  1. Are we sure these surveys are from the team? That is a ton of names to sift through, and many are just terrible. Washington Monarchs and Washington Royals? They can't seriously be considering names that stupid. And what the hell is a Belter?
  2. The numbers have always had gold outlines, but they didn't show up very well in old pictures and film.
  3. Qatar World Cup continues to be an atrocity. F*%#ing hell. FIFA should be permanently dismantled for allowing this.
  4. I would hope piping is dead, but trends are cyclical. I thought gradients and side panels were dead, but Nike (and the AAF and XFL2.0) proved us wrong on that.
  5. Well that would make more sense.
  6. Although he did introduce the gold helmet to Washington, along with the Packers' uniform template. Unfortunately, he never saw the gold helmets take the field. Even though he was colorblind, he must have appreciated the balance of light/dark/light to some extent.
  7. I'm guessing it's because the Packers throwback was designed during the Reebok era.
  8. Only Tom Brady could make an act of deference in the douchiest way possible.
  9. As a fan, it's really not hard to say "Washington" instead of the old name. Hopefully they have a new name soon, but until then, it doesn't help to continue using the old name.
  10. "Washington Renegades" brings up imagery I'm pretty sure we'd all like to avoid.
  11. It's about time they finally got rid of that stock tiger illustration that comes with Inkscape.
  12. 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?
  13. These border adds are ridiculous. This Visa one keeps refreshing and surrounding the screen every ten seconds.
  14. 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.
  15. 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.
  16. 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.
  17. 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.
  18. 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)
  19. 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).
  20. Ugh, this again. As an Irish-American Notre Dame fan and a disaffected Washington fan, they are not the same. Not even remotely.
  21. 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.
  22. 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.
  23. It does kinda look like muscles and tendons now that you mention it...
  24. I'm amazed they got away with such blatant yet poorly executed theft for 19 years.
  25. 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.
