  1. I think the Cardinals, Ravens (when worn with white pants) and Eagles black 3rds are the best of their sets.

    Especially Arizona. I think the home and roads are atrocious but love the black ones.

    It's not BFBS when it's part of the teams color scheme.

    I agrre on ravens and eagles. I just got a black eagles jersey the other week in fact :D

  2. Prob a very unpopular Opinion, but i don´t like seeing all MLB players in #42, MLB goes overboard with this every year........and MLB.com is filled with the same stories every year as well, Why can´t they let it go, and maybe do this jersey thing when J.R (would)turn 100 years old. His jersey number is retired, still all players wear it , i think it is stupid, especially to do it every damn year.

    I agree, no baseball player should be above mlb that everyone has to wear their number.

    I get it, the country was mean once upon a time and didn't allow colored people in the mlb, do we have to be reminded of it every year?

    If everyone is truly equal then we shouldn't have to come across as kissing their asses for the past still.

    But that's just my opinion.

    While I think everyone wearing 42 is a bit much, I don't think the impact of Jackie Robinson's achievements should be ignored or saved for the major anniversaries. I think remembering him and paying tribute to him every year is the right thing to do.

    I'm not saying he should be completely ignored, bring it up, show the clips, Hell wear a patch for the day, but they don't have to go to the ridiculous lengths that they currently do.

  4. I know I am opening the can of worms doing this...but what was probably the first thing to use a fixed graphic showing the score of the game? Videogames of course!

    Here is the NHL Series from the genesis...(NHL Hockey, NHLPA 93, NHL 94 and NHL 95)

    Interestingly got NHL 96 - 98 they changed it probably to look more like TV at the time, so they went with just a clock and the score would come up during faceoffs. They would use the exact same graphics for Nhl 97 and 98.

  5. 9-19-2004%20Phillies%20vs%20Expos%20054%20(3)-M.jpg

    Expos Vs Phillies @ CItizens Bank Park in 2004. Actually that is who we played in the first regular season game at citizens bank park.

    I actually saw them twice that year! 2005 they would be the nationals.

    I suppose you can say the same for expos vs padres in petco park.

  6. Hmmm...Then of course there were a couple of radio stations in NYC that failed MISERABLY.... Blink 102.7, 101.1 JACK FM, Fresh 102.7 , HOT HITS 103.5 WAPP, FM NEWS 101.9, just to name a few...now if only somebody could put those logoa up....

    I do remember Jack FM.

    We're going to play all the Bon Jovi and U2 we want no matter how offended people get by it because we're anti-establishment.

    Think that lasted about six months.

    We still have a Jack station here in Buffalo. For those that don't know, the idea behind the Jack format was to emulate the variety of music people might carry around with them on their iPods... with the idea that most people don't just listen to rock or just country, etc. I loved that station when it first came out, but now it's 90% bad 80's music with some other decent stuff sprinkled in.

    Well the other thing that made Jack such a bad idea was that it replaced WCBS-FM which was and still is a the most popular oldies station in the New York metro area.

    So not only was it a bad radio station that nobody wanted to hear, it replaced another station that had a very loyal following.

    Also I will post the logo of Jack FM when it was first launched. To me its one of the perfect examples of something wanting to be seen as anti-establishment, but at the same time being as mainstream as you can get.

    lol in philly we have ben fm...cause of ben franklin.

  7. Ok so MANY of you are missing the point! like these logo's

    Circuit_City.png

    Circuit City was successful when they used this logo, someone else posted their circle logo which would be more associated with them going downhill and failing.

    200px-Kmart_logo_1990s.svg.png

    Kmart used this logo in the 90s, and I would say they had moderate success for a while using it, when they started using the Big Kmart logo is when they clearly started losing touch and then they changed it again in the mid 2000s, so either of these logos would be more appropriate.

    nbc-peacock.gif

    NBC made this logo in the 80s, obviously they had many great years with it, they would've had to change their logo in the last few years to be able to post a logo of theirs for this.

  8. While we discuss usually when a company changed their logo whether its an upgrade or downgrade from the previous logo.

    Sometimes a company will change their logo to try to freshen their failing brand up, and then fail either way, always forever having that last logo being associated with their demise.

    So lets post some examples!

    thq_logo.gif

    This happened 2 years ago, january 2011, this week THQ sold all their assets to other companies and is no longer basically.

    and an older example.

    Wcw_logo-1.jpg

    Introduced in 1999, wcw would never beat wwf raw is war in the ratings again and 2 years later would be sold.
