The uniform was good enough for Jim Brown. Therefore, it is by far good enough for the "soldier" and anyone else. Stick to playing hard for a tradition, not changing it to make it yours. The Cleveland Browns are a gift to football. Why do you think so many teams are having "throw-back day" uniforms. The uniform must stay the same. Do not change it!!!
You cannot put a price on tradition. Once you change the uniform, it will continue to change every 10-20 years. The Bengals changed and now no one remembers why Paul Brown made them look almost like the Browns. That was a great tradition that would have continued to foster the rivalry. Everyone agrees that owners, players, and coaches come and go. However, the unwritten tradition of the Browns will go as well, if not protected against short term thinking and financial gain.
