Sixers going back to old Uni's permanently?

Anyone else see or can confirm this? I would love it.

Derek tried to get it confirmed (http://www.phillyarena.com/archives/2009-01-25/Uniforms-No-official-answer-for-next-year ) but its still not official.

I agree its good news.  The current unis are fine, but I hate how often they change it, and some are brutal...

Might as well go back to a classic and stay with it.

I emailed the Sixers.  Their official response was that it was that next years uniforms/logos were yet to be finalized.

We will not be returning to the red, white and blue uniform full-time this year.  There are select dates where we will continue to wear it for the remainder of this season (weekend games and the March 13 game at the Spectrum), but will be rotating through our current uniforms throughout the rest of the season.

A final decision on what direction we will go in regards to any uniform/logo treatments beyond this season has yet to be finalized.

That leads me to believe that it's at least being discussed, otherwise the response would be like it was last year (which was the retro's will be used at in select games).

Thanks for the update. Appreciate it. I hope they go back to the old ones.

Or at least a more moderate version of the old ones.
