And looking at that picture again reminds me how the Stamps uniforms have always been great. I totally understand why they got rid of it, but man did those double old west pistols really complete the black jersey.

At least the Flames have the excuse of being in a league of 20+ teams where your odds of winning are significantly lower. You have to admit it's astonishing that the Stamps have only won 6 Grey Cups over the past 30 years in a 8/9 team league where they have fielded several of the all-time great regular season teams. Edmonton fans like to talk about some of the 70's and 80's but their regular season dominance isn't remotely close to the Stamps since the early 90's.
