  1. You likely won’t find a font file for it since the numbers’ shapes changed depending on whether they were the only, first or second number.
  2. It's not precise but it's close. It's not just you.
  3. Why do they keep going back to Blasty? It's not a good logo!
  4. It's probably a money thing. The league makes money off of sponsor and manufacturer logos. Why waste space on something that doesn't earn them a cut?
  5. Do you mean alleged sexual predator Dave Portnoy?
  6. The Senators should've adopted the 2000s black alternate as their primary. Yours is a good midpoint but I'd make the gold stripe wider.
  7. That is definitely an improvement over the original Fisherman jersey. While I would've dispensed with the wave striping myself, I think at least going with block name and numbers goes a long way towards making the jersey passable. I've always maintained that the Fisherman logo was never the problem. The jersey was always the problem and on a more conservative jersey, the logo looks fine.
  8. I may be a traditionalist but historical precedent doesn't always make something look good. For example, it'll never happen (especially with Nike throwing white at home out of the window) but the Lakers have almost always looked better in their Sunday whites than they do in gold. They should've switched to white at home full-time years ago.
  9. I wish I could like this more than once. The NCAA really needs to reign that crap in. No more oversized helmets logos and no more asymmetrical helmets with different logos on each side or a logo on one side and a number on the other. It looks dumb in college and it looks dumb when the Steelers do it.
  10. Gonna have to disagree with you there. The Oilers' current uniforms are the best they've ever looked and putting on the dynasty-era uniforms isn't going to make Wayne Gretzky want to suit up to save the sad sack of a franchise.
  11. That's why I said they barely qualify as BFBS. For them, it was a wholesale change but it was still entirely unnecessary.
  12. I love that sleeve stripe. That is really nice! However, with the wingtips positioned where they are, it almost looks like the jet would be flying in the opposite direction from the way the player is moving, but if you switch them and put them on the back of the sleeves, they wouldn't be visible. Hmm...
  13. Switch the shoulder patch out for the shoulder patch from the 2013-16 alternates and you have perfection. I would say that the Ducks barely qualify as BFBS considering that they ditched one of the best looks in the history of the league to satisfy Brian Burke's West Point fetish.
  14. WAAAAAY better than what they’re wearing now.
  15. THANK YOU. Finally, someone else says it. The Flames' colors bleed into each other too much without black trim. The Flames have never topped how they looked in the 2006-07 season when they got rid of the horse snot alternate.
  16. Have at it, folks. Let's talk football.
  17. They could've kicked the kickoff after their last TD short so it wasn't a touchback and burned time off the clock. They could've stopped the Chiefs from driving into field goal range in ten seconds.
  18. The last time a team broke a long notable championship drought (the Cubs winning the World Series in 2016) a lot of bad :censored: in the world (that I won't elaborate on lest this turn political) happened. Please, for the love of God, don't make it worse. That being said, :censored: that racist :censored:. The only reason why the Chiefs haven't suffered the same fate as the team now known as the WFT is because their logo isn't a caricature or a person. I give it less than ten years before that house of cards eventually collapses and they start reevaluating their identity.
  19. You're going to have to wait a while before it feels OK to be a Hawks fan.
  20. The Swinging Friar would like a word.
  21. "Soon it was commonplace for entire teams to change cities in search of greater profits. The Minneapolis Lakers moved to Los Angeles where there are no lakes. The Oilers moved to Tennessee where there is no oil. The Jazz moved to Salt Lake City where they don't allow music."
  22. With the exception of that dumb shoulder patch and the awful orange alternate, 1998-2007 is the best the Islanders have ever looked. The pre-Edge era is the best a lot of (but not all) teams have ever looked. The Islanders and Flames especially never should've changed from those looks. They've gotten worse since then.
