Indy plays Jax tonight on the NFL Network.  Go Colts.  Teams that can't fill their stadiums don't deserve the playoffs.

Meanwhile, from the world of fashion...

The Ravens will wear black jerseys with white pants Sunday, when they play the Chicago Bears at M&T Bank Stadium, a team official confirmed Wednesday.

It's the first time that the Ravens will put on their alternate uniforms this season. The Ravens decided to go from the all-black combination (jersey and pants) last season because first-year coach John Harbaugh didn't like how it looked.

The only time the Ravens have worn the black jersey with white pants was Dec. 7, 2008, when the Ravens beat the Washington Redskins, 24-10.

Thank Christ.  Those black-on-black uniforms make them look like Billy Blank unitards.

Not only that, but they'd lose every time they wore them.  I think that Ravens couldn't locate each other on the field, due to their ninja-like outfits.

Isn't the Bears kit Black Jersey with White Pants?

Negative.  The Bears will be wearing their road white jerseys with navy blue pants.

Henry has passed away.

QuoteCHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP)—Charlotte-Mecklenburg police say Cincinnati Bengals receiver Chris Henry has died, one day after suffering serious injuries upon falling out of the back of a pickup truck in what authorities describe as a domestic dispute with his fiancee.

Police say Henry died at 6:36 a.m. Thursday. Henry was 26.

Away from the team because of a broken forearm, Henry was rushed to the hospital Wednesday after being found on a residential road. Police say a dispute began at a home about a half-mile away, and Henry jumped into the bed of the pickup truck as his fiancee was driving away from the residence.

Police said at some point when she was driving, Henry "came out of the back of the vehicle."

Chris Henry is dead at age 26.  http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=4750615

Really sucks, because it seemed like he was getting his life back on track.  I've followed him pretty closely since his first year at WVU and he had more than his fair share of problems-- or to put it more bluntly he repeatedly acted stupidly and got himself into unnecessary trouble.  But from the limited interaction I had with him, he always seemed like a decent guy.  I last (briefly) spoke to him at the "family cookout" at training camp in August-- he had his mom, fiancee, & 3 kids up with him.

RIP.  Could have been one of the great ones.


Btw, thanks for the tasteful thread title, Seedy.

:unsure: It appears the Ravens are wearing alternate home uniforms, and the Bears are wearing away uniforms.

Too bad about Chris Henry.  RIP

Nah they are Navy and White.  It can look black sometimes it is such a dark blue.

Would have been Unocinco, following Chad's pattern.  Or 'Quince', to please all the Spanish teachers freaking out over Chad's name choice.

Henry died as he lived- under police scrutiny.
My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
