[QUOTE="jojatk, post: 473920, member: 2627"] So I'll ask you again. Why should they care what you think since you obviously have so much disdain for them? And do you really think that the fact that they comment at all on the uniforms takes away any time from practice or focus on the games on the field? Really? I'm not disparaging your opinion about the uniforms. You are welcome to your opinion of whether you like them or not and I wouldn't even try to tell you that you should like them. I think you ascribe far too much underlying meaning to the uniform choices GT makes. I'm confident in saying that nobody thinks "ooh let's worry about whether we look like ND or Pitt or anyone else wearing blue." I think they are more likely thinking "those would be snazzy looking and cool and blue is one of our colors to choose from." I don't like every combination and, personally, my favorite unis were the blue tops with the white pants we wore back in the Bobby Ross days. But I also like the white tops with gold pants and the actual gold tops with white pants. And the black tops with white or gold pants. I think there's probably only one uniform that I had a real negative reaction to and that was the urine colored tops. As for the 60's... yeah, it's been a long time. And my point about ND is exactly that. When people see gold they do NOT think about GT football. My comment about confusing us with ND is that if anyone sees white and gold there is virtually no chance that they think "oh yeah, there's GT." Even though ND only wears the white about 25-40% of the time (and yes, they wear white tops some every year) they more likely think of ND football because of the gold. Usually when they are away they wear white tops and gold pants. Their number one uniform is blue tops and gold pants when they are the home team or are the ones with the choice of what to wear. ND has a national following and even when they are bad people know one of their main colors is gold. [/QUOTE]
