I've unlocked two and so far, meaningless describes them well. The first talks about the history of the scandinavian vikings, the inspiration they provided when the team was formed and includes some accompanying pictures. The second shows a pic of Chad Greenway along with the following quote:TheCoolerOne wrote:http://vikingsuniforminsider.com/
Apparently you can unlock teasers some how via absurd online activites. My work computer won't load it but somebody get on it and let's see these meaningless easter eggs!
I would have to agree with the sentiment of many on this board. Keep it simple is the best way to go. The team with the "modern disease" the most is Atlanta. I love their throwbacks, and have spoken with fans on boards that agree. Keeping it simple is bad a$$, modern is noisy plastic.MikethePurple wrote:This is great news! I've hated the new jerseys since they came out and refused to buy anything other than a throwback. This leaked chatter sounds like they're headed in the right direction.
This right here makes me confident that Nike got it right. I'm excited to see what they look like, but maybe even more excited to buy me my first Vikings jersey since the early Moss days."I was excited when I saw it for the first time. I was really pumped. It's a simple uniform for us which to me makes it look better. You let the purple stand out which is what the Vikings stand for. The new pant and uniform design are going to be a hit."
What makes you think that?80 PurplePride 84 wrote:I really hope they didn't mess with the helmets. But it sounds like they did.
