he one that runs all over the jersey.

That would be actrocious.. Thank God they didnt do that.. Then everyone would really say we are trying to be the steelers..

 

[TRW]

With black helmets...

maybe.

 

[spyboots]

Don't like it. Isn't readily recognizable as being Cardinals. Yech.

 

[BigRedFan]

While there is nothing wrong with the way they look, there just isn't enough red in them; just those tiny red stripes. I guess the'yre trying to get a meaner look with the black; not like thats helped the Raiders lately.

 

[Nash2Amare]

Hopefully it's still a red sea at the games

 

[Brian in Mesa]

Do they come with a do-rag and a shiv since they're trying to appeal to the same crowd as the Raiders?

Nothing was wrong with the red. Leave it alone.

 

[Tyler]

BIM, because I like the color black I am a Raiders fan/thug??

Wear the red then B.

I am stoked we have an alternate and besides them being badass, its just another sign that this organization is different then the one we cheered for 8 years ago.

I'll wear the red with pride.

It's not about the organization being different...it's just conformity. "Uh, golly...practically every college and pro team has some sort of alternate black jersey...uh...we better get one too!!"
