    That’s the same guy? They look nothing alike, I honestly thought that was a bald white guy on bowman’s car.

    I mean, the show is from 2000 and comic book characters routinely go through changes almost every year.

    Am I the only one who doesn’t know who “Static” is? Looking at the cartoon he looks like a mix between lex Luther and dr. Doom.

    Introduced in the early 90s, he became popular due to the success of popular early 2000s animated series, Static Shock.

    Got it.  Seems like a lot of effort, especially if typing it on mobile.  Surely there's some emoji or something that could accomplish the same... but then again, I'm old(ish).

    I’ve done it quite a lot. Usually, it’s just easier to drop this meme to get the point across-

    The Oilers' derrick (and similarly, the Roughnecks XFL logo) is nearly the exact same shape as Pat Patriot (Pat might even be more horizontal), and nearly everyone thought it was fantastic and want it too return, too. In this photo, Pat covers far more of the side of the helmet, which is actually a good thing.

    Now that the TV numbers aren't required, that point is moot. Any team that puts them on the sleeves is choosing to do so. When the numbers are already on the jersey two other times.

     

     

    This point makes no sense. I mean, the Saints have a gold helmet. Does that make it redundant for them to have gold anywhere on their jerseys? What about pants stripes matching the helmet stripes? Why do you need the same striping pattern in two places? It's their logo, it should be prominent. And even if you want to say it being redundant is a valid reason not to use it on the sleeves, numbers are even more redundant. At least you have to travel to a different piece of equipment to find the logo. The numbers already exist multiple other, massive places on the jerseys. They also just aren't a good shape for the space.

     

    I think the argument works somewhat if you're advocating for sleeve stripes. They aren't redundant and look good most of the time. But numbers on the sleeve add no team branding, look bad, and are even more redundant than the logo.

    If I’m reading all this correctly, you seem to want blank uniforms. Solid colors and no differentiating designs.

     

    Either you’re really grasping at straws or you’re in the midst of an existential crisis.

      I don't get how it's redudant to have the logo on the sleeves just because it's on the helmet. It doesn't appear anywhere else on the jersey. The numbers are already in two other places on the jersey alone. Someone who's a number like 88 would have 8 8's on their jersey. That's not redundant?

    Other than numbers being required on a jersey.

     

    So no, having eight 8s on a jersey isn’t redundant. They’ve relaxed some rules where four of the 8s aren’t required. Still not redundant with what’s left, because it’s required. Logos on jerseys are most definitely not required. So yes, it is redundant for logos to appear on both helmet and jersey.

  7. Not sure how true this is, but supposedly the Jazz wanted to roll with a black and white color scheme, but Nike said no due to the Nets and Spurs identities. Nike then forced the Jazz to add a third color. Which is why there is yellow. They then added the throwback jersey and will petition Nike for a new uniform set by the 2023-24 season.

  8. Dan Snyder is out here court-dodging a federal case.
     

    He worked with the NFL, to conduct a “shadow probe” in a effort to hide and bury findings from an internal investigation.

    This scum of a human should be exiled from ever owning a professional sports team, let alone a business of any magnitude.
