That would make a great full-time cap/logo for the Astros.

Still wish they were the Spiders. "Guardians" is just so lame and I feel like they only picked it because it has "-ians" at the end, not because it was the best name.

The MLB Network has a new ticker today that appears to be inspired by ESPN's current BottomLine. Weirdly, none of the other graphics have changed. The NHL Network (which is run out of the same facilities in Secaucus) still has the previous ticker design.

If you had an intro course to the CCLSC, it would mostly be lore and not actual uniform/design stuff.
I dunno, the part about the Coyotes skating on the frozen blood of the non-believers might scare potential new members off.

I got very angry until I realized it's April Fools Day. The sad reality is that we have reached a point where pretty much any team adding an all-black alternate is 100% believable.
That buffalo wing inspired logo is a work of mad genius.

That Oregon court idea is impressive. Same goes for a lot of the stuff you're doing with different wood patterns.
For UCF, I think the space design would look better in gold instead of blue.

How the hell do you not spend a penny in free agency?
That tends to happen when you're deliberately sabotaging your team to depress fan support and justify relocating elsewhere.

Jameis didn't upgrade all that much. The Saints' current uniforms are almost as messy as the Cowboys' and look lifeless despite having so much potential for a great look. Their insistence on wearing black pants all the time is the cherry on top of the :censored: sundae. If the Bucs had a legible number font instead of the alarm clock numbers, he honestly would have downgraded.

The actual sweater is pretty nice, although it would look better with blue or white numbers instead of black.
The "inside-out" gimmick is cringe beyond belief.

The AFC West skyrocketed from one of the worst to one of the best divisions in the league. They might be the first to send all 4 (remember when we thought the NFC West would until Russ got hurt?)
Don't worry, Deano and his sons will screw it up.

Interesting article about some rejected proposals for what eventually became the New York Rangers' "Lady Liberty" third jerseys. These designs were shown on the MSG Network pregame show before the debut of the final product in 1997.
My personal favorite of the bunch:

This is a proposed (and rejected) Mariners alternate vest from 1997, apparently:

Sounds more like you should be directing your anger at the media
Both the narcissist who can't walk away and the media who can't stop slobbering over all things Brady-related are to blame.
I never liked Peyton either, but at least he left with a shred of dignity. Sure, he could barely throw a football anymore and was dragged kicking and screaming to that Super Bowl by his defense, but when he retired, that was it. No faux-retirement to derail the Super Bowl hype, no unretirement to divert attention away from March Madness. It just goes to show who's secure with themselves and what they've accomplished over the years and who's deeply insecure.
When Brady does finally have to retire, I could easily see him becoming one of those salty "back in my day" guys (the type you often see in the NBA) who spends his life trashing the current generation of players to prop up himself and his era. It's obvious he can't handle anyone else getting attention.

Brady is an attention whore and a douche of the highest order. Gooooo awayyyyyy.

The Clippers have a better record than both the Lakers and Nets right now despite Kawhi being out all season, PG being out for most of the season, and Norm only playing three games before being sidelined by an injury. Not only that, but they're two games over .500 with all that money on the bench, which is crazy. Ty Lue might be the best coach in basketball.

I think they've already tried that with the uniforms they're wearing now.
Piping and panels all over the place wasn't ridiculous or off the wall in 2005, it was literally following the dominant trend at the time.

Ohio State's new field is a big upgrade. I like the subtle incorporation of their stripe.
Bulldog Bold never made much sense for UGA's brand in the first place. I never understood why they didn't just adopt their basketball team's old custom font that matched their logo across the board.

I'm glad the Jazz are not only keeping the J-note/number combo, but also promoting it to primary status. It's clever, and makes me appreciate a logo more that was never one of my favorites. Of course, I'm also the only person on the planet who liked the Clippers' old red jerseys with the LAC logo and number side-by-side, so there's that.
That light powder blue color hinted at in the All-Star Game logo makes their rebrand a little more interesting than it would be with just black and yellow. I'm intrigued to see how it's incorporated in the uniforms.

-Clippers: They just love forcing black don't they?
I'd be more upset if I actually cared about the normal red/white/blue color scheme that much. My hope is that they're slowly phasing out RWB so then they can bring back the San Diego color scheme for the new arena.

I like the new scorebug. Kind of has an early-2000s vibe to it.

The Rams finally have a Super Bowl without St. Louis stink on it!
At least the St. Louis Rams weren't dragged kicking and screaming to their ring by Tagliabue. They also had more than ten fans to appreciate it.

Congratulations to Roger Goodell for finally forcing a Super Bowl title to LA. He wasn't even subtle about it.

The Steelers at least have history with it. Boise State’s original helmets were cool but the trend has been overblown since then.The funniest thing was when Oregon State did a Steelers helmet (late 90s, I think) with a regular sized Beaver logo on one side and nothing on the other. No explanation whatsoever.
The reason why it worked for Boise State is because the contours and shape of their logo made it perfect for the "Michigan Panthers" treatment. Even then, the helmets would improve by leaps and bounds by having the logo on both sides instead of just one.
Another school that made it work, IMO, was Arizona State. The pitchfork already looked good on a helmet anyway, so there were no real downsides to making it bigger.
The actual problem, like with all uniform trends, was all the other schools hopping on the oversized logo fad without giving the slightest bit of thought to how it would work with their brand.

One of the best parts of the Clippers the last couple seasons is not having to listen to Glenn's dopey excuses/deflections after he chokes again. This just gave me a PTSD flashback.
"It's a make or miss league" was another one of his favorites. I feel bad for Sixers fans that The Process culminated in that guy coaching your team.
