stripes > piping

Though I did sort of like the hurricane flag based trim on the old ones.

New Dallas Stars look. Story and more images here.

That looks like one of the logos for a user made team in a video game.

Scottie · Post by **Scottie** » Tue Jun 04, 2013 8:21 pm

True. Although I'm glad they went with green instead of black or a super-dark green. I thought they might switch to blue to keep in with the Cowboys, Mavs, and Rangers.

I kinda like them. Sort of minimal style. The only criticism I'd have is that the shoulder patch is the same logo as the centerpiece. That's a bit odd; teams usually reserve the shoulder for their "third" look.

Meh . . . seen worse.

I saw that today in the paper - just a terrible choice.

I like them too. They should have gone full red pants, white belt in the game.

Reminds me of goalie shirts from the mid 80s.

Right off the "In Living Color" palate.

They framed Friedel's head perfectly in that Under Armour logo.

New Spurs unis are an improvement, if only for the fact that I know what HP does.

Still not sure what an "Aurasma" is

Suave "Tigres de Detroit" uniforms (for this upcoming Saturday); very nice:

Damn, that comes out weird. Twin prepositions; Spanish and French "of" "of". The Tigers of of the strait.

howard · Post by **howard** » Tue Jul 30, 2013 2:47 pm

If you say "De De Troit Troit", then it is ok.

(Like "The The Angels Angels of Anaheim")

Not only that, but the team was known as "The Blues" for a century or so until the new owner decided to change their colours.

While "power ranking" uniforms is kind of silly, this is still a nice fun diversion on a Friday. Paul Lukas (ESPN) offered his rankings a few days ago, Will Leitch yesterday.

Lukas' original rankings

Will Leitch's rebuttal rankings

Can we all agree that the San Diego Padres should go back to the Brown and Gold combo? This one:

ETA: Lukas also ranks the other North American big leagues and offers an overall ranking.

No soccer (but international unis would merit ranking, I suppose).

From the Lukas article there is this tidbit that the Toronto Raptors are at least discussing a complete rebranding. Hallelujah.

Gunpowder · Post by **Gunpowder** » Fri Aug 23, 2013 2:13 pm

If some team came out today with that Padres uniform, we'd all laugh at them. Yet I love that uniform. Same with the 80s Astros.

USA Sweaters for the Olympics. I like them but an not a fan of the fake laces. Go real laces or no laces, but fake laces are like tofurkey on Thanksgiving (vegetarian Thanksgiving is okay by me, but don't fake it poorly).

Also, I think bad decisions on the pants and socks could happen.

wlu_lax6 · Post by **wlu_lax6** » Wed Aug 28, 2013 7:24 am

oh and the USA kit is better than what CCCP is throwing as the host

degenerasian · Post by **degenerasian** » Wed Aug 28, 2013 10:55 am

I know there is blue on the Russian flag but I never associate blue with them. The blue of those uniforms makes them look Czech.

To used to the old CCCP pajamas.

A previously unknown/announced NFL guideline that teams/players use the same helmets for the whole season has killed the Tampa Bay creamsicle throwbacks. This was a recommendation made for safety purposes, and if having to maintain multiple helmets for each player really is a concern, he makes a good point:

Meanwhile, consider this: If it truly is riskier to switch lids during the season, it kinda makes you wonder about all those colleges that play musical chairs with their headgear each week, no?

As noted in the article, it seems odd that the NFL teams are apparently only now becoming aware of the "rule"..... And I also don't understand why the throwback helmets and regular helmets can't be fitted in exactly the same way prior to, or even during the season. It seems if the helmets are properly fitted, it should not matter which helmet is utilized.

Kiprusoff may have retired but the Flames have a new Finnish goalie and check out his mask!

Albertosaurus? Nice. That's a huge step up from that Beetlejuice thing he had in Tampa.

Terps breaking out new uniforms for the West VA game
Ripple flag on the helmet.

Although VaTech's stone helmet is really interesting
