Red Throwbacks To Return (Hopefully) 2023 at the earliest

[captain stone]

you were not the first, nor will you be the last to have an opinion regarding the Patriot uniform colors & mascot...

APF won't be the last...But are you sure he wasn't the first...?

If i had to put money on it, i would wager win, place or show and would feel confident i'd walk away with money in my pocket

A. Camera Tripod... which as we all know, cannot be located on a sideline during the game, and can only be located in a lock room which is inaccessible to team staff during a game

B. Pat Patriot created by Phil Bissell in 1960 ... who as we see is wearing a Blue Coat! the original cartoon did have red trim and red socks... hmmm that woulda been a good name originally, the Boston Red Stockings... hmmm

But on the side of a football helmet it's hard to tell the difference even from just a few yards away.

Especially the kids up to age 25 or so who've been used to Elvis.

The real vikings did not dress in purple

Not the first

(That could be Pat Harlow)

I should have walked into Orthwein's office in 1993 and had a little talk with him

We can save a bundle off the cap this year if Bill just sets up five tripods at the line of scrimmage in front of the quarterback

Each state/region had their particular colors...For Massachusetts it was blue.

So we were a 'blue' state way back then too?

Ah ha ha ha, heh...heh...

Sorry, couldn't resist

 

[Actual Pats Fan]

Agree. Their red uniforms didn’t make any sense when your logo/mascot is wearing blue.

Falcons are not red

all things considered, he could have done much much worse than change the primary team colors... much much worse



and if you want a little schadenfreude, his son once told me the worst decision his father ever made was selling the team to Kraft ... lost out on Billions

Five posts in a row. Just a wild guess, but you seem interested in this topic.

??? Kraft was not letting him buy out the stadium lease. Which would have freed him to move to St. Louis. Kraft paid a bundle - a record price I think - to Orthwein for the Patriots.

could have just waited him out though... Would have cost him 50 M & 8 Years though... But still would have been worth it in the long run... Im glad he decided to sell

Pirates on the other hand did wear orange and creamsicle.

It’s true…this is a historical photo.

After our 5 starters & Karras, tripods would probably do just as well as the rest of our backups.

What about instead of Pat on the helmet we re-install the (blue) 1960 tricorn hat, or maybe Pat's grandson Angry Pat?

Yes, the blue tricorn hat is an incredibly inspirational football image -- brimming with deep symbolism and nuance. I'm not familiar with Angry Pat, perhaps you mean ...
