FinsUp1214 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 I think I’m in the minority here, but I really don’t want the Heat to switch to Vice full time. At all. Keep a Vice alternate, that’s perfectly fine. But the identity they’ve carved out over nearly 30 years fits them more than fine, and switching to Vice basically “just because” isn’t a good enough reason for me to get behind dumping the current look for it.

I agree. They have a GREAT regular uniform set and solid identity that fits the moniker much better than the gimmicky if great looking Vice sets.

There’s a reason for that. Prince himself would have a negative reception to this marketing scheme. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

I feel that if the Vice jerseys were to become the regular set, eventually people will start dumping on them. Some things are just better off as an alternate, keeping them fresh.

This is on the level of AA MiLB. Come out to the park this weekend for dollar beers and hot dogs for Prince tribute night. And that episode was based on a true story. Prince loved to ball Go A's!

Prince played ball when he was a teenager and various pickup games throughout his life. The Chappelle Show skit is funny and might seem like a joke but alot of people have said he was pretty good at basketball. https://ftw.usatoday.com/2016/04/prince-basketball-good-chappelles-show-skit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommybutler84 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Found this at my local Dick's sporting goods. I think these are the shorts for the Cleveland Cavs city uniform set. The color seems to match blue of the team breakdown for the city. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DG_ThenNowForever Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Those Prince uniforms are so dorky. Sorry. Prince had a long and varied career after Purple Rain. Yes, it was his most iconic song and album, but cosplaying as an album graphics package is kind of the opposite of rock and roll. I recognize there isn't any other culture to speak of in the Twin Cities (except for hockey and viking stuff, I guess?), so they had to do something. But something could have been like another wolf-inspired set. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brooklyn has the Biggie Coogi sweater tribute uniform. Why didn't the Warriors go with a Tupac bandana pattern uniform? Because Oakland is nowhere close to South Central LA? Warriors could go with whistle tips-inspired uniforms. Just fo’ decoration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tupac spent some of his later childhood in Oakland and got his start in the industry with Digital Underground, a Bay Area-based group. And bandanas of all colors (not just blue and red) are worn nationwide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But nostalgia makes me love the Cavs in orange and blue as well. The quasi-wordmark on the waistline is kinda cool. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.
