  1. I know it's supposed to be "UFL" bracketed by an abstract football, but as executed is see it as <UFL> every time, like it's in parenthesis. Is the "UFL" silent?
  2. Still More Info on Houston Texans’ Upcoming Uniforms Emerges UniWatch reported: "Last week I wrote about how we were starting to learn more about the Texans’ upcoming 2024 uni redesign. The main things in that first wave of info were the following: The team will have four new uniforms. “H-Town Blue” — i.e., the Oilers’ old shade of Columbia blue — will be an accent color, not a main color. The team’s primary logo will not be changing. The new uniforms will be unveiled during the lead-up to the draft in late April." Also: "Vosik added the four versions of the uniform will be completely different from each other and not simply a repeat in various colors. That would be a way to make sure everyone gets what they want. Before drawing up designs, the team set up a fan council, which provided feedback that varied from fans who wanted to keep the uniforms traditional to others who wanted a drastic change. Players also gave their input on what they’d like to wear starting next season." This already sounds like a trainwreck.
  3. YES! The away unis desperately cry for help. To me, the all-whites with the pale blue look like pajamas. The red stripe in the light blue numbers is horrible. What you propose is far superior and delivers a more cohesive/consistent look. One the home sets, I'd add some more black...they looked sharper that way.
  4. Based on the popularity and the recentness of the 2.0 version, I would've expected them to have kept the close to the originals for at least brand recognition's sake. Everything they touched was a downgrade IMHO.
  5. Well,. it doesn't help that the Cards rolled out an epic failure of what appears to be the laziest effort at a redesign ever. It looks more like pajamas...or a pee wee league that couldn't afford more than just the bare basic templates. The whole solid color sock thing is just a horrible idea...it's already dated just like all the piping crap that was so popular for about 20 years. I've always liked flashy uniforms and don't mind new looks at all. The problem is, Nike pushes the envelope until they tear it into a million pieces...like a drunk who just doesn't know when to quit. The throwbacks you show are all great looking. One of the best not included is the Falcons.
  6. I love the silver with the Eagle's throwbacks. It's unique and helps stand the Eagles apart from the Jets. Now if they'd only add a silver outline to the numerals...
  7. Same here, but I will always grumble we don't have the royal blues as the norm.
  8. Agreed. We know the situation in Houston is stadium availability. LV not selling tickets yet indicates to me they may wind up being moved back to LA as the Wildcats.
  9. That looks SO cheap. Agree the gold should be metallic. Even gold chrome plating would help, but this looks like something slapped together in an hour on one of those Design Star shows.
  10. Which is very ironic given that the original 1.0 vision was to create wrestling-world like drama with relationships between the players and cheerleaders. McMahon failed to understand at first that these guys are professional athletes, not actors. Careers above entertainment drama.
  11. The position of the stripes on the new jerseys reminds me of straps on bib-overalls. Particularly the light blue that looks like a light denim color. The old unis were far, far superior in so many ways.
  12. "You'll poke your eye with that thing".
  13. Agree. They made a huge mistake by not going with a metallic gold for the pants. I think a better shade would've made them nice instead of putrid.
  14. I'll agree on the "dazzle" fabric and I get why we don't have the full sleeves anymore. But there's no excuse to rejecting stripes. This classic is a perfect example. This uniform is beautiful: nice, traditional design, no wild-ass gradients, piping, panels, stripes etc, no crazy different-for-different's-sake numeral font and the those socks really help no only top off the set but make them unique. I hate most of what Nike has done to the NFL. Sometimes they've delivered but more often than not there crap is an eyesore. (Mod Edit: Photo removed for Deceptive Host. )
  15. I'm not sure which I hate more, solid color socks that match the pants color, creating a "tights" effect, or pants so freaking short they look like biker shorts. I'm old-school on wanting white socks with contrast colors on the upper half. It just looks better IMHO. Looking at the above pic of the Ravens, they look like ballet dancers.
  16. For me, the Roughnecks helmet is Exhibit A in the argument "just because you can do something doesn't mean you should".
  17. Gotta disagree on that one. I think the black a perfect contrast color with the sky blue and it's unique, especially with minimal red accents.
  18. Awesome job figuring that one out! Thanks!
  19. I get the shoulders only have starrs and no leaves. However, after finding some decent pics today of actual game jerseys, the star on the shoulders are exactly the same as those on the primary. So, not sure what the new registration implies, as the shadowing on the stars is different.
  20. I didn't realize the stars were different than the primary. I wonder why.
  21. Caught this interesting logo variation on TESS. Not sure why they would be seeking to possibly change it. The current stars are better.
  22. Design1 is the best "flame/fire" helmet design I've ever seen. Holy cow, I love that one!
  23. I know Dani and Dwayne focused on "the little things" for each team's look, but this is a great example of what happens when your "little things" are the WRONG thing. All their focus on making unneeded changes turned a great uniform into a bland one with stupid details that sometimes can't be seen on tv. Your tweak is not dramatic but it does wonders to make this a major upgrade. Your changes make these so much better! Great job!
  24. Their jerseys for sale are absolutely horrible. And even at that, they managed to get right the one thing I hate about their '23 look: the centerline striped on the numerals. They almost look like reflectors you put on clothing for running in the evening/night. Their original look was so sharp....what a downgrade.
  25. That and some more gradients and piping. And how much better would they look like with the old toilet-seat collars? Or jacquard Falcon watermarks all over the jersey. OMG. Tweed. Mix threads of red, black and silver into the fabric. Winner.
