Goalie Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 Meh, it's a third jersey, who really cares to be honest, I'm sure it will be fine. Gotta see what they look like before crapping on all over them. I like the royal blue ones too btw but enough pissing and moaning about them, gotta come a point where we just accept that they won't be using those jerseys very often.

And the royal blues should be the Bombers main jersey. I won't stop complaining about it until they make it happen. HC85, Harbaugh, Bigblue204 and 5 others 8
Bigblue204 Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 Everyone agrees that the royal blue jerseys are the nicest ones, why in gods name do they refuse to make them the teams full time jersey? **** I hate Reebok designers so much. Easiest answer is they don't make that colour blue. But then how did we get them last year?
Bigblue204 Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 I'm with you RICH!!! ROYAL BLUES!! ROYAL BLUES!!! ROYAL BLUES!!
Goalie Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 Maybe wait till the jersey comes out first???
saskbluefan Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 They will be awful for sure. This whole crazy uni thing you see with American colleges will be mocked openly by our children watching old clips on whatever succeeds the thing that succeeds the thing that succeeds youtube. So this year the Bombers will wear their half decent blue home jerseys, their disgraceful gold away jerseys, their so beautiful it makes my heart weep that they aren't worn all the time royal blue jerseys (hopefully at least once), and their hideous new Reebok look how creative we are uni? Four uniforms in one season. No milking the fans there.
Goalie Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 Some of you have already made up your mind without seeing them so yup to some of you they will be awful no matter what, only way they wouldn't be is if they were royal blue it sounds like.. could be a pretty decent jersey but... because it's not royal blue, some won't like it. I own a royal blue jersey also, yeah it would be great if they used it all the time but.. this is about a "bold innovative" third jersey, they already have a royal blue jersey they use from time to time... this is about reebok trying to make money so considering the bombers already use a royal blue from time to time, this one isn't even gonna be close to royal blue. Doesn't mean it will be awful though, can't really judge it until it's seen and that's what some are doing here, you are judging it before it is seen.. What if it doesn't suck? yeah i'm sure it will suck too but... gotta keep a little bit of an open mind here.
ediger Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 I may have heard a thing or two from a fairly connected source about new jerseys a few weeks ago. I don't know if this announcement is related to what I heard, but what I heard will make all you quite happy... Goalie 1
Tracker Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 Love the Royal Blue uniforms, and hate the idea of camo uniforms- that would make the CFL just like US college games where fundamentalist religion, militarism and sports are all conflated. That's the American Way. Canada has had enough military glorification and adventures in support of wars that have no relevance to us. johnzo 1
The Unknown Poster Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 I have no problem with this. Usually its a cool little thing to do and if hardly overly offensive. If it makes a few bucks for the team and league, great.

No the pissing and moaning as you call it is trying to send a message that we as fans want better. I hate the current jerseys we have, so much so that I won't buy one, my hope is that enough people follow suit but doesn't appear that is happening.

I'm in need of new bomber gear but not too happy with the bomber jersies so I'm probably just going to buy a T-shirt or something.

TBURGESS Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 I need a new jersey too, but I can't bring myself to buy the current ones. Royal Blue is the right colour for the Bombers IMHO.

Goalie Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 Hell, i'd go as far to say that we all agree that royal blue should be their jersey colour, doesn't seem to be anyone actually disagreeing with that.

Yeah I don't know anyone who doesn't like those jerseys. I personally don't mind the new home and away ones, but you always hear people moaning about them...same with the last couple we've had. But those royal blues.......everyone loves them.

Oh I have no doubts at all that people with the team are aware of what gets said online.

mbrg Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 I need a new jersey too, but I can't bring myself to buy the current ones. Royal Blue is the right colour for the Bombers IMHO. Lots of royal blue jerseys for sale in the Bomber store. Problem solved. Next!
TBieber Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 First heard about the jerseys last year. Apparently BC released their's early as they wanted to launch them all at once. They're supposed to be based on the same sort of look with obvious tweaks for all teams. Not sure if a year has changed anything, I know the Lions said they altered something to help people read the numbers better.
Mike Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 Somebody on Twitter tweeted me a picture of the August 22 game pin. It's got a sneak peek of the jersey, sort of. They're gross looking. I'd post it but I don't know how from my phone.
Fatty Liver Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 I'd put my money on Wade Miller being a sentimental fellow as our ace in the hole for bringing back the Royal Blues. ediger 1
Captain Blue Posted August 6, 2014 Report Posted August 6, 2014 First, let's begin with the off-topic stuff: The only appropriate response to anyone who thinks Duck Dynasty is good is a hearty laugh. On the jerseys: I have no idea how these will look so I'll hold off before forming an opinion, but I am definitely perplexed as to why the Bombers don't go back to their royal blue uniforms. Also, I am fairly confident that the Bombers have a final say on their jerseys, so this isn't a Reebok thing. When Nike took over the NFL deal two years ago teams could opt for a new Nike jersey or a similar one. Its why the Packers haven't had their jersey changed at all.
