    anyone else hear this rumor?

    While driving to NJ last week I was listening to ESPN radio, and they were discussing throwback uniforms and saying that the NFL is doing away with them. I dont know how much validity there is to this but these guys sounded serious. Anyone else hear these rumors? was it discussed already and i missed it? I think it would be a horrible idea for many reasons. I love old school unis and think every team should have them. They help generate good revenue for small market teams. I actually think some teams throwbacks are better than their current unis (San Diego, Dallas, and I'm a huge fan of ours). Anyone else hear anything on this?

    If the NFL was getting rid of them, why would the Bills bother with the sizeable investment to outfit the team for 1-2 games?

        Thats what i want to know. I would normally brush this off as strictly rumors, but it was ESPN and the guy talked about it for like 20 minutes. I also assume there would probably be a bigger deal being made if there was truth to this. Maybe next year?....i dont know, these guys sounded pissed about it though....

            It may be something for the future, not in 2005

                  it could be some misinformation to drum up sales, ie
                  "throwbacks are going away, buy yours now!!!"

                  Then two months from now:
                  "Due to vastly increase sales, the throwback jerseys will be used indefinitely"

                    Its a money maker no way in heck the NFL gets rid of them. They might limit teams to have only 3 jerseys.

                      I think the Bills-Chargers game styles throwbacks
