Remember the Oilers jerseys under the edge program?
So essentially I'm not blaming them. In fact I'm guessing they were on it and made the changes they were instructed to make only to be flabbergasted that other teams just rebelled (original six) and left them deep into a redesign they likely didn't want. (this is all guess work of course).
But then why stick with them?
The red ones at home are bad, but have some qualities ... but the white ones are almost embarrassing to me.
He basically said they didn't want to go away from something that worked, while admitting the appeal wasn't universal. Can't imagine more than 20% of fans liking the Reebook redesign.

If they didn't want to go away from what worked, our RBK edge jerseys would look like the 2004 ones.
Also, bring back the wool socks.
