Tampa Bay Buccaneers reveal new uniforms

Last month's reveal of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers' updated helmet and logo was met with ennui.

Monday's announcement of the Bucs' new Nike jersey likely will stoke more vigorous responses.

The move appears to meld the pre-1997 creamsicle jerseys with the red and white uniforms of the last 16 seasons. Pewter takes a prominent role in the style and the "Buccaneer Red" is a more vibrant shade of crimson than the previous iteration.

Undoubtedly, the changes will bring about some backlash with fans, especially middle-aged ones who despise change. But, to steal a line from Eminem: "This is for the kids' amusement -- the kids."
