  1. The STL era jersey numbers are considered a block font?
  2. So how many years until we see the Rams introduce a yellow version of these?
  3. So what's the deal with those white Rams helmets in the background?
  4. Robert Kraft recently became an investor in the league, so one could easily assume that whenever the PLL is ready to switch o the city based model that the Cannons will wind up back in Boston. Although I personally think we'll see them become the New England Cannons joining the Kraft sports family along with the Patriots and Revolution
  5. Depends week to week. Some cities draw better than others. Things like major youth lacrosse tournaments in the area have been said to effect attendance. In addition to that, they're still dealing with COVID restrictions in some states. The games are at separate times. This season with 8 teams they've decided to have 5 games per weekend. A Friday night game, 2 games on Saturday & 2 games on Sunday. The Sunday games feature the 2 teams from Friday night's game against different opponents. For example this past weekend, the Friday night game was the Whipsnakes vs Atlas. On Sunday (today) the Whipsnakes played Chrome, while Atlas played the Cannons The Premier Lacrosse League has a broadcasting deal with NBC Sports. Their games air on NBC and NBC Sports Network, and streamed on Peacock. Like someone else already mentioned, recently one of the league execs has publicly stated that the league will transition to a traditional city based model at some point. With Lacrosse being primarily popular in the northeast states and the Denver area, the PLL adopted a tour based model as a way to bring high level lacrosse to others parts of the country as well.
  6. New white/light uniforms for Chrome debuted today. SN: I don't know when PLL's uniform deal with Adidas ends, but it may be safe to assume Champion will become the official uniform provider at some point in the future. The current deal with Champion covers every other clothing and apparel aspect of the PLL outside of the game uniforms and practice jerseys (players have been wearing Champion shorts and undershirts in practice). Adidas used to be the all around provider for the league until this season. I know Champion is a fashion brand for the most part these days, but at one point in time they were one of the old big three of american sports uniform providers (Champion, Wilson and Russell Athletic) before the shoe companies got involved and took over. Outside of that fan controlled football league, does Champion still even make uniforms at any level? I know their old fitness apparel brand C9 was sold in Target stores for a long time, and now is exclusive to Amazon. So they clearly still make athletic apparel. But I literally haven't seen a Champion brand sports uniform in about 20 years.
  7. Division 2 Winston-Sale State had a similar front facing ram logo for years and (to my knowledge) never got in any legal trouble over it.
  8. If there's one thing I'd change about the PLL, I'd limit the teams to just one set of helmets. Helmet color choice can drastically improve or ruin how a team looks week to week. Like today. The Whipsnakes always look bad in their white helmets! If it were up to me, the PLL helmets would be... Archers: navy blue Atlas: Honestly, they're the only team in the league who's look isn't effected by the alternating helmets IMO. Could go with either the white or powder blue for them. Cannons: gray but change the facemask color to red Chaos: red Chrome: black Redwoods: white but change the facemask color to green Waterdogs: purple Whipsnakes: teal, but change the facemask dark green (the masks could already be dark green, but they always look black on TV. If that's the case adjust the shade of the mask to look closer to the green in the logo)
  9. That would be cool. Though I was personally fond of the football logo. Not sure if it was ever the Browns' official primary logo, but it's what I remember being used on TV for a while. The helmet as the primary logo needs to stop! Between the elf, the mastiff (dog) and the B football they've had some damn good secondary logos but refuse to ditch the helmet logo smh.
  10. Once again, I think most fans would've accepted Billy becoming second in command. Would have been real cool seeing him get "promoted" to Red Ranger while Rocky became the new Blue Ranger. Weird posts happen when there's not a lot of new stuff coming out lol
  11. Tommy becoming the focal point took me out of it too. Pre white ranger the show gave all the rangers moments to shine. After he became white ranger it was like the other rangers became his 5 sidekicks. Tommy being named the new leader of the rangers while Jason was still there, rubbed me the wrong way as a kid. Billy not rising up to second in command after Jason, Zack and Trini left also rubbed me the wrong way as a kid. He was the smartest ranger, and his fighting ability improved tremendously by that point. Made no season for Rocky and Adam to leapfrog him in the chain of command (ESPECIALLY ROCKY). I think most fans of the show at time would have accepted Billy as the #2 ranger. He earned it
  12. I always considered them to be 2 different characters. Tommy just.... changed after he became the white ranger in a way I could never explain.
  13. Cannons in navy blue helmets and white uniforms against the Waterdogs.
  14. That's pretty much just the head of the snake from the primary logo. Much bigger fan of the front facing snake head featured on a Whipsnakes t-shirt from the league's first season. That would be a much better helmet logo that the "whips" word mark IMO
  15. Looks like the Whipsnakes will have a set of teal/green uniforms this season.
  16. The smoke graphic at the bottoms of the Cannons jerseys would look better paired up with white shorts.
  17. Cannons vs Redwoods in PLL "Friday Night Lacrosse" season opener
  18. New snake skin practice jerseys for the Whipsnakes that match their helmets. Don't know if this means we'll see new corresponding game jerseys.
  19. Cannons' helmets at PLL camp. Since PLL teams have 2 sets of helmets, it's probably safe to assume they will have either red or blue helmets as well.
  20. I remember a time before the Madden video game franchise was licensed to use NFL team names, the Jets were called "New Jersey". Also the (at the time) LA Raiders were called "Oakland".
  21. Cannons uniforms were released earlier today.
  22. Based on a brief mention Paul Rabil has with his camera man on his most recent YouTube video, the Cannons PLL uniforms should be unveiled next Friday. PLL training camp begins next Friday (May 28), and the season starts the week after that on June 4. Based on the Cannons player t-shirt I posted earlier in this thread it may be safe to assume their jerseys will have simple block numbers, and one of the jerseys will be navy blue. I hope they carry over the silver helmets from the MLL days.
  23. I can hear Tom Brady grinding his teeth already
