NFL.com news: Let's go old school with uniforms: "Seattle Seahawks (road) The Seahawks had one of the best color schemes in the NFL, and they had to go out and ruin it. And then the club further started thumbing its nose at the team's fans by going to a lime-green alternate uniform. Why would the Seahawks ever want to shy away from this classic look? Plus this makes for a good fashion matchup against other teams."
NFL.com news: Let's go old school with uniforms: "Seattle Seahawks (home) NFL Films recently showed Emmitt Smith breaking the all-time rushing mark, a moment that was ruined because the Seahawks were wearing some horrific dark uniforms.

My new favorite free agent safety for the Seahawks to pursue and pluck from the 49ers, Dashon Goldson, is apparently developing into a leader. Nice.
