This has to do with the thread I posted about earlier; the guy that sits with K1 on the bench. He is the quarterbacks assistant coach, Cameron Turner.
Nope it’s Dave Raih & he doesn’t wear the green hat all the time. There are times on offense when he has it on & times on offense when he doesn’t.

Hmmmm

I think the one the dude wears on the sideline has a red cardinal though.

Well as a Fine Art professor who taught color theory for three years, there is something called simultaneous contrast where a large field of one color with imply its compliment to a small field of color. Meaning the compliment of green is red, so the light color field between a large space of green will appear red, though I actually think as you that is an actual red cardinal on that cap but this cap is close enough to fulfill the green cap fascination... I think I am going to buy one just because it's freaking strange, though I am not even Irish lol

I had a friend who played WR for UCLA, then became their WR coach. He always wore a long white towel around his neck so the players could spot him easily.

The green hat is certainly...umm...distinctive.

No I've seen it too. Green hat with the normal red Cardinals logo. It's not for sale.
Watch the re-run of the Giant game and the sideline footage of coaches speaking with players. There are two coaches wearing the emerald green bb cap.

Cap itself is emerald green. Cardinal logo is the traditional red, black and yellow one.

I no longer need to know why companies pay huge $$ for product placement in movies, videos etc....

Years ago...I thought I was the last person on earth with a windows computer, because 99 out of every 100 computers I saw in film were Apple.

When in reality, it's the exact opposite lol.

For the record, I think it's butt-ugly... About the only solid color I think the redbird would look worse on....is purple, Yellow would be up there too.

Green & red are great Christmas colors. Christmas is right around playoff time, so I'm fine with mixing the two colors. And since my wife is 100% Irish, it would make for a perfect Christmas gift!!

Lol. I wonder how many posters have enough ASFN vintage to know what you’re talking about. Awesome pull from ASFN history.
