Just a stab by a designer, but I like the number.

Don't like the helmets.

We are an iconic franchise with well known uniforms. There is no reason to change them.

Struggling, lackluster franchises are the ones who change their uniforms. Do you think the NY Yankees will ever change their uniform? The Boston Celtics?

Dumb idea. Always.

What would Vince say if he knew the shoulder stripes didn't go around the entire sleeve? Or that there really isn't a sleeve anymore?

The shoulder numbers are mandated by the NFL. So the only thing that's really changed are the stripes on the sleeve. A change with the number styling and especially any change with the helmet design would be a more significant change.

I think Hornung did ads for Marlboro.

The sleeves have changed, numbers on the sleeves added, the collar has been changed and the stripes on the sleeves have been changed. So have the socks and pants and pants striping.

I don't think altering the numbering to a custom font owned by the Packers is going against too much tradition. (Well, have one reference to it as a custom Packer-owned font but nowhere else calls it that).

yeah, because ours have changed drastically so many times in the last 50 years

and what is tradition? Lombardi shit all over packer tradition when he changed the main color from navy blue (our main color for the first 40 or so years, and the color of Lambeau's Packers) to green

There was an account of a game in the early '60's.

Taylor, Paul, & Vince all lit up when they hit the locker room at halftime.

It was like a different world, Madmen-style.

There was a day I would jump over the boards at hockey practice with the boys and go burn a doobie behind the relocatable nearby. :)

That's kinda funny. Because the Steelers numbers, since the day they changed them, have driven me nuts.
