That's right, my bad.... I was thinking of Dixie. BTW, I don't know Jazz at all.... and that fact was from the Jazz's own website. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no Bengal tigers in Cincinnati, so who the hell cares Aside from copying the Browns' "CB" initials, I believe Cincy's nickname was a reference to the Cincinnati Zoo.

MCM0313 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Don't know how widespread this opinion is, but I think the Pacers' new duds are the best they've looked since at least the Flo-Jo uniforms of the '90s. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFGiants58 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Had the Astros changed their name to "Diesels," "Railmen," or "Colts" with their move to Minute Maid Park, I would have loved to see their identity form around these two uniforms: The brick-centric look could have been fantastic. Still, I'm glad they came to their senses and brought back navy/orange. Tangentially, this color scheme (if the Diamondbacks weren't using it) would be good for the Rangers. 4 Quote MLB: Project 32 (Complete), MLB: The Defunct Saga (Complete) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love it if the home just said "Pacers" and the road* just said "Indiana." I don't like the circular wordmark. Everything else is nice, though. *or whatever those jerseys are designated.

logo-maker Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 I thought that any of these could pass for a one game alternate (could even work in the most current uniform template). 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daniel75 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 The Rams have never looked great, ok sure, but not great. I actually prefer them in blue and white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AstroCree Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Rams current set looked great with the gold pants. When they got rid of them for some unknown reason and started wearing navy pants, that's when it went downhill. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 I think this is unpopular: I'd rather the Rams stick with the St. Louis colors than go with blue and white. (Dickerson era is best; change to it now or wait until new stadium...but no interim blue/white helmet) Quote Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

I remember hating the royal blue and athletic gold when I was growing up. I never thought I would ever prefer them in that look over anything. However, it's miles better than the drab St. Louis look. In short, I completely agree with you. They haven't looked great in anything, and the blue and white is the best look. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
