  1. "Washington Renegades" brings up imagery I'm pretty sure we'd all like to avoid.
  2. It's about time they finally got rid of that stock tiger illustration that comes with Inkscape.
  3. I don't usually like bowls that are just named after the sponsor, but that logo is pretty damn nice. And who wouldn't love a bowl of Cheez-Its?
  4. These border adds are ridiculous. This Visa one keeps refreshing and surrounding the screen every ten seconds.
  5. It's not like they don't have a history of changing their mascot. Unfortunately, they settled on the most boring and generic one for the past 35 years. I'm all for using the black squirrel as their mascot, or even going back to using a golden retriever.
  6. It depends on the type of stripe though. A single helmet stripe like Penn State looks fine with blank pants, but Marshall has five stripes on their helmet. Having something that busy with nothing else on the uniform makes the design very unbalanced.
  7. I have a golf shirt this exact color, and the color was labeled as "Jazzy", for whatever that's worth. In certain light it can look more red, but it is most definitely pink/magenta.
  8. I don't know about the KKK, but my racist uncle has a Canadian buddy that flies the "Confederate" flag. My racist uncle just loves it, and mentions it every time he talks about visiting his Canadian friend.
  9. I noticed this oddity with the Nike Youth Replica while looking at jerseys on Fanatics: (No idea what's going on with that crappy sleeve photoshop job)
  10. I like the idea of the stripe, but it would be greatly improved with the removal of the logo from the sleeve. Then it would be a unique, quirky, but simple stripe design. Instead it's a cluttered mess. Logos on top of stripes always look terrible (with the exception of the Seahawks).
  11. Ugh, this again. As an Irish-American Notre Dame fan and a disaffected Washington fan, they are not the same. Not even remotely.
  12. Notre Dame probably sells more merch than UCLA and Cal combined. Their fanbase is massive. How much of that merch is UA stuff I'm not sure. All the shirts I've bought during the UA run have been made by Champion.
  13. They also have a very slight (and inconsistent) curve to the vertical strokes, making it even worse. It looks like it's melting, or like it's a bad photocopy of the actual logo.
  14. It does kinda look like muscles and tendons now that you mention it...
  15. I'm amazed they got away with such blatant yet poorly executed theft for 19 years.
  16. Pretty clever. And a lot less complicated than this mess Pitt tried to pull off: The punter was #98 and that's backup QB Jeff George Jr. in some weird 98/96 hybrid. It didn't work.
  17. At what once again? This is nothing like the rebrands they're infamous for. It's not an anthropomorphic gummy bear swinging a bat. This is pretty restrained for them. The claw marks on everything is definitely overkill. The F logo is all that needed them, and even that could have been executed better. The red pants are bad. They might be somewhat salvageable if everyone wears them up with black socks showing, but we know that's not happening. Also a black belt and piping down the side. Who thought solid red pants would look anything but terrible?
  18. I can't even close some of the the ads. Clicking the X just takes me to the ad page. So I can't escape the unending cycle of borders.
  19. There's an ad for Charmed that keeps coming up, and even after the border disappears nothing is clickable. Then it'll close and reopen with the border, leaving only a split second window to actually select something. It makes the mobile site unusable.
  20. I'm getting the screen framing ads too, and it's annoying as hell. It's not just a one and done pop-up either. It keeps cycling through ads so there's continuously an animated ad around the screen.
  21. The concepts section got hit hard. 29 pages of spam threads and growing.
  22. Toledo to Detroit = 60 miles Lansing to Detroit = 90 miles Is there a reason you chose to work with the specific list of minor league teams that you did? You went down to single A for teams like Lansing, while ignoring triple A teams like Syracuse. And why'd you move the Redbirds to Omaha? What's the method to your madness?
  23. I don't like the circle avatars, although mine does actually kinda work in a circle.
  24. Notre Dame (all sports): My dad is a huge ND fan, as was his dad before him. My parents were raised Catholic, and I'm of Irish heritage. Plus I like wearing Kelly green. Detroit Tigers: Living in the Toledo area, they're the "local" team, and my family are Tigers fans. Washington Redskins: My older brother started following them when they played the Bills in the Super Bowl, and like many things I just copied him, and we've been suffering ever since. I've come very close to giving up on them recently, but then my name would make no sense. If I ever were to abandon Washington, my team would be the... Green Bay Packers: My dad's team. Plus their uniforms are beautiful, and I love the whole small-market-fan-owned thing they have going on. I almost bought my dad stock for Christmas when it was available, but I was poor and had just started a new job at the time. Detroit Red Wings: See Detroit Tigers. Toledo Mud Hens: Toledo. Toledo Rockets: Toledo. Toledo Walleye: You get the idea. Ohio schools NOT named Ohio State: I live in Ohio, so I root for in-state schools. Living in Ohio as someone who's not an OSU fan, I've grown to hate OSU and their fans, and their pompous "We own this state" attitude. Los Angeles Clippers: I don't really care about the NBA, but if I did, the Clippers would be my team because my dad's cousin played for them (and was probably the best player on the team) back in the days when they sucked. Everton: Just because. I don't really follow the EPL, but I figured I should have a team.
  25. I think the addition of black to the Lions' uniforms was a good thing, once they refined it with their current look.
