1997 & 99 Cincinnati Bengals

Adjusted pants/stripes/styles, per Larry Schmitt:

"I observed this odd phenomenon this morning. In the database the 1997-1999 Bengals are shown wearing what I'll call their 1996 pants, the old tiger stripe style that had been consistently carried over since 1981. This is sometimes true and sometimes not. 
Here's what I have found:
1997: they wore their "new" stripes all season.
1998: they reverted back to the "old" 1996 pants (this is correctly depicted already)
1999: they change to a strange pattern, almost a hybrid of the two styles
From 2000-2002 they are correctly shown wearing what I'll call their "new" stripe style, that had actually debuted in 1997, then took a hiatus."
