Not sure if this would go here or in the NFL at Large section, but apparently, the Jags and Cowboy's uniforms are going to be custom for the Game in London.. Custom helmets and jerseys..

 

 

"In line with the legion's poppy charity appeal, the uniforms and helmets of both teams will feature the red poppy logo. At the end of the game, 80,000 poppies will be dropped into the Wembley stands. The uniforms will be auctioned off for charity."

Not sure, but I heard if you eat enough of them, you'll fail a drug test. Don't hold me to that though..

At least our Defense will have an excuse for falling asleep against the Cowboys.

I was wrong about Trent Baalke. 

I am 100% murican. What is a poppy?

ever see the movie 'The Wizard of Oz'? Remember the scene where Dorthy, Tin Man, Scare Crow, and the Lion are prancing through that giant field of flowers toward the Emerald City? Those were (ostensibly) poppies. The source of opiates such as morphine and heroin. That's why the wicked witch used them to put Dorthy to sleep....

It will symbolize the fallen Jaguars after the Cowboys completely dismantle us.

Uniforms for both teams were the same last year when we were there with the 49ers. Why would they make new uniforms this year?

Try reading the article it explains why

 

It is like our Veterans day over there and we are participating in observance of it.

 

 

Maybe one of the UK Jag fans can help out with a better explanation of it.

I don't care if our guys wear dresses to play in London.. I just want them to win. Shoot, wear pink polka-dots and high heels...  I don't care... I just want a win.

I think you've already got it - Remembrance Sunday is like your Veterans Day.


Everyone wears a plastic poppy (they are sold to make money for a veterans charity) so this is just an extension of that.


The tradition goes back to the poppy fields of Flanders, where the First World War was fought.


This is coverage of Remembrance Sunday last year

Poppies were also used to mark the 100th anniversary of the start of ww1

I distinctly remember as a boy my father and other veterans wearing red poppies on their lapels during Memorial Day. It used to be a tradition here.
