  1. Well I'm discovering more and more after talking with others that this is quite an unpopular opinion, but it's mine....I think Oregon State's beaver and script logo is one of the best in college, and the football helmet is one of the best. Also, I think the interlocking OS that so many people like works as an alternate, but wouldn't as a primary.
  2. It's a very good template, but is there a way that it can be a bit smaller? I tried resizing it in IrfanView and it did okay, but distorted most of it.
  3. Completely disagree with your assessment of the Periwinkle look, but I LOVED Disney's idea to change then name from "California" Angels to "Anaheim" Angels (as there are FOUR other baseball clubs in California.) ps) Did you know they almost changed the name to the "Mighty Angels of Anaheim"??? Haha! How AWFUL would that have been!? Also, here's a great argument in favor of retaining the Anaheim identity and dropping Los Angeles from the name... "During his testimony this week, Moreno put on an exhibition of how not to win over friends in Anaheim. At one point, he noted that the name changed was focused around drawing fans from the ?L.A. media market.? In doing so, he compared the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim to the New York Yankees and Mets. Those two teams don?t pay homage to the Bronx and Queens respectively; why should he pay homage to Anaheim? Of course, what Moreno failed to mention contains a little lesson in geography. The Bronx and Queens are part of New York City while Anaheim is part of the O.C. It?s not a borough in Los Angeles; it?s not a suburb of Los Angeles; and in fact, it?s a good 30 miles away from Los Angeles. The New York Jets and Giants of New Jersey are closer to their namesake than the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim are to theirs." Thats a perfect argument to drop Los Angeles, great find. I am also against the use of Los Angeles, as I saw during my senior trip to Los Angeles, that the Angels' use of it makes no sense. I saw what this article argues - there really is quite a distance between Anaheim and LA. Also, I understand your disagreement on the periwinkle look, but I will say this: during my senior trip, I went to Hollywood, Anahiem, and the Six Flags. During my time there, I was shocked at how many Disney-era hats I saw in each place being worn. I'd think it's safe to say it outnumbered the current hats. There was even a whole family at the six flags donning either the authentic or a fashion style featuring the winged A. I'm not implying that it's the most popular among Angel fans because I really don't know, but I really struck me at how many I saw being worn.
  4. I know I'm probably in the minority on this one, but, as I mentioned before, the late 90's periwinkle Disney set is my all-time favorite for the Angels. I understand many don't like the Disney looks of either the Angeks or the Ducks, but in my opinion, I really think both of those identities were great.
  5. I agree. I love these. Thirded. I really don't understand why people dislike them, I can't see anything wrong with them. But, that's just me.
  6. I hate the Chargers' current uniforms. The bolt on the sleeve instead of the shoulder looks akward, and nothing is ever consistent. On the home, the bolt on the helmet and sleeve are on white, but on the pants, they're on blue. On the roads, the bolt on the helmet and pants are on white, but the bolt on the sleeve is in blue. The alternate is the same way as the home, but replace navy with powder blue. I absolutely can't stand it. I hate city abbreviations on basketball jerseys and logos. They don't represent an airport for crying out. The city has a full name, use it. Spell it out. It's not PHX, it's PHOENIX. It's not ATL, it's ATLANTA. It's not NOLA, it's NEW ORLEANS. Save your abbreviations for scoreboards and airports - spell out your flippin' city name. I would love to see some NFL teams try out city wormarks on road jerseys. For example, the Broncos would have DENVER instead of BRONCOS on thier road jersey, it'd be pretty cool. I think the Kansas City Royals' grey road uniform is the best road in baseball, just ahead of the Dodgers. I never liked the Sonics' 2002 modernization. Everything about thier 1996 identity should have stayed. That was the best look in Sonics history. This current Mariners identity is the best in team history. I totally dig the retro Pistons' "tin man" logo. That couldve been a cool asset to thier identity if they kept the tin man somehow. I think the best Astros uniforms were the 1965 ones. I still am not used to seeing the Atlanta Hawks in Navy. The best Heat uniforms were thier inagurals. I'm a fan of the 90's Nuggets identity. I hate any alternate the Celtics have used. None if them really look that good. I've always thought the Knicks should roll out an Orange jersey. I consider the Mavericks' rebranding of 2002 the worst rebrand in NBA history. Thier previous identity was perfect, and needed no change. This current identity is a total mess. I hate the Padres' "McDonald's" uniforms except for the hat. I think their inagural set is the best in team history and should have stayed throughout franchise history. I think the 70's and 80's were the worst decades for uniforms in the MLB.
  7. Oh, and some others I love that I forgot to mention before: - Disney era periwinkle Angels - Disney era Mighty Ducks - The Phoenix Picassoyote - Diamondbacks purple and teal - Original Seahawks - Milwaukee Brewers current look - The Roger Maris era Athletics (late 50's) - Every St. Louis Browns identity (yes, THE St. Louis Browns) - Green, Blue, and Black DEVIL Rays
  8. I am a HUGE fan of the Rockets 1996-2003 "pajamas". I thought that uniform epitomized creativity at it's finest. I also loved the Pistons in teal, and other late 90's looks like the Nuggets, Sonics, Jazz, Suns, and the vibrant colored Spurs logo and court. Basically, I loved everything about the late 90's. Islanders' Gorton's Fisherman included.
  9. The one on the left actually isnt too bad, I really like it. The one on the right however, looks more like an elementary school logo. I really wouldnt have minded if the first one was used, with different colors of course.
  10. i've just discovered that the "New Again" album from Taking Back Sunday is my life's soundtrack....except for the fact that my knees aren't Catholic.

  11. Whoa...I'd COMPLETELY forgotten about that one there. (On another note: am I alone in really having LOVED that particular uniform for the Jazz???) No way, youre not alone at all. This is the set I grew up with. They first used it when I was five so basically this is the first Jazz uniform I remember for myself. I've always loved it and always will. I wish the fact that styles change over time wasnt true, because if I had my way the Jazz would wear this forever.
