Dear Jeffrey,

I am a lifelong Eagles fan that has hated the midnight green uniforms since their inception in 1996. I've heard from sources that the main player in the decision to ditch the sweet sweet kelly greens in favor of the pine tree look was your now ex-wife, Kristina. I get it man, happy wife = happy life. But guess what? Shes not your wife anymore. AND you just hired a coach whose last name happens to be Kelly, so lets party. Really that last part doesn't matter at all... I could care less if the coaches name is Dick Slippers, this is about the uniforms that we all love and cherish well except for like you and the ex-misses and probably Dave Spadaro because he likes whatever you like and also Andy Reid because he would've looked like a huge Green Lantern but hes gone now lets focus....

the Kelly Green Bird Of Prey Logo coming back would at least provides some style points & new gear while we go through some growing pains with the new Big Balls Chip regime.

I actually saw & signed this a week ago but support every other Eagle fan's efforts here.

That Silver-Spooned-Gold-Standard-Spouting Owner of ours has always made it clear he mostly only appreciates Eagle history that occurred on his watch but if he's ever going to listen to his constinuency & return us to the Kelly Green of Chuck Bedrnarik, Dick Vermeil, Reggie, Randall, etc then it would be this offseason marked by his divorce from his long-time wife who helped bring in the current design and the arrival of a coach with Kelly in his name.

wants this whole midnight green thing to be his tradition.

i can't say i can whine all that much, we've won a fuck of a lot more games in dark green lol.

they also didnt look very good when they wore the 1960 unis. it would have be something way more like the 80s/90s unis but with the newer helmet.

i still have that "the eagle has landed" cunningham poster, have a bunch of sick framed vintage posters (schmidt and carlton, the ultimate weapon, etc ... too bad my Nike "Supreme Court" one got ruined).

And you will know MY JACKET IS GOLD when I lay my vengeance upon thee.

He had the kelly green for two years before his wife told him to change it.

ps- I agree, those Yellow and Blue uniforms were offensive to the eyes..
