My guess is that Woody would wonder what to do and had guys like Glat tell him things like "sign Tebow and sell tickets" and "Sanchez is handsome and Latino and will appeal to that demographic." When Woody comes back, leave Chris in charge. With any luck, Woody ends up in Gitmo or beheaded at Bastille2020 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks weird and should’ve been an obvious non starter in the design IMO, at the very least, the helmet needed a white stripe down the center. It's all green. Not a fan. I much preferred our previous uniforms. I would absolutely fire whoever was in charge of this embarrassingly bad rebrand. We went from one of the best uni's in the NFL to among the very worst. Those horizontal shoulder stripes are an abomination. But we've been through this before and, ultimately, nobody will care very much if they win.

Nah, most of us dont think theyre an "abomination" or that people need to be fired for making a uniform some dont like. I'd be they figured a new uni, like when the new "old" parcells uniform was realise would have some who didnt like them. They figured 1000% would love them.

Bugg Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 The Costanza of team presidents. The WSS was never going to happen, Doctoroff pretended it was a lock. ANYONE who has brain function and has lived in NYC for 5 minutes knew it would never go forward. Instead they wasted years and millions instead of either going to Flushing or making this sh*thouse so much more. Glatt may have only gotten to the party in 2012, but he did nothing to make the gameday experience nay better. We have the worst parking, concessions and parking of any stadium that I have been to. NYC has a mess of new stadiums and arenas, and this despite the highest price tag is the worst of the bunch. The rebrand is an embarrassment. We had classic stylish uniforms, and now we'er Saskatchewan or Michigan State. Their big ideas; drum lines and CFL uniforms. Oh, great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Maxman Posted August 31, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2019 I just tweeted this, so I will post it here. This is the JetNation official statement. Here are my thoughts, if anything the non football side was doing was interfering then this move makes sense. Neil was fan friendly and behind the scenes maybe they were pushing for a level of access that the football people weren't happy with. I kind of hope it is something like that, because Neil seems like a good guy who really cared about the fans. Over the years I had several meetings with Neil. He would invite me to the facility and I met him in his office a few times. The first time I was certain that I was getting in trouble. Neil emailed me directly, we setup a meeting, then the PR and Marketing departments heard and they setup meetings with me. I was like damn which one of you got me in trouble now. The thing is, he just wanted to talk about the fan experience. The first time I met him he asked a ton of questions about being a season ticket holder and he also asked what I thought Jets fans were feeling based on what I saw here. He told me a year or two later that he preferred reading the forum because the posts were longer than tweets. He also told me he liked reading threads because he could just read what people were thinking on one topic. I met him several times over the years, he stopped by our tailgate and I had numerous email exchanges with him. He never once asked us to delete or change anything that was written here. He once told me if we mess up the criticism is warranted. Definitely a stand up guy. That is why I hope this was done because somehow it gets the Jets closer to winning. And that he didn't simply lose some office politics battle. Either way, good luck Neil with whatever is next. 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SAR I Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 5 hours ago, Peace Frog said: I am a died in the wool white helmet guy and I LOVE the new helmets. Wish the jerseys were a little closer in color. The helmets are a metallic gradient while the jerseys are a solid color fabric. The helmet runs from a green that's the same color as the jerseys down to an almost blck. Because our jerseys have an element of black in them, they work. TV cameras make fabrics and plastics look different. If there's an NFL team with a gradient helmet, it's going to mismatch the jersey on TV.

Which when you think of putting together a new “uniform” might be something you would try to do. Because it’s, you know, a uniform. We didn't go with a solid color helmet like the Packers. We went with a gradient style helmet, one that changes shades dynamically, I believe we're the only team in the NFL with that type of technology. Plain green helmets look dreadful. Ours shift in color based on the lighting and coordinate with our green/white/black uniforms nicely. SAR I 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daylight, they are perfect. Night time theyre a hair different. Daylight lighting is a different temp than artificial stadium lighting. Thats the way it is. Only the ultimate complainers would stare at pictures where the colors are negligibly off a hair. At night. A hair. As if theres a rule, helmet has to be the exact same shade as the shirts. As if anyone thinks metallic, reflective helmets are supposed to look exactly the same a a jersey. Do you hear yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
