  1. LMU...Honestly hadn't had much of a plan here, TBH. Wish I'd had more of one. Hell, I wish I'd done more with the sun lion, this is just kinda there. Not awful, but man is this one boring. NAU...I had more of a plan here, obviously. Axe blade yoke, mountain cuffs/hem. I figured for what I was going for, the running lumberjack was a better fit as the crest than the NAU axe blade...granted, I have no idea why he's running.
  2. AKA what I've been thinking for the last few years of the Graham Mertz Experience...being able to make all the throws is worthless when you make the right throw like once every three games. Jack Coan's not gonna excite anybody, but he's generally not gonna be why you lost.
  3. I admit I never thought I'd ever see Snoopy on a helmet.
  4. OKC Thunder: the NBA's Daycare, or Pitt's Young Old Men...With Tournament Dreeeeeeams
  5. on what...let's just flip the image and slap it on our helmets...gotta love the easy button
  6. I recall some years back, the college in between Racine and Kenosha, UW Parkside, their baseball team wore the Pirates P on their caps (green outlined in white rather than gold) and wore a tweaked version of the Rangers' old lettering on their white jerseys, in green letters outlined in white and black. Not sure what they're wearing now.
  7. Looking at the Chowdaheads again...yeah, still Son of Gorton vibes...not sure the PBLA has any Canadian teams, but if there are, I hereby give the Canadian press permission to call him Highlander Jr.
  8. A pity nobody suggested either Dollars or Quartermasters, given that's where most folks see GW normally At least if they're going for unique/goofyish, those make much more sense than Truth. Blue Fog sort of makes sense if you consider the famed Washington Crossing the Delaware painting.
  9. Well, the Truth is definitely out there... I'll see myself out.
  10. There's gotta be much better ways to allude to the flag than what USA Baseball stuck itself with... unfortunately, one's taken, namely USA Hockey's logo.
  11. Off the wall guess: it'll be graphite with a white lion trimmed in blue
  12. Ugh... I'm not sure who's in worse shape between your guys and the Pirates. Almost makes me want Marge Schott back, if only because the Reds were actually good and it was more fun (and more moral) to hate that racist hag. As it is, both teams are trash, the only real difference is the Reds have Joey Votto, and the Pirates don't.
  13. Took a look at the secondary logos just now...so basically, I find myself somewhat wondering what the Rock and his people were thinking. In no particular order: Renegades: why they decided the bandit should be the secondary and the R..or A\R or whatever should be the primary baffles me. Roughnecks: no complaints here, this is actually solid. Guardians: basically they did what they should've done with Dallas Arlington, simple alternate to pair with a solid primary. Brahmas: sell this thing to the Missions is it weird to think this is better than their primary, yet shouldn't be promoted? Defenders: the secondary should've been the primary, tertiary should be the secondary, and the primary should join the scrap heap. Sea Dragons: actually pretty interesting. Inevitably, someone's gonna stick this on a Mariners concept. Battlehawks: didn't realize it was armored until I read the description...and now I realize why they're in blue/silver. Vipers: the LV is thisclose to being great, but the L is italicized, while the V isn't. Why? JUST WHY?...the fleur de lis, on the other hand, weird choice. All I can decipher is this is some strange attempt at representing all four suits at the same time.
  14. Dallas Goedert: bench area aged him by 15 years, now needs Hair Club for Men, must now retire
  15. Peak SWAC...a Mississippi Valley St. cheerleader got ejected from a game after walking into the court and touching an Alabama A&M player...coach was fussin and cussin
  16. Real life Retro Bowl, that's what when you need to go deep with 5 seconds left and your QB has maxed out arm strength...but you went deep a lot early so he's out of stamina @Red Comet, at least wear socks, man...never know what's on that floor
  17. On topic, this has been one of the better Super Bowls I've seen. Best atmosphere I can recall for one too.
  18. I'll venture to guess it was impossible for just one lineman to stop him back then too Basically ever since they opened, my high school's had a long tradition of copying the Eagles in some manner, though like @RyanMcD29's employer, back in the day the other sports went with something of a hodgepodge, for instance I recall the basketball shorts used the eagle Kent State was using in the 80s without the thunderbolt. For almost three decades, the helmets featured the older Eagle wings on white shells, basically identical to what Philly wore in the early 70s (as a bonus, paired with Packers uniforms from the neck down early on, though by the time I got there a small mural was the only evidence of that set), and then in the mid 90s it got inverted to white wings on green. Amusingly enough, our green jerseys were almost identical to the jerseys the Packers almost switched to in 94, with eagles on the sleeves instead of G's (the eagle below is slightly modified, mostly the eye but also the extra coloring is removed; when I was there, we were using the eagle unmodified beyond replacing silver with gold). Coincidentally, UW Whitewater briefly copied the Philly eagle too, before adopting a hawk head that's clearly inspired by it, but is just different enough.
  19. Basically, yes, which is why I haven't even given a Milwaukee team in either the XFL or USFL any thought (see @Sec19Row53's post). The revived AFL, though, I can see Mustangs III happening, if only because they can actually play in the city, where an outdoor team would need to play somewhere else and bear with facilities that, frankly, aren't pro quality by any stretch of the imagination.
  20. I figure that, at least for the spectator, might be chalked up to the fact that flag and tackle may use the same ball, but tend to be so different that strategies that work in flag tend to not work in tackle, and vice versa. What I mean by this is that while flag rulesets universally substitute flag pulls for tackling, few of them substitute anything for the act of blocking, and consequently, unlike tackle, there are no dedicated linemen. Ergo, flag strategies tend to look like there are too many moving parts. This dude explains it much better than I did, and offered solutions.
  21. Of course not, they're too busy injecting beagle pups with cocaine, watching roided up hamsters fight, and studying parrot love.
  22. I thought it was silly when the Thunder swapped the lettering on their white and blue jerseys, but I guess they were on to something, given the last several Bucks games I've watched, it feels like I've only seen one or two white at home games.
  23. Yeah, they kinda fluctuated between "we're red and white" "no, we're red and gold," and "no, no, no, we're red and silver" for most of their first two decades.
