  1. Most of the all-gray away uniforms today looked terrible due to the mismatched shades of the pants and jerseys.

     

    The only ones that I couldn't tell were the Yankees and Giants. 

     

    Just a huge, huge disappointment that needs to be fixed ASAP.

  2. If you're a fan of a team with new uniforms/logos on the way, you should not be worried nor excited. It's all about acceptance. 

     

    You already know they're going to look like crap........ mono looks out the wazoo, plain, all-white "socks" (aka leggings), weird numeral fonts, no stripes on the pants. 

     

    Acceptance is the key. Expect absolute garbage and you'll be at peace.

    Marlins using blue better and it actually improves their black when you have this better balance of colors. 

     

    Look at Luzardo's jersey. Now we know what players look like when they sweat in the new jerseys. I don't know how they compare to last year's jerseys but there it is.....

    True, but there is grayscale for the Falcons using black so heavily with their 90's set. That said, I think it would look off if the Falcons brought in silver pants today.

     

    This does make me wonder, though. What teams with at least four colors, including white, may want to try having four jerseys and/or pants in each color?

     

    Don't give the Commanders any more ideas please....

     

    On second thought, gold/yellow pants would be all that's left to try so that would be a huge improvement

  5. Agree that most of these Nike jersey changes are a lateral move at best and some are disappointing. 

     

    However, for those of you willing to fork over nearly $600 for a flimsy piece of recycled material, at least the 'diaper design' of the old Majestic jerseys is no more. If Nike had unveiled that horrid design, we'd be crucifying them for months....

    It looks the new Nike Template is going to force the Orioles and the Braves into a sleeve cuff instead of the triple piping they had

     

    Not surprising but that's a shame. I bet the Braves' version will be even more jarring. 

     

    The new piping seems to have thicker black sections than the previous piping. It's a small change but I'm wondering if it will look funny with the piping on the pants (unless they alter that too?)

    All the teams playing on Thanksgiving are wearing a jersey patch honoring John Madden.

     

     

    No joke, I heard multiple people who thought the patch was a Native American because the league was honoring them on Thanksgiving. If you look at it very quickly, it does kind of look like the old Washington logo.

    So here’s your shocking stat of the day. Since 2018, the Saints have worn gold pants only 12 times (not including the throwback game last season vs. the Rams). From 2018-2020, the Saints wore gold pants just once each season. They wore gold pants 6 times in 2021, which is the most in that span and the most since 2015 when they were worn 10 times that season.
     

    That’s 12 times out of 91 games up till now. Pretty sad if you ask me. It’s obvious the Saints hate both their gold pants and one of their team colors…

     

    That's ok, it's not like they have a winning legacy and won a Super Bowl in the gold pants or anything.

     

    Oh wait.

    Can anyone remember a time when a team won the World Series and then immediately introduced new uniforms the following season?

     

    The Nationals right after Covid..... they mostly wore their gold-trim championship uniforms at home but they also debuted a similar 'new' home white uniform that was basically the navy Nationals script (sans gold) that they had been wearing as a spring training jersey in previous years.

     

    Kinda odd now that I think about it. But then again, they make poor uniform/identity choices all the time.

    Burn. Everything

     

    Get rid of name, burgandy and gold. Everything.

     

    Salt the earth baby and make it a new team.

     

    It's funny you should say that because living in the DC area, I hear the phrase "Burgundy and Gold" used almost as much as "Washington" and maybe even more so than "Commanders". 

     

    I just don't see them getting rid of the color scheme. There was an actual history before Snyder and a pretty successful one at that. And it works in that division too. Red, white, and blue would just be so predictably boring for the DC region.
