Alright, so you wanna know why them NFL fellas been wearin’ all them brown sweatshirts, huh? Well, lemme tell ya, it ain’t just ’cause they think it looks purdy. There’s a whole story behind it, ya see. I ain’t no fancy expert or nothin’, but I can tell ya what I heard.
First off, it’s gotta do with them soldiers, the ones fightin’ for our country. Yeah, the NFL, they wanna show them fellas some respect. They call it “Salute to Service,” somethin’ like that. So, ’round November time, ‘specially ’round Veterans Day, them coaches and players, they start wearin’ brown stuff. It’s like their way of sayin’ “thank ya” to the military folks.
Now, I ain’t sure why they picked brown exactly. Maybe it’s ’cause it looks like the color of them soldier uniforms, ya know, the army ones. Or maybe it’s just a color that don’t stick out too much, so it don’t distract from the game while still showin’ support. Like I said, I ain’t no expert, just a regular ol’ person tryin’ to make sense of things.
- They wear them brown hoodies durin’ the games.
- They also sell them hoodies to raise money for the military. That’s a good thing, I reckon. Helpin’ them soldiers out.
And it ain’t just the coaches, ya know. Some of the players wear brown stuff too, if they want. It’s all ’bout showin’ respect and support for them who keep us safe. That’s what I hear tell, anyways.
This whole “Salute to Service” thing, it goes on for a few weeks, like from week nine to eleven, somethin’ like that. Each team, they pick one home game to make it special for the military. They wear the brown, they talk about the soldiers, they make a big fuss about it, in a good way, ya understand.
Some folks say brown means you’re steady and reliable, like a good ol’ workhorse. Maybe that’s why the NFL likes it too. They wanna show they’re trustworthy, that they ain’t just some fly-by-night operation. They wanna be there for the long haul, just like them soldiers are there for us.
And lemme tell ya, them hoodies ain’t just plain ol’ brown, neither. Sometimes they got that camouflage stuff on ’em, ya know, the leafy patterns that help ya hide in the woods. That’s another way of showin’ support for the military, ’cause them soldiers, they wear that camouflage stuff all the time when they’re out there doin’ their job.
So, next time ya see them NFL fellas wearin’ them brown sweatshirts, ya know it ain’t just ’cause they lost their other clothes. It’s ’cause they’re sayin’ thank ya to the military, showin’ some respect for them who keep us free. And that’s a good thing, I reckon. Real good thing.
They started wearin’ them brown things ’round week ten or so. And it goes on for a few weeks, like I said. It’s a whole big to-do. But it’s a good to-do, a respectful to-do. And that’s somethin’ we can all appreciate, ya know?
Anyways, that’s the gist of it, as far as I can tell. They wear brown for the military, for “Salute to Service.” It’s a way of sayin’ thank ya and showin’ respect. And that’s all there is to it, plain and simple, just like how I like things.
