For example, you won't find a thread of white anywhere when the Trojans and Wolverines play home games: This is even more true now that Michigan has switched to Jordan brand - they changed the helmet bumper and chinstrap colors to blue: 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pewter was and is their unique color, yet they managed to leave it off the jerseys entirely in favor of generic red and black. Their current uniforms are a big improvement in that regard. Just because it’s their unique color doesn’t necessarily mean it’s best applied everywhere; it’s never appeared in any of their logos or typography, either. I do like it on the shoulders, but I thought they were good without it as well. The full red/pewter combo is on the borderline of too much dark color for me, though.

If the capitols got rid of the edge template, and turned back to copper, they’d be set.

This is my biggest issue with it. The silhouette is so stylized that it looks almost butterfly-like. I really think it’s just trying too hard to do too many things. A more anatomically sound shape to the wings would do wonders (the Capitol already tells you it’s Washington, so the W is redundant), and I don’t like the contrasting head of the eagle in conjunction with the Capitol cutout. I know it’s supposed to be a bald eagle, but especially on a dark background with a keyline, it creates a strange composition, with one focal point stacked on top of another. The golden eagle on the seal posted above is a good example of the head not needing to be white to get the point across. I also think, in general, the style of it is a bit similar to D.C. United, and both those changes would help differentiate it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jakgol 40 Posted July 11 Black cleats look awful with white socks and should be worn with black socks instead. Black cleats also look stupid when a team doesn't have black in its color scheme. Edit: Added the word cleats after the first black. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bobster 212 Posted July 11 On 6/13/2018 at 6:46 PM, MCM0313 said: That mog logo is nightmare fuel...maybe just seeing it scared the other teams into submission. Seriously though, did the football team not use the *actual* steamroller logo? +1 for someone resurrecting both the name (preferably "Steamrollers", plural, one word) and the logo. I created a Providence Steamrollers team in Baseball Mogul and played a bunch of seasons with them. They were kind of like the Yankees uniform-wise, except with white hats at home and grey hats on the road. Very old-timey. But that logo (or an update of it) could be recolored as needed. This Steamrollers logo is from the old 1946-49 Basketball Association of America team, not the football team. I found it on an old program years ago and sent a scan to CC when the site was all young and new. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like how the middle spike and band are independent pieces in the ULL logo, but the beveling is driving me nuts. It's like an Escher piece. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The ULL fleur de lis is far too detailed. It looks like it came from the late 90s/early 2000s. Too much unnecessary shading. The Saints’ fleur de lis isn’t perfect. It’s got two too many outlines for starters. Still? The overall design is solid. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

M4One 510 Posted July 16 Iconic as it might be, the Montreal Canadiens white jersey isn't that great due to the lack of striping on the sleeves. There's too much of nothing going on between the numbers and red cuff. They should switch to the white version of the home reds. If the Leafs and Bruins can do it, so can the Habs. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
