Discrim

I find myself loving the optical illusion of waviness. And wishing I'd thought of it.

At least the helmets weren't the same color for both teams...and I'm having visions of the visual nightmare that was Notre Dame @ Georgia Tech in 2006.

Huh, I thought Donruss was baseball only...but fair enough on the Bucs. As far as teams I don't actively hate (Cowboys, Niners, Vikings, Dolphins, Jets were my 90s shortlist...funny thing is I can't even remember why I hated the Jets, there was literally no reason to ) I can definitely say I never really played as the Bucs either.

It's all your fault...you just HAD to pretend to be Captain Jack last month, didn't you?

Gotta agree, figured I'd watch a bit of this one and the Noles we're playing pretty well tonight.

Figured I'd run over to Goodwill b/c I hadn't been there in a while, came across this... Because sure, why not?

Iowa scoring exactly 7 points w/o a touchdown and winning...and UNC giving up 40 points in a single quarter yet still winning. On the same Saturday. Only college football

Literally my only good memory of the all navy set is the first time they wore it...and only because I wound up being yanked into an otherwise all-girl watch party back when I was in college. I'd rather see the Bears wear fake snouts for a game than all navy at this rate.

Yeah, I figure Frost is gonna have to pull a rabbit out of his hat if he wants to not be fired, let alone get to the "his job as long as he wants it" level Fitzgerald's at.

Toronto Metropolitan University: Bold Like Us Yeah, they may as well have kept Rams.

Leave it to the Reds farm system to be so barren they had to sign a dead dictator *ducks tomatoes*

I'm imagining if Red Wolf was a fan of the Razorbacks he'd be an Arkansas version of you rn given that the Huskers seem to embarrass themselves at a similar rate to Arkansas nowadays. Scratch that, the Huskers aren't that much of an embarrassment yet, they're closer to Tennessee-level humiliation.

Watching a bit of this American Heritage-Los Alamitos game...#4's almost TD just now where he was caught from behind about 2 yards shy of a score after busting through the defense literally had me humming the Retro Bowl music

You are correct, silver numbers was 93 only, then black numbers/script afterwards (with a black version with teal numbers added a few years later IIRC)

Likely unpopular opinion: Kenyon's owl... it's not half bad.

You'd be surprised how popular scripts resembling the mid 2000s Padres (and colored jerseys reminiscent of the late 90s Padres) are among college baseball teams. I am somewhat surprised that script migrated to the football helmet bumper, but only because things unique to the baseball teams (Arizona State's interlocking AS, Miami's English M, Oklahoma State's use of just an O) rarely ever get used by the other sports, Rice's English R being a notable exception.

Sharks/Seals mashup...well holy crap. It's really happening. Without actually trying to, I called it.

Yeah, it doesn't really feel that way given that the Cards have moved twice, have usually been mediocre to awful, and they're probably the only team out there whose attempted sale resulted in an entire rival league forming...out of several prospective buyers they turned down, at that

Gonna avoid the golf answer, it's been taken. College basketball is my answer...sure, I know who's usually good, I know some of the more prominent coaches, but I vastly prefer watching NBA games to college. Ironically, College Hoops 2K7 had one of my favorite dynasty modes. TBH, if not for the sole pro game I've ever attended being a Bucks game, I probably wouldn't have specified college, just put down basketball.

So basically what the Cubs did last year, then.

Fitting....feels like Haslem's the last remaining member of the expansion Heat

Actually the gold jerseys came around about a year or two before they changed the regular set's bronze to gold IIRC.

Only one thing prevents that...the fact that the cap would unavoidably be frequently mistaken for the Cubs outside of Colorado. True, they could instead go for something that took inspiration, but you're probably stuck with purple. I dunno, I think I was pretty successful in that regard, but what do I know?

Can confirm...the UW system doesn't do it, a vestige of when they had nothing to do with Madison. Only ones I know that use red at all are River Falls (main) and Green Bay (secondary). UWM used to but it's been decades since they did.

I recall FAMU doing this in either the late 90s or early 2000s. No idea why they did it like that.
