Road Creamsicles Coming?
July 5th, 2025
Road throwbacks?
Joe is a huge fan of the creamsicles. But once, maybe twice a year is fine.
Unfortunately, the NFL wants to go full-blown Oregon where each team wears weird uniforms every other week. What happened to brand recognition? What happened to walking into a bar, seeing a TV or surfing at home and knowing immediately who was playing? Now, especially at a bar, you sometimes need five minutes to figure out who is playing?
Brand recognition, man! Identity! Image!
So, per John Breech of CBS, the Bucs are set to unveil a week from Tuesday, July 15, a new alternate uniform that is rumored to be a road alternate. You know, the white creamsicles.
For Joe, the keyword here is “road,” if the rumor is true. There have been games in the NFL before where the visiting teams have worn throwbacks as well. Do the Bucs plan to wear white throwbacks in a road game and the creamsicles at home against the Dixie Chicks on Dec. 11?
The white creamsicles were OK. The home creamsicles are absolutely beautiful classics!
Despite Joe loving the creamsicles, he’s getting worn out with the weirdo uniforms. With the exception of one home game a year, stick with the classics! The classics are classics for a reason.
Some of these throwbacks teams have are absolute eyerakes. For example, Joe might punch a hole in the wall if the Bucs ever bring back those Jameis Winston alarm clock numbers.

Against Seattle would be nice. 50 year, expansion anniversary.

We’ve won one game in those horrid atrocities – Josh Freeman’s debut against Green Bay.
Why.

I’m not concerned they’ll ever bring the Jameis era atrocities. The Glazers recognized the error and dumped them.
Road alternate – could it be the white jersey with creamsicle pants combo?

That’s about the word to call those things.

“Jameis Winston alarm clock numbers.”

The only uniforms that were worse than those are the neon red “color rush” unis. They looked like pajamas.

Those were HORRIBLE. Joe was in the press box for the final NFL game in St. Louis for that game and those ketchup and mustard bottle uniforms those teams wore that night took civilization back 80 years. What a garish display by the NFL.

“getting worn out with the weirdo uniforms”
Ditto that Joe! Nike has lost it and so has the NFL. This football dang it!
Go Bucs!

“What happened to walking into a bar, seeing a TV or surfing at home and knowing immediately who was playing? Now, especially at a bar, you sometimes need five minutes to figure out who is playing?“
That uh scoreboard thingy permanently affixed during gameplay comes in handy… you’d have to be at least 2 sheets to the wind not to figure it out in 5 seconds these days.

This is truly exciting news. Can’t wait for the update and pics.
Agree, if they were to bring back digital clock numbers, we all will be screaming out loud.
