    A guy on Twitter/X merged the home jerseys of WFT & Commanders

    Just go back to the look that started in 1979 and use the new helmet.   They won 3 Super Bowls in those uniforms.   Dan Snyder should have never let his wife get involved.

    Cherry blossoms and un-clippable wings. Coming soon.

     

    Sorry, but I dislike the Baltimore CC uniforms for the simple reason being that they're 5-9 (0-3 in '24) wearing them.  They're going to be the Friday night home uniform all season.   At least the "B" cap is an upgrade over the stupid O's cap with the upside down apostrophe.  Change the "B" from white to orange, just as it is on the road uniforms,  and burn the rest of the look.

    Are skateboarding, hip hop, punk, and fashion considered Tampa things? 🤣

    Better that than having the Ray using a walker. 😆

    Tampa Bay's population over 65 years old numbers 18.7 percent — just under one in five residents — making this metro area the oldest among 53 major metros in the United States. So note leading demographic experts Joel Kotkin and Wendell Cox in a recent Forbes analysis. That percentage has even grown from a few years ago when those over 65 here represented 18.2 percent.

    No other large metro area had a higher percentage of seniors then. None has a higher number now.

    Looks like the Ravens are adding a new helmet.

     

    Source: Ravens Adding New Alternate Helmet (uni-watch.com)

     

    Based on the color description, this helmet will most likely be for the CR uniform. I'm a little disappointed because I liked that the Ravens were able to stick with one helmet for all jerseys, but at least it will match the CR. I didn't like most of CR, but I did like the uniforms better if the base color matched the helmet shells (such as Steelers, Texans, Vikings).

    This is what I'vr said they should be using.  They telegraphed it a little using it on field caps last year.

    The only acceptable sponsor (aside from none, obviously) is Orioles-themed Mr. Boh

    Natty Boh hasn't been brewed in Baltimore since the mid-90s.     With 90% of their national sales in Baltimore, they don't have the resource to pay for such a deal.  Kevin Plank, from Maryland, does.  How about an Under Armour sleeve patch on a Nike jersey?😆

    The Orioles are still trying to fill one of their biggest sponsorship opportunities, its jersey patch sponsor. Close to half of the league’s team have jersey sponsors, which can come with hefty price tags. The New York Yankees currently have the largest jersey sponsor deal with Starr Insurance reportedly paying the team $25 million a year, according to Sportico. Brightman said the Orioles are currently talking to a number of brands about a jersey patch partnership.
    “We are actively engaged in discussions about our jersey patch opportunity. A lot of those companies are locally based, but we are talking with a couple of national brands too,” Brightman said. “The company that secures that opp will be part of the fabric of the uniform and the franchise and will reap the benefits of our brand.”

    An even more stupid name is "Phillies" which is a short name for "Philadelphias". In essence, the Southeast Pennsylvania ballclub is called the Philadelphia Philadelphias.

    Now do the LA Angels.

  8. Seeing the Bears logo on a helmet makes me wonder if the Ravens are also considering a change to the front facing mascot.   I've seen it used on their sideline gear for this season.   Yes, I know they won two Super Bowls with the current look, but I would prefer this.

  9. Orioles - We're the " first team to design the inside of the uniform"   Hope you don't get hurt patting yourself on the back for that "accomplishment."    I do like the contrasting orange lettering and white numerals on the back of the jersey.  What could have been..

  10. For years, Orioles fans wanted "Baltimore" on the road jersey, and the Angelos family finally relented in 2009.    Simple black and white design with grey trim and multicolors inside the collar and on the socks that no one will see.   Why are the block letters speckled?   As others have said, so much missed opportunity.

    The Orioles have worn the orange jerseys once this year. It's a Saturday only jersey. The only real outlier on the schedule is last Saturday, when they didn't wear them at home. Otherwise, it's been a fairly standard run (I think Boston asks that the Orioles not wear orange when the Red Sox wear red, and 04-15 was JRD).

     

    04-01-23: Orioles in black / Boston in red (R)

    04-08-23: Orioles in orange / New York in gray (H)

    04-15-13: Orioles in gray / Chicago in white (R) Jackie Robinson Day

    04-22-13: Orioles in white / Detroit in gray (H)

     

     

    On Fridays, they still wear the dumb O's cap with the upside down apostrophe.

    Picture posted by MASN on social media could be a potential look at the Orioles city connect set for a May unveiling

     

    ”Coming soon to a team store near you” was the caption

    Charm City is pretty much a given with Baltimore.  In the same post, they have this hoodie with roses, but that has to be for the ladies and not part of the city connect

    When everyone was making fun of "Major Tuddy" saying that they put him in an old R-words jersey, I didn't realize that he's wearing the full R-words uniform - look at the pants!  Why in the world would they do this, when some portion of the fan base is already complaining that they should have just kept those uniforms and slapped "Commanders" on them anyway?

    That "portion of the fanbase" are correct.  They should have kept that uniform over Snyder's BFBS idiocy.
