    I'm sorry but absolutely none of the Maryland flag uniforms have been good, IMO

    What I really respond to with the Maryland flag uniform is how bold and unique it is. In a cookie cutter world of football uniforms, they stand out. That being said, I love tradition and think the Penn State, Alabama, USC, LSU looks are great, but if you don't have the tradition, don't dumb down your look to try and imitate them, make your own tradition. This does it.

  2. This is a great uniform but just needs a slight refinement... With so much going on the outlined numerals unnecessarily clutter. Look at the flag, no outlines, keep that in mind and use sold black or solid red numerals and it all comes together nicely.

    I’ve long thought that a Green/Orange color scheme fits a team named the Dragons almost perfectly.

     

    Swap out the Navy for green at home (and maybe use White or orange pants at home), and Seattle would be set.

    The green/orange is a great combo... for a team in Florida, not Seattle.

     

    You have to look long and hard to find the color orange here but every shade of green and blue seems to exist. I get that you need fire for dragons but that just makes me go back to the thought that the mascot and color doesn't fit the region at all. Bad choice. 

     

    In addition, the dragon itself it too cartoonish. A mono-color treatment more like the Guardians did would have helped it look more like a logo/brand.  

  4. I'm concerned with the visuals for the Sounders, I believe March 21/22.

     

    Sounders play a 7pm game on the 21st and then the Dragons play a 12 noon game on the 22nd. If it's dumping rain, they may not be able to repaint the field for the football game. In that case, they may have both football and soccer lines painted prior to the weekend just in case. I hope I'm wrong. 

  5. Anyone have a good Nike-style poster template resource? I'm going to be doing the senior posters for my son's high school football team next year. The typical fog, lights, etc. Something I can buy and make life easier and make the posters look great. Thanks for any resources.

    This is a better look than the Chargers. Change my mind.

    Could they actually be the Monarchs and use the branding? I believe the WLAF was owned by the NFL weren't they? That would be pretty cool. 

     

    It would be interesting though to see what fans in London would want. Would they want their own team name or would they feel having an existing NFL team name was better? Like what if the Wolverhampton Wanderers moved to New York but stayed in the EPL. Would New York fans want to be the New York Wanderers and keep the existing brand, etc. or would they want to rename the team?

    Man, the logistics alone of having a team in London is an absolute nightmare. Go back to San Diego.

    I agree but I heard the best solution I've heard on the radio today (for a Jacksonville/London combo though). Play 4 consecutive games in London, become "London's" team, and have a HUGE home field advantage since you'd be acclimated for at least games 2 through 4.

    XFL Draft is next week.  I wonder if they will reveal helmets or full uniforms at that event.  At least helmets would be a good touch. 

    Would make them look more legit and I'd think it's vital to have jerseys available as the Christmas shopping season heats up in November.

    Eh. I'm not sure how I feel about it? The double green and template definitely gives off an Arena Football vibe. I'm not sure if that's bad or good ... considering the talent level will be on par.

    I'd say it's bad. The less gimmicky the better. Looking like a minor league organization (while technically true) isn't a direction I'd recommend. Look professional, stable, solid... like you are going to last longer than every other outdoor league.

    Different face and flames. You can say Seattle's logo is inspired by UAB but it's not a copy. 

     

    I think you'd need to have a full body dragon to do a proper S. 

    Right. I don't like overly forced letter/mascot forms (Falcons, WSU) so was thinking of how they could've had a subtle implied S form. Fine how it is but could've been that much better as a subtle S.

    We have a separate concepts section for a reason. 

    I'm confused. So you are saying it's poor form to say in the LA Rams new uniform thread "I think the Rams throwbacks would look better without the white stripe on the pants" and then mock it up so it's easy to see? Seems odd to censor this type of discussion.

    Posting concepts to a news thread is generally frowned upon, though - there’s a whole “Concepts” board where you can do that.  

    Maybe we're talking about different things here but I often post "concepts" when referencing why I think something doesn't work or what changes could be made to make an existing look better. Seems a more effective way of illustrating my thoughts than simply saying "I think this would look better without the x.y. or z"

    The NFL should have retired the “Browns” name, much like they did with the “Oilers” sobriquet. The ‘99 expansion team could certainly dress like the Browns of old (right down to the logoless orange helmet), but dropping the name saves us a historiographic headache.

    NFL should have never had the Indianapolis Colts, Tennessee Titans, and Baltimore Ravens.
