New England unveils new practice jerseys

The New England Patriots have come out with a new practice jersey design. The jerseys will be worn by the Patriots for the first time during Super Bowl warm ups on February 3rd.

"We've gone with a bit of a retro look," said Patriots General Manager Scott Pioli. "We actually had a heated internal debate over which style to use. It was probably our most controversial decision since the Moss trade."

The jerseys underwent rigorous testing including exhaustive use during a stretching session by Doug Barrett, a noted sound engineer from Medford, Massachusetts. "I didn't hear any odd noises at all," Barrett gleefully proclaimed.

Mr. Barrett then turned to the camera and said: "Look, Pablo; a new jersey!" pointing to a giant "yes" on the front of the shirt, then swiftly moving his index finger upward.
