  1. "You insulted my team's jerseys? yeah, yeah? WELL YOUR TEAM SUX!!!111111one"
  2. These are okay, but nowhere near as good as people claim them to be.
  3. Replica baseball jerseys are the absolute worst. Sometimes the number's don't have outlines and a lot of them leave out the numbers on the front of the jersey (if the team has that). Teams like the Red Sox and Yankees who don't have names on the home (and for Yankees, road jerseys) have them on the replicas which is annoying.Not to mention no batter logo or sleeve patches. And sub-rec league materials.
  4. Will they be on the retail sweaters? If so, what do they pay me for wearing an advertisement for GEICO, Honda, or Advil? Lump sum, or do I bill them every time I wear it outside? Oh, you mean I don't get paid to advertise multinational corporations? In fact, I'll probably pay more than I would have for old inventory? Well, then.AHL and CFL retail jerseys come without ads, so I'd fully expect the NHL to do the same.
  5. Given how short his stint was, that's gotta be an all-timer. Though I was hoping the Brodeur-to-Columbus rumours were true so we could get that interesting pair-up.
  6. The Motherboard has these two listed as the Leafs' 1938-63 and 1963-67 logos, respectively: While the latter is correct, the 1938 logo is wrong. On these graphics, it's just the 1963 logo without an outline. However, it was a whole different design. It's made worse by the fact that the team sells licensed apparel with the incorrect logo on it. Clearly different logos.
  7. The fonts on their old ones were a little odd, too, but overall they were a hundred times better:
  8. @2001mark: Here's the Gillick banner, complete with Alomar's original banner (they hung both on opening day, and then replaced Robbie's when they retired his number a few months later).
  9. Is there a reason for the font being different? Also, that gold outline is just brutal.
  10. Anyone know if that's the same font the Tiger-Cats used up until a few years ago?
  11. I googled this to be sure you were saying what I think you were saying. That his number (and not name) was on his retired number banner...and it is. I actually like that. However, that banner is kinda ugly...fitting in the HOF and team logos makes it far too big to just have the number. It almost needs a "watermark" photo or something. I wish they'd just use the "12" from his ceremony. I actually like just seeing the retired number and no name. For one, I just think the below looks really good...They have similar numbers at Fenway and I suspect some other places. Second, it's kinda a conversation starter. "Hey dad, what are those numbers for?" "Why does the 42 look different?" "Who wore number 29?" And in this day and age, it's pretty easy to look up. The team has a "Level of Ecxellence" for honoured players along the 500 Level ring. I couldn't fing a pic of Alomar's, but while the other players have just their names, he has both his name and number.
  12. I always eagerly check "Forum Announcements" when I see new content, hoping to read about a new banning or suspension, only to be disappointed when it turns out to be somebody asking how to post a picture.
  13. ^I wouldn't call that Bkackhawks uniform BFBS. Blacks been a part of their colour scheme since day one, and they were all-black for a time. Even today, their roads are predominantly black. Anyways, I utterly despise the fact that the Detroit Tigers have different colour schemes at home and road. Most people give them a pass because of history, and while I, too, sometimes let history excuse design flaws, this one is so awful that nothing can really justify it. It's horribly inconsistent, and while both designs look good in a vacuum, they need to go with one unified look. People give the Indians hell for their unwillingness to commit to either Wahoo/cursive or block scripts/caps - how is this any different?
  14. They won because they had good players. Yes. And so they honour those players by retiring their numbers. I don't see the problem. (And keep in mind that there is no team in all of sports I hate more than the Montréal Canadiens.)
  15. No. Player Position Career Date of honour 1 [url="/wik15 jersey numbers for 18 players over 104 seasons or 54 seasons since the first in 1960. Not quite every year Maybe, but 12 of those were retired after the 93´ win, that is 12 in 20 years, if they continue the trend, my point will still be valid.- Name why any one of those players doesn't deserve his number retired any why.
  16. I'll agree that their current look is (somewhat of) a mess, but that's due to poor execution. The gold sock cuffs and pants stripe (two features that weren't there initially) make it too gold-heavy and imbalanced.This... ...with either just a solid navy yoke or no yoke/piping at all woul be a top-10 look IMO.
  17. The "Phx" is pretty stupid, but I absolutely love the Orange and grey.
  18. The only thing that could improve those jerseys would be a lighter and a bucket of gasoline.
  19. From the past few weeks: http://storage.edmontonsun.com/v1/dynamic_resize/sws_path/suns-prod-images/1297608995761_ORIGINAL.jpg?quality=80&size=650x All are particularly bad.
  20. And he was part of their Cup-winning teams in '91 and '92. I actually didn't know that:
