OT: If you're color blind, Thursday Night Football will not be for you

Guess I am skipping TNF this year. God, those uniforms were horrible. We all know the Pats will play at least one TNF game this year too... I am frightened to see what they wear. Hopefully just all dark blue.

Yeah I'm sure they will be horrible. Depending on who they play my guess you won't be able to differentiate the Bills CR uniform from the Pats.

Such a disgusting, terrible idea...and I have zero idea of the demo they are targeting.

Morons and pink hats?

I'd guess the Pats would use the blue on blue again for that game

NOT ENOUGH RUSHING OF COLORS. NFL DEMANDS BRIGHT COLORS NOT DULL ASS BLUE!

Watch Goodell make them wear some kind of shiny silver uniforms. That'll really get the meathead viewers' attention.

Roger will you please die. You're killing the game.

I'll even chip in for your color rush coffin.

Here's how these abominations happened:

COLOR RUSH - The Draw Play

Sounds like a golden opportunity for this device:

Unfortunately it seems true.. this "Forest Gump" moment brought to you by the NFL, might attract one more viewer somewhere..

Color-rush uniforms mandatory next season 

49ers, rest of NFL set to wear Color Rush uniforms on TNF this fall, per Lions President

So long as they don't adapt this kit from women's cycling we should be OK

In Raidertown the choice is black and white.

If they want to do this stupid crap, what is so hard about one team being "color rushed" (god that's dumb) and the other being whited/blacked out or something to that effect.

Oh not unique enough to attract more casual fans that actually care about this stuff? I'm $o $orry

From color blind to racist....this thread is definitely polarizing.

No gray area.

I like color rush. Why are you guys hating.

I was stereotyping a generic idiot viewer (maybe with a slight southern accent), did it actually seem racist somehow? Lol

Scroll down for video of two sets of players with indistinguishable uniforms to red/green color blind people. They look like traffic signals to everyone else, of course.

My father was red/green color blind, so the hilarity of this is not lost on me. He kept complaining that everyone else had bland taste and he wanted a little color, so he stuck my mother with wallpaper that looked like fried eggs on a pea soup background.

When he passed away, she replaced it the next day [it seemed].

NFL: We didn't account for color blindness with 'Color Rush' jerseys

The purpose of this idiocy is, apparently, to drive away fans that want to watch the game.

I assume he has meatheads who want to watch day glow popsicles run around for two hours, ready to replace us.
