  1. "DB" is Darwin Barney, one of the investors for the potential team. My initial reaction is why not just keep the name going? But thinking about it a little more, would anybody be upset if they leave the Athletics brand with Oakland for a potential team in the future? How many cities does the name need to bounce around to? If any of the A's cities deserve to keep the identity, it's Oakland.
  2. So the target year for this is 2023? Coincidentally, a couple weeks back, Russell Wilson seemed confident that Portland could have a team as early as 2023. He probably already received word of this plan with the Rays. The time frame and whether they get an expansion team or existing team depended on the stadium situations in Tampa Bay and Oakland.
  3. Agreed. The Ravens-like helmet stripes didn't fit, and that blocky shoulder yoke just looked stale and pointless.
  4. Idk. The new look isn't perfect and could use some tweaking, but I think it's a stronger look overall. The new helmet especially is a much better fit. The white one was always weak looking to me. Just my unpopular opinion.
  5. It would be a great look with navy socks. The same color socks and shoes is what makes it tacky, and that's for all these color rush uniforms.
  6. Yeah the silver just comes off tacky and unnecessary. Even a bit of charcoal like the Eagles instead would fit better than all that silver.
  7. I think the Panthers could pull off blue helmets. That black panther logo would look great on it.
  8. The white cap is unique, and works for this look. I wouldn't recommend it for every team, but it looks good and stands out here. Kinda like the O's home cap. I would like to see it, at least as an alt.
  9. Yep. Especially with all the red uniforms in MLB today, their current set is just too basic looking. Nothing about it stands out. This is a unique, classic look for them.
  10. Reds should go back to this look, head to toe. At least as a weekly throwback.
  11. I don't know how important the detail of the statue is in that particular design, but they probably could at least widen the point a bit and make the stand bigger.
  12. Maybe adding more teal to it would help, but to me it just looked flat out incomplete or blank.
  13. The black alt was the jersey that needed more teal. The silver letters on black jersey was just an odd look. You can barely see the teal outline. This would've been a lot better:
  14. They should've at least switched. Chicago Hitmen fits, if not even better, and New York Enforcers has a better ring to it.
  15. I don't understand this comparison. Kelly green and black looks great together, and it would be unique combo that ties into the Jets' history. It's not just black for black sake.
  16. Yeah they need an update. They went back to a mediocre look that they just happened to win a SB in decades prior, and it was a failure. They should try an update with kelly green and black. Maybe with a green or black helmet.
  17. Oh I definitely agree. It was a great look that no other team had (other than the ate-up Brewers.) I noticed even the most vocal advocates for brown were quieter than normal that year. Even though they'll probably still rather have brown, you couldn't be upset with that look. It's really baffling how they wore it, and then ditched it after a year when nobody was complaining. Even if that was the initial plan, why not just keep it?
  18. The Padres also use a brighter shade of navy than the Yankees and Tigers, and their letters are completely different. You'll never mistake them for any other team. Nice, distinct look.
  19. The Padres' uniforms have grown on me. My first reaction to them was "boring blue and white", but they're actually pretty clean and distinct. Pinstripes might have been nice, but I like the way the white pops on these too.
  20. It's basically a color version of their regular jersey, which is the best kind of color alt.
  21. I wouldn't mind if the Dodgers adopted blue alts for the regular season.
  22. Yeah, I guess technically it's not even BFBS since black is a part of their scheme. Either way it's a nice, unique look. You would think white helmets with black jerseys will look odd. With white pants completing the look, and splashes of red throughout, they're really pulling it off.
  23. I think the Panthers might look better with dark gray instead of silver. This look from the Cardinals ain't half bad the more I see it:
  24. White jersey/burgandy pants is good, which they've already switched back to since last season. Burgandy jersey/gold pants still looks good. The gold contrasts nicely with the burgandy. Gorgeous, unique look. White pants is too plain. The Chiefs have that boring look, but they're not going to wear yellow pants with that bright red.
