How is this Houston's color before the Oilers? I'm not challenging, I'm just asking.

The Hawkeyes sought, and received, permission from the Steelers. This is the difference.

It's about this precise shade, used in combination with red, looking like the Oilers - which is very clear from that photo. How are they harmed? Another entity is making money off an image they own.

As much as people hate it or think it's petty, if they don't defend the colors, then they lose them, and anyone can start selling merchandise without their approval. This isn't about UH. It's about their property.

Really like this. Nice incorporation of a third color.

Whoever owns that overhead camera used on broadcasts really, really needs to color balance it. It made St. Louis' blue pants look purple and DC's red uniforms look orange.

They were. That Houndogs isn't anything like that fake Mountain Dew dog, and it's been around for awhile. I also would like to see the sheets for the other three. People have also shown actual Stallions and Bombers unis that were made for unveiling just in case.

I was thinking the same thing. And that's not a compliment for either of them.

I honestly don't hate purple and silver...

OK bro.

"circle jerk"... "in hand"... I see what you did there...

Not expecting them to set records each week, but also not expecting them to lose a fifth of their crowd, either. Look, I'm hoping the league makes it. I was a fan of the previous XFLs and the USFLs (especially the 1980s version), and the AAF and whatever else you want. But I can't ignore a dropoff like that. Let's hope for the best.

40,000 one week, 31,000 the next week, 22% drop. I don't know how that's out of context.

I didn't say that at all. I was just asking for reactions. "Defensive" is a reaction! BTW, that's a 22% drop week over week. Just noting.
