  1. 3 minutes ago, dont care said:

    There helmet logo has never changed. It's always been a ram horn on the helmet only the colors have changed.

     

    From 1983 to 1994 their primary logo was just their helmet. 

     

    They also had an awful Gateway Arch inspired logo from 1995 to 1999

  2. I do not like these uniforms at all:

    They have that awful modern side striping and toilet bowl collars as well. The uniforms that the Clippers have worn in LA range from boring to bad. And keep in mind that the team was horrible until recently, so it's not like their play made the uniforms memorable.

     

    The Clippers new uniforms are essentially the same exact thing as the last set but with different wordmarks. Given that the last wordmarks weren't anything special, I don't think the new set is better or worse.

     

     

     

  3. I don't think the Clippers new logo and uniforms are nearly as bad as people make them out to be. They aren't good, but it's not like the previous set was any better.

     

    TBH, I don't think the LA Clippers have ever had a good a logo or uniforms. The only good look in team history is a copy of the Kings.

  4. "Miami Marlins" is much better: it's alliterative

    This would be true if they were the Manchester Marlins. In Miami, the vowels are much more dominant than the M, so the alliteration loses its effect.

    Florida Marlins just sounds better, any way you pronounce it. Flor-da Marlins, Flor-ih-da Marlins, Flar-da Marlins, Flar-ih-da Marlins.

  5. And they changed it soon after there was another team in Florida.

    Also, there are 7 states in the US that have and will have more than one pro team per league in each state:

    California

    Florida

    Missouri

    New York

    Ohio

    Pennsylvania

    Texas

    Of the teams in those states (not counting New York), only two currently use the state names (Texas Rangers and Florida Panthers), and those two teams are named after something. To me, California Kings sounds just as good as the LA Kings (and better than the unabbreviated Los Angeles Kings). Adding in teams that recently changed their names, you have the California Angels, California (Golden) Seals, and Florida Marlins. All of which sound good.

    To me, California Kings sounds like a mattress store. Also, you forgot Illinois, unless you're not including multiple teams from the same city.

    True. But I don't think we have to worry about seeing the Illinois Cubs or Illinois White Sox

  6. What about Florida Marlins, which sounds a lot better than Miami Marlins IMO

    How?

    Florida Marlins rolls off the tongue.

    They were created when there were no other MLB teams in Florida

    And they changed it soon after there was another team in Florida.

  7. Was watching the 86 Stanley cup finals and I realized that I just don't like the Flames origional uniforms. Red and yellow is a beautiful color scheme by itself and it works for teams like Chiefs but it just looks wierd with the Flames. I defenatly think they need a little bit of black.

    I prefer the shade of red they used in their 2nd uniform set + the addition of black

  8. I like that the Sixers are trying to make PHILA their thing

    Sixers is always they if they want to switch colors, but PHILA is cool and unique. I also don't get the people who want them to put Philadelphia. Just like Los Angeles and Oklahoma City, Philadelhpia is too long to put on a jersey.
