Clearly the 5280 on the uniforms gives you magic powers in the playoffs.  
 

I understand the Broncos rebrand way more now. 

The Broncos would actually have to make the playoffs for that to matter.

I could have sworn 1977 happened between 1968 and 1996.

Even more so, the 1991-96 uniforms did NOT look like that, and the stripes on the socks changed in the 80's. Not to mention, the helmet logo is from 1991-96, not 1968-90.

I'm happy to see Lock do well. While I'm happy with Wilson, Lock got run out by a fanbase that's full of a bunch of spoiled brats.

That drive was impressive.

I'll take the opportunity to post these again so others can see them.

I know I posted him before, but that was the white jersey, here's one of him in the road burgundy.

Here's the other for reference.

All it really takes is someone dedicated with the time and privileges to get it done. There are a lot of updates kicking around the boards (the OJHL) that the logos have already been found and posted, they just need someone to upload them to the site. As for the logo rendering itself, we need someone like you, who is skilled enough in vector to do them.

That's one thing I've been doing for quite awhile myself, in getting older logos vectorized as accurately as possible, instead of what Ren is doing in this thread. It became something for me in doing graphics for gumball helmets and old helmet logos that were needed, which I vectorized. For example, the WFL, USFL, CFL, along with several NFL logos which had vector files that were not accurate to what was worn on the helmets.

You know what bugs me? People posting pictures of obscure or semi-obscure players with no name or reference expecting that everyone knows who they are.

I have a feeling these have been posted before at some point, but it's 183 pages and there are several duplicates.

Nash61, it's actually a drawing version of it as is the St. Louis Cardinals one I did. You can find them on the net just google NFL or MLB vintage mascots & they'll come up. There's one for every team.

EDIT: Nash beat me to it.

So here's the Broncos version...

Right team, wrong jersey. Griffey JR.

That looks perfectly fine to me. That's the entire reason I am a Mariners fan.

Did you ever make a tutorial? And how do you you do it?

There really is no way to make a tutorial on 'how to do it' because everyone has different techniques and styles. It's really not too much different than creating your own logos, except you already have a base to work with instead of just a vision in your head.

Okay, it is now Monday, so I am officially putting my hat into the ring here.

I will only do logos from the big four (NFL, NHL, NBA & MLB) and D1 (FBS) NCAA schools.

Starting on Monday, I will be getting involved in this thread myself.

However, I am going to limit myself to the major four leagues (NFL, NHL, NBA, MLB) and NCAA Football programs/logos.

This really is his wrong uniform, does anyone remember this?

He never played a down in the regular season. This was the 2005 preseason. He was let go before the regular season, he never even wore the white uniform.

How many people know that Andre Reed did almost the exact same thing for the Broncos in 2000? He wore #15 and ended up signing with the Redskins after Denver let him go.

I am considering jumping in to fill in for Ren, however, I am very reluctant because of how a considerable amount of people in this thread act and treat him.

Someone on this board (I don't remember who) has been claiming that the rule was only for last season, and teams will be allowed to have throwback helmets in coming years. However, there have been no articles to back that up. Nothing we have seen so far has said the rule was only for 2013.

I believe I saw it from an outside source, not just a message board posting. I'm trying like hell to find it... Maybe I'm just going crazy, that may be it.

This only happened once and by league rules, cannot happen again.

How come everyone doesn't know that the 'one helmet rule' was for last season only? I mean, really, everyone still assumes it exists.

are you sure it is not in place for this season?

Really? What was the point of it then? Did they change due to fan backlash like Nike with the toilet collars?

I had not heard it...however I don't expect to see them on the field again regardless.

The Skins wore their 75th only one time also:

He's talking about the one helmet rule, the NFL won't allow them to wear that leather looking helmet again

That's exactly what I was referring to, in that it was said that rule was only in place for last season. Something to do with 'breaking in' the helmets and other bs for putting it in place to begin with.

Where have you seen it written that it was only for last season?

I'll see if I can find it, but I know I read it somewhere.

A big reason why I never jumped into the thread here, as I originally was going to join in with Ren, but the requests got completely absurd and overwhelming. The impatience of people here... I believe a big reason they haven't all gotten done is because people flood him with requests and then the older ones start getting lost.

Bruce is fine

Here's the correct version (original helmet decal) of Bruce.

Turkeys & chickens are the only animals I could kill, myself, for food, because they're so friggin' ugly.

I don't usually comment in this thread, since I've actually conversed with you... but that last one, wow, holy crap on a cracker that's impressive.

I saw a plethora of fake Nike jerseys at a Play It Again Sports. There was an Eddie Lacy, Andrew Luck, current and former player Falcons jerseys, and they were all "authentic". I told the people there that they were fake, because there's obvious signs that they are, and they said that someone from the Falcons gave them those. Pfft. Whatever people.

In a situation kind of similar, I saw fake jerseys both in a Savers and a pawn shop this past summer and told people about them. The guys at the pawn shop tossed the jersey, no joke, in the trash. The people at Savers changed the price more to reflect it being not authentic.

Unfair to compare a replica to an authentic. Replicas aren't designed to meet every single specification

At $115+ they should at least get the number font right.

They also sold plenty of tackle twill (2nd tier i believe) jerseys that had the incorrect number font.

Trust me, you can't go to walmart on the weekends with out seeing at least 10 people decked out in Cowboys gear. The incorrect number font was very prominent throughout the Reebok era; and it wasn't just on the bottom tier replicas.

If you're gonna charge prices like that and can't even get the number font right, you deserve to lose business.

Can you imagine how nuts this place would go if Nike made their Game jerseys ($120) and had a block font for the Broncos?? I'd be really upset if they did that.

Reebok replicas topped off at $80, and that was only the last year they made them. They were $75 the two years before that, and $65 for a long time before that.

So the fact that the front & back numbers were a little off (the actual font is correct, it's just not bold like it's supposed to be) for a lesser alternative that isn't fake was a small trade off. Especially when compared to the ridiculous errors that all counterfeits come with.

Been looking without any luck. I would like to know what the United In Orange/TIme To Ride font is.
