  1. This is the only positive that could come out of this template change. Although I'm not sure it's a time that Pittsburgh fans want to recall. Hot take: I think the Batman jerseys work much better with their pants and helmet than their classic sleeve striping does.
  2. A white helmet with metallic gold/copper flakes? An anodized red facemask that can look various shades of red depending on lighting? A bit larger helmet logo that's metallic and has gradients like the one on the black helmet? Am I getting warm or cold?
  3. Gross. The Fusion is such a massive downgrade from the Untouchable, but Nike gonna Nike, and push their "innovation" because they can't leave well enough alone.
  4. Ripon has an elusive technology that allows them to create an accurate forest green.
  5. Fair point, but I would hope that there's a limit to how many times the league will submit to Jeffrey Lurie's peer pressure.
  6. The sad thing is that most people are too ignorant to realize just how cheap and inaccurate these jerseys are. I want to like the USFL, but everything about it just seems so damn flimsy.
  7. Nope, only jerseys have to stay for five years, because that's what sells the most. The Eagles' black helmet will be a one and done, and the Rams showed that even primary helmets don't need to last very long.
  8. I'm calling bullsh!it on this one. The hats are in stock and ready to ship. They wouldn't manufacture thousands upon thousands of placeholder hats that would be obsolete by the time the draft happens. My guess is that this reddit guy is looking at photos that have terrible lighting and/or saturation. Cardinal and gold in poor lighting look an awful lot like "maroon and orange".
  9. That's an interesting historical quirk, and explains a lot.
  10. Thanks for making me sound like Tnak, but that's not at all what I said. My question is why have two no-sugar versions that use the same artificial sweeteners? Aspartame has a very noticeable flavor to it, so if the goal is to make it taste more like the regular drink than Diet, why use the same sweetener when other no calorie sweeteners are available? I'd like a no-sugar option, but aspartame is a no-go for me.
  11. I've never really understood the shift from "Diet" to "Zero Sugar", while still producing both products. They both use aspartame and acesulfame potassium, and they both taste terrible. I guess the Zero Sugar drinks might be slightly less terrible, but they're all the same thing to me. They could use sucralose, allulose, or erythritol to differentiate one, but nope. They both have that distinctive aspartame taste, so why should I buy Zero Sugar if I already don't like Diet? I guess what I'm saying is, making Zero Sugar the focus of the brand is stupid.
  12. Burger King didn't go back to their old logo either, but they did a much better job of making it feel like they went back to the old logo. The font in the new Pepsi logo is just so obviously wrong, and the black looks out of place.
  13. The t-shirts I found with athletic gold: And some other stuff with athletic gold:
  14. At least that logo has Testudo holding the flag. They haven't used a logo with Testudo since 2012, and the turtle shell helmets were back in 2011. A whole decade of nothing but flag imagery across all their sports. They may as well be the Maryland Marylanders at this point. They've been so focused on the state's unique flag that they've forgotten about the school mascot that is also incredibly unique.
  15. Short of Under Armour completely collapsing and getting out of uniforms entirely, I don't see that happening. As long as Kevin Plank still has a flag fetish, Maryland will plaster it all over.
  16. Too bad it's still the crappy blue-numbered green jerseys. I really hate Under Armour and their stupid insistence that all green uniforms across all sports have to have blue numbers/script outlined in gold. It sure would be nice if ND were the next team to announce their departure from UA.
  17. If my jaguar was as ugly as that helmet, I'd shave its butt and tell it to walk backwards.
  18. And both teams looked at the previous expansion of the Rockies and Marlins and said, Not my style, but a pretty solid design. Will definitely be interesting to see how all the letter logos work out though. Those could be rough.
  19. Good to know that their ransom emails will have a new logo at the top. "Give us money to access your images (that I uploaded for free), or we'll delete your account!" for the last several years. Just delete my account already you frickin grifters.
  20. How long until they put in the guy that threw him the ball?
  21. I feel sorry for Ossai. He's gonna catch all sorts of crap, and you can tell he already feels terrible. But man what a dumb way to lose a game.
