re: Going back into Past seasons and seeing old Saints uniforms

Black and old gold is one of the best color schemes in the league, but the uniform design just fails to reach it's potential. Step 1: Match the pants stripe with the helmet stripe (or at least make it a double-stripe like the color-rush unis). I could be wrong, but I think the Saints are the only team in the league with a double stripe on the hat and solid stripe on their pants. Step 2: lose the solid black pants. They aren't doing yoga out there. Step 3: Add a little detail to the socks.

Other than when Nike is allowed to add their creative stupidity to the uniforms, most teams in the last few decades have gone back to traditional uniforms:

Bills
49ers
Giants
Jets
Chargers
Vikings

and many fans would love to see their teams follow suit....Patriots, Dolphins, Rams, Broncos, Eagles
