    Still better to have on light colors vs dark colors in the sun. No doubt about it!

    It sucks for them, that is about it. It is an inconvenience and outside of very rare circumstances, I doubt it makes much of a difference.

    The only thing it is going to do to Dallas is probably trick Romo into throwing more picks than normal because he is used to white jerseys. So he ends the day with 5 instead of 3.

    I mean it is *better* and if I was a coach I would have them do the same, but I doubt it is much of a game changer.

    If it was that much of a game changer, teams wouldn't have dark uniforms.

    I don't care if it's superstition about losing wearing navy or sweating them out. ...... even just psyching them out. Don't care. Just like icing the kicker.

    Any little thing can get in a players head. I'm all for doing anything for the possibility that it could, might, possibly. ..... maybe help?

    I think it's cool that whis thought of it.

    It does change more than you think. Think about how many guys need to get IV for fluids at halftime.

    The people it effects the most are the line players. Play after play of trying to move a behemoth(either way) tires you out, and if you aren't actually getting respite from the 7-12 second play cause you are "soaking up the sun" you start to feel it.

    Like I said, if it was a game changer they wouldn't have dark uniforms. This is a multi-billion dollar industry where research goes into the tiniest, most seemingly pointless things just to get an edge on the competition.

    i think the shoulder pads, helmet, and any other protective gear they put on has more of an effect on how "dehydrated" they get.

    no doubt the color of the shirt adds to it, but it's more level in football with the amount of equipment worn.
