Other than the Stars logo, which I think improved, and the Gamblers logo which is virtually unchanged, the logos are a downgrade from the original classics, IMHO. The Panther head really looks weaker without it being solid...the head blends into the same-color background. The Stallions looks like a middle-school logo. There's nothing defining the bottom of the neck...how's that going to work on a helmet? The "B" logo looks like it took heavy inspiration from the Birmingham Steel. The Maulers looks like clip-art. The work definitely looks weaker than the original. That's some thoughts off the top of my head. Just really disappointed.

While I understand why players wanted the sleeves shorter, I hate the look. Some in recent years looked like they were wearing tank tops. Maybe a solution would be to require short sleeves the length of a man's tshirt, with a stretchy tshirt under the jersey and padding that could have stripes. The other thing that is really starting to look bad is players wearing essentially bicycle shorts and tights underneath. Pants should at least cover the knee, as they do in the pic above. The monchrome unitard is just fugly.

Sidney, I'm not trying to be picky but the logo is still off to me. There's something out of proportion that I can't put my finger on, but it's like my mind is seeing something that's partially cat and partially dog. I'm thinking it may be the top of the head and the ears that reminds me more of a dog barking than a cat roaring. I think you're on the right track, though.- 326 replies

OMG!!! MY EYES! MY EYES! There were some around this time (another is the stupid Birmingham Baraccudas) that are just such a nightmarish eyesore that if I were player, I'd sue for PTSD. Seriously. Just...vomitus.

I think I drooled a little.

I absolutely love this concept. And the helmet. In today's world of wild helmets, I think it works as a legit option and definitely gives it a unique looks. I feel sorry for the Jags. Every time they work on a new uniform, the result is a forced-look, or a VERY weak effort like the version where gold was dumped from the uniform. It's like they don't know what to do with everything and it becomes a train-wreck.

The first time the Gunslingers logo was revealed, I literally thought it was a joke. Seriously. They went as cheap as possible by snatching of a comedic design by a beat writer. I've always wondered if Rocky and Bullwinkle were friends of the logo's.
-
AH! Okay, now that you've explained it, I see it.

First, let me say I've enjoyed your series. You've presented some interesting takes on USFL updates and I really like your Bulls concept quite a bit! And just turning the Maulers' logo a bit so it appears he's leaning into the swing...that by itself is an improvement and well done! I don't mean tobe a jerk when I say this, but I'm seriously not getting the Stars logo. Is it supposed to be an arrow breaking through the star or maybe a space capsule? I'm honestly not sure what I'm looking at, which sounds harsh and maybe it's just me, but I like the direction you've taken it and just feel like come clarity might help.

The goofy number font AND the whole "gel" look. The whole thing looks dumb. I didn't really miss the yellow and blue classics when they changed up to blue and gold. But these putrid things they have now make me yearn for the classic blue and gold which was immeasurably superior to the current set.
-
I can understand Surge and MadDogs. Surge due to one of the most powerful earthquakes in US history happening in the area (closer to Memphis, but still...) and the Mad Dogs were a slap at the NFL for Memphis not awarding the Hound Dogs to them, but that reference is really dated now.
-
I don't like them, I LOVE them. Bravo! What a sharp, distinctive color palette!
-
So they put lipstick on a pig. But it's still a pig and the uniforms are still fugly. Like painting the Titanic a different color in hopes it will avoid the iceberg,
-
I love you series and what you're doing with the teams, but I'm not going for the helmet and logo. I loved the original Feds logo, even if it was dated...not crazy about this one. Did you try to merge the original birdhead logo with the Stallion's waiving stripes, with a black bird head transitioning to green? While I think the silver helmet looks good on paper, it seemed like the green didn't pop as much on when the Feds made that move...like it was watered down by bleed-through from the silver. Uniforms are perfection.
-
Nice add-on...forgot that one. IMHO, gray facemasks are okay in some situations where silver or gray is used in the color scheme. I'm fine with the teams like the Giants, Raiders, Cowboys, even Eagles using gray facemasks, but on teams like the Colts, Bills, Cards and formerly Browns, I hate it.
-
This is what the Falcons and Saints remind me of when they go with their unitard look. Essentially long-johns without the butt-flap, but knowing Nike, they'll try that at some point. The only difference is the presence of numbers on the NFL uniforms. Just say "NO'. It's a bad, bad look.
-
While it remains to be revealed what we will see yet in 2021, this is my list of things I DON'T want to see: gradients piping gradients chrome gradients unitards gradients solid socks that match the pants, regardless of jersey gradients eyesore numbers like the current Falcons, Titans or digital Bucs gradients
-
I was really hoping the Titans were going to go to helmets utilizing their medium blue when they did their overhaul a few years back.
-
While I graduated elsewhere, I went to Mercer for my freshman college year. I love this logo and would buy merchandise with it.
-
Hmm...I didn't see this posted in the last 2 weeks so wanted to share the new Defenders and Dragons secondaries.
-
The original Outlaw logo was ditched because some people felt it looked like a Star of David. The Xtreme logo was the one that some thought looked like a swastika...to me it looked like a weird double boomerang.
-
"Not that there's anything wrong with that." There's also maroon, which is very underused. Hmm...also just occurred to me they didn't use any metallic gold, either.
-
I'm partial to red with a black facemask.
-
Yes, I like this!
