Yeah, no chance "Mighty" ever returns, nor should it. Design elements from that set, however, are another story.
-
I'm not as sold on the current look as you (a slightly simplified version would be ideal), but I feel like I'm one of few who dislikes the original red and yellow set. The combo gives off a dated feel and I don't think it should return for Houston.I may have posted this a few times before, but I don't think the Houston Rockets should ever sway from their current look...at least not for a long while. I think they're a modern classic.

I must be the only one who doesn't like these. Yeah, the primary jerseys aren't great, but this is incredibly dated and should not become the permanent jersey.

Interesting that it's all newer teams.
Florida.
Nashville and Tampa, and there might be one or two more.Minnesota and Columbus have banners for all the teams in the rafters. I think Winnipeg has them in the lobby. Who are the others?
-
The alternate mascot will be a heart named Ford. Also swinging a bat.
I literally pictured a swinging whale when I read thisI was scrolling through Twitter when I noticed that Brandiose retweeted the list of finalists for the Hartford team, so I assume that means they are in fact making the logo package for the team.

Here's an unpopular opinion:
THAT IS THE WORST NY GIANTS UNIFORM EVER.
I cannot stand it. The color balance is horrible. Red/white/red striping is disgusting. These and the Bills uniforms from the same time are my least favorite football uniforms of all time. I could go on and on about how much I despise this uniform, but I'll spare you all.

Don't recall the exact date, it's a few weeks out still I believe.
When is that rebrand due
And the Frisco RoughRiders.
West Virginia Black Bears, that's the last one right??The Memphis Redbirds are revealing a new look on Thursday:
Having seen the new logo set, I can verify it puts their brand more in-line with St. Louis (see image #2 here), which makes sense now that the Cardinals own the Redbirds.
I can also say this is not the final reveal in MiLB...

Yeah, that's what I was thinking of. I feel like a modernized version of that would be neat. Take the blobby bear holding a bat and turn it into a bear swinging a bat. Or at least in a batting stance.
The only bear-with-bat logos I recall the Cubs using were from the early 1900s, and that bear was just holding the bat nonchalantly instead of in a legit batting stance.I'm probably in the minority in wishing the Cubs set included a swinging bear logo. Something about that just screams Cubs to me, perhaps because of Chicago's history of bat wielding bear logos. But I understand those who are against it due to the prevalence of bat swinging logos these days.
Again, too bad that's been overdone lately.

Correct. Most Minor League teams had them this year.The star could be the MiLB version of those incredibly stupid Stars N Stripes caps MLB had last year.

You're not wrong. The weird thing about this is that the fans are now forced to be (LA) Dodger fans. You don't have to be a fan of the big league team to be a fan of the minor league team. I know it's just a business strategy, but I feel like everyone has figured out to go the opposite direction.1. The fans liked the RedHawks name.
2. If the name HAD to be changed, the fans would've liked it to be the 89ers.
3. The Dodgers IGNORED their fans and dumped the successful brand and mascot.
That's how I see it.

It would probably help if the affiliates were located anywhere near the parent clubs on the coasts. There's no need to brand a team in Oklahoma based on a team in Los Angeles, California. It feels very forced. Nothing about Oklahoma City connects with the Los Angeles Dodgers. Don't brand them as such.
Wrong. it's great for regional teams like the Cubs, Cardinals, and Braves. It doesn't work quite so well for teams on the coasts, for some reason. While farm systems of Cardinals and Braves dotting the heartland sounds right, I can only associate "Dodgers" with Brooklyn, Los Angeles, and Vero Beach. I would never think to associate them with Oklahoma City in any way.The only time the minor league team should have the same name as the parent team is never.
-
I was REALLY hoping for a black and gold theme like the teaser image, I thought that would've looked slick. I'm talking minimal white, mostly black trimmed in gold and gold on black. Maybe I'll throw together a concept of what I'm picturing.

Let's see about the 1987-90 Chicago White Sox:
Cap (and cap logo)
Home and away jerseys:
Colorwerx, do you have these?
-
Of all those unique names they wound up with a generic bear name? Disappointing.
-
It was worn at least once.http://exclusivepro.com/images/products/productmain_367_1_zoom.jpg
Minnesota Twins red jersey. I believe it was not worn. If it was, it was worn once or twice. No photos being worn in a game
It's even on the mothership I believe.
-
But due to the NBA's stupid logo change fee, it won't actually become the official primary logo.If you go to Hawks.com, look at the court, uniforms, or anywhere else, the primary is clearly being phased out. It's nowhere on the team website.

Is this against Cuba? -
(they are)Ugh the post season uni patches look like ads in all honesty...

-
The Quebec Nordiques did not have a good identity.
-
I like orange as an accent color for the San Jose Sharks. It adds some flavor to the look and makes the original set look bland.

I like the current Falcons look more than anything they have previously had. In fact, I love it.
