Conversely, Albany has one of the biggest arenas among the small-northeast-market teams, something like 12,000, and their attendance is terrible. I suspect apathy toward the Devils and the Devils running a bare-bones operation that doesn't get people in the door. Maybe that's where the Rangers' affiliate belongs, not Hartford or Binghamton. You've gotta imagine most people in Albany are Rangers fans.

This is the problem in my understanding. I'm not sure how much of an NHL following there is in Albany, but many SUNY students from Westchester, NYC, & LI are Rangers fans. Of course college students aren't buying season tickets, but if they actually make an effort to appeal to that demographic their attendance could shoot up remarkably.

They won't, but I can see an AHL where New York State is down to Rochester, Syracuse, and Albany, and that's it. The AHL has already retreated from the Maritimes, and now they're barely even in New England (Bridgeport is in Fairfield, it doesn't really count). The Pennsylvania teams all seem safe because the arenas are new, medium-sized, and in proximity to their parent teams, but you gotta think Utica isn't gonna last much longer with a distant parent team and a small old arena in a small poor town. Hard to feel great about the direction of this league; no one's calling for an all-New York bus league but concentrating on the hockey-fertile Northeast seems like good business for the game at all levels.

If Binghamton doesn't get another AHL team, which would honestly be crushing considering how depressed the city is, I could see Syracuse getting a solid bump in attendance. It's only an hour north from Bingo, which has had AHL hockey almost continuously since the late 70's, and seeing the crowd that shows up at B-Sens games I'm sure many of them are traveling a bit to even get to Binghamton in the first place.

I will miss that Senator head logo.

 

But when did they drop the fleshtone and go with a white face?

 

 

I'm pretty sure it was the 2014-15 season when they changed over to the old Ottawa third jersey template and the white face. I agree, definitely liked the flesh tone better.

AHL games I've been to in Rosemont, Milwaukee, and Rockford have all observed whistle courtesy, too.

First hockey game I ever went to in Binghamton an elderly lady usher grabbed me by the collar when I tried to walk up to my seat during play. Boy I felt like an idiot.

I feel like people keep asking about the same fonts. Maybe we should post a graphic in the first post illustrating what City, Demonized, Futura, and Clarendon look like.

Friz Quadrata Bold Italic.

Can't for the life of me find a similar font used for the names on the NBA 2K12 covers. Hardest part to find is a G that matches the rest of the letters. Hope you can help out:

Looks kinda similar to DIN.

Anyone know this font or something similar?

Sorry for the small, pixelated image

Gotham with modified "Q___".

I think I've finally figured out who this enigmatic dfwabel character is...

Would somebody please tell me what kind of numbers do the Blue Bombers use?

Just looks like a full block, shouldn't be too difficult to modify an existing block font in Illustrator to fit your needs.

Doesn't change the fact that you're an ignorant fool for failing to acknowledge the negative implications of the counterfeit jersey trade.

Meh

BBTV said it pretty well:

My point through this whole "debate" has always been that I don't really care if you choose to do it (though I think it's just a bad idea to), it's just that people should recognize why it's wrong and who they're hurting. If someone recognizes the facts and still chooses to do it, then oh well. Just don't come on here and defend it or argue that you're in the right.

When someone's being so ignorant to the extent that they look down upon others for analyzing the legal implications of counterfeit jerseys, they're the ones who should be laughed at. It's been said countless times within this thread and elsewhere- you may feel justified in purchasing a counterfeit jersey for reasons such as high turnover of players, the high cost of authentic jerseys, etc. but that doesn't change the fact that the counterfeit jersey market is illegal and by purchasing one you are supporting illegal trade.

I was directed to this thread by one of the guys I get jerseys for, we both think you are all hilarious. I have several china jerseys and they have all stood up to multiple washes and look great for the price. I feel no shame depriving the leagues of my money in this case. I go to several games a year, pay for center ice, sunday ticket ect... The way players change teams and teams change designs I will continue to do this.

Sick bro, you really showed us Doesn't change the fact that you're an ignorant fool for failing to acknowledge the negative implications of the counterfeit jersey trade.

New Giants World Series Ring

Not sure about the color choices but overall that's a great looking ring.

Can anyone identify the font used for 'gang green'? I want to start doing some pro combat concepts and would really like to use this font.

Bank Gothic

whats the font for

Still seeking their first win away from home, the Washington Wizards head into a road matchup with an opponent they have beaten five times in a row.

Looks like Arial to me..

is there a name for font that cavs use on their new uniforms?

Big Noodle Titling, you can download it on dafont fo' free.

Does anyone know the number font on North Carolina's basketball uniforms, or at least a close substitute?

City, somewhere between medium and bold.

Here's another one I don't think has been mentioned- I much prefer this type sleeve cut:

to this type sleeve cut:

I really like the current St.Louis Rams uniforms.

Glad I could help

Yeah, I'm never organized with layers like you're *supposed* to be so this is a hell of a lot easier than dealing with masks. Glad I could help.

This is how I add logos to jerseys:

Start out by getting your logo and jersey you want to put it on:

Copy the base of the jersey and place the logo over wherever you want it.

Select it all then click "Divide" in the pathfinder window. It turns all the divided paths into a group. Ungroup it all.

If you zoom in you see it divided all the paths wherever the logo overlaps the jersey.

Delete all the stuff besides the overlapping space, aka what's selected in the last photo and the jersey base. You end up with this:

I usually group the remnants of the original logo so it's easier to work with. Then drag 'em over on top of the jersey and place 'em. It helps to zoom in a good amount to make sure it lines up seamlessly.

Tada, perfectly placed logos.

Prolly not the "correct" way to do it, but you don't have to mess with layers or anything so it's pretty easy to do.

I actually have bucco's action templates but I'm not sure if he's distributing them anymore so your best bet is to pm him and ask..
