GWT: he's jerking your chain. The point of the OP was to call attention to the U's shoes, and your post makes it sound as if you discovered it.

maybe they are specialty orthotics that don't come in black...   too many  sNiCkErS will do that to your feet

Sort of like those UV ray blocking glasses that only come in tint?   ;)

Looks like the B had white shoes as well.  New TASO uniform?

Looked to be black shoes with lots of white to me.  Still fugly.

I'm thinking the Ump wears a 8 1/2 size shoe and he forgot his at home and had to borrow a pair of shoes from a player who wears a size 16.   ;D

Give those guys a break.  After 33 regular season games and 2 playoff games before this one on Saturday, a guy's shoes wear out and new ones must be broken in.

Those aren't white shoes.  They are black shoes with white bottoms.  Reebok Zigtechs.  Sold by every vendor.  You guys need to get out and work a game and quit worrying what guys are wearing on the field.  Geez!  It's easy to be critical of people working when your setting home surfing the net.

"Predominantly black shoes..."  Another judgement call I guess.

We wore those shoes and I have been greatly disappointed in their durability. Nowhere near 33 regular season games but after our schedule and wearing them only for Varsity games I sure thought they would last longer than one season. Could be back to Adidas or Nike.

As little as you move in I can understand their "durability"

Yeah this system we have always puts the best crews we have on the field.

Well, what about the things this crew did correct?

R clearly watching QB take a hit that isn't late.

U manages in his ugly shoes to have 2 players pass close by and not get used as a pick.

HL gets to the only line that matters, the goal line and helps with the call.

BJ abandons the end line because it has nothing to do with this play and moves up to get a good look.

And, they made the right call on an amazing play.  Gosh, I think they did quite well.  Hope I get caught on camera looking this "ugly" sometime.

The "sad" part is if we told guys they would HAVE to wear white shoes to do a playoff, 99% would be looking for white shoe dye.   pi1eOn
