Bayne Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 I always think of the Bruins and how their numbers always look fuzzy on TV. There's no need for yellow on black to look fuzzy. I suppose there are exceptions though... I'm Danny fkn Heatley, I play for myself. That's what fkn all stars do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rohlfyboy Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 The Cowboys' uniform set is riddled with bothersome small details, from the million different shades of blue and silver, to the green pants at home, the completely different designs on the blue jersey and the white, the random inclusion of black in the white jersey's sleeve stripes, that hideous thick number font on the white jersey, etc. It's like they were trying to make the biggest possible mess of an identity.Yep. All of this. Couldn't agree more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmac Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 I'm probably the only one that likes the Bruins' current numbers more than the old ones. White and yellow look bad next to each other. Adding the white outline to the yellow numbers made it look too thick because you couldn't differentiate between the two colors. Adding black in between does wonders.But that's just my opinion. https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldschoolvikings Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 ^Why the random gray?Because it looks good? Is that not reason enough, anymore?I love the Giants uniform... top 5 in the NFL easy IMO. And if you asked me why I love it, my list of reasons would match up exactly with everyone's complaints.

pluggerplugger1 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 My apologies for the size of these pictures, but this is what I was trying to convey through words last night, when a letter or two can repeat on a baseball jersey if a player is stretching/throwing/not buttoning their jersey all the way. Drives me nuts. The Rays also have it bad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sport Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 The proportions of the helmet stripes (good) vs. the proportions of the pants stripe (bad).This has bothered me for years. I don't even know why they insist on doing it that way because they had it correct during Eddie George's time. It's especially perplexing since they moved to sleeve stripes that are supposed to match the helmet stripes. If you're going to the trouble to match your sleeve stripes (massive downgrade BTW) why not match all three? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drives me nuts. The Rays also have it bad:Russell came out with a neat innovation this year on the Buffalo Bisons jerseys which rectifies this issue. The jersey is actually a pullover but it still has buttons, so it looks like a traditional jersey, and then the entire script is sewn on top. Like this:Personally, I think it's genius and I hope major league teams take note. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a pic:Personally, I think it's genius and I hope major league teams take note.Oh man, my high school's baseball team had that same uni style and I actually thought it looked softball-ish if you will...the fact that all the buttons worked as actual buttons but you couldn't unbutton it fully drove me crazy! Plus the template we got fromRussell had plenty of pointless stripes and piping which added to the softball look of it. (sorry my post has gotten into your quote.

DaytonBlue Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 It drives me crazy when the words on the baseline of a basketball court are obstructed by the media.I also don't like when basketball teams and the NCAA feel the need to put the word basketball on the court so we don't forget what sport we're watching.

I've concluded that 90% of people here have either extreme OCD or they just like to complain.

With some really nice logos on it.To me that depends on the logo. What I really hate is when a team has a colour really important to their identity that isn't found anywhere in the logo.
