When the new ugly 3rds came out this came up. It comes up all the time but it is not going to change. It is kind of like how every month a new Iginla thread gets made or an old one gets bumped, I think too many fans on here are stuck in the past. It is a new era for this team, maybe we should re-design the currents as we move forward. I am not a fan of the retro jersey's, that yellow is nasty and the lack of black sucks. Black is awesome!

No one cares that you have a differing opinion, lots of people do and don't get ragged on. Your problem is you speak in absolutes and in this case are complaining about the wrong thing.
Share your opinion that you believe we shouldn't live in the past, and that you like black in our colour scheme and everything would be fine. BUt that's not what you did.
You came in guns ablazing, calling everyone whiners and saying the thread shouldn't exist and we talk about it too much. Why do you care if it gets talked about too much? You can just not read the thread as it's clearly labelled "Retro Jerseys". And those of us that do want to discuss, regardless of how many times it's been discussed, can do so.
If anything, the constant threads and constant poll results showing the majority of CP'ers want to go back to the Retro jerseys (this one shows 77%) is very interesting and something the team should look into.
Anyways, not really sure what my point was, other than to point out that you get hammered on here because of the hostility you typically express in your posts, that cause the reactions you get.
It's not simply you just expressing your opinion and then getting trolled in return, while coincidentally most posters don't have that problem.
