I’m a sucker for batting mascots so this is a win in my book

Just bring back the old white striped socks they wore with the last set

Absolutely not. Those are horrendous and should never be worn again

They should have at least had silver striping to make it somewhat cohesive

The only one that remotely makes any sense is New Orleans

Exactly, maybe double red stripes? Something to break up the monotony of blue down past the knee. As you noted now, what they’re SUPPOSED to wear

I’d rather they just mimic the sleeve and pants stripes honestly

Silver socks (metallic in general) wig me out a bit, maybe navy with a thick red band at the top?

That’s... just a reverse of what they wear (or at least are supposed to wear) now

So if these are legit, where do the Patriots rank now? Top tier uni IMO.

I’d like to see mono blue be reserved for a primetime game or two and do silver on the road for a game or two. Blue on silver and white on blue for the rest.

Eh, they still need another sock option. Silver preferably.

Do we still make separate draft/FA threads?  If not, Davonta Smith will be the first single-digit receiver in Eagles modern history.  Dislike.

Why?

Why not? During the preseason, numbers are essentially fluid until regular season Week 1. Before this upcoming season, we’ve seen players wear non-traditional numbers for their assigned positions. Notably RBs and WRs. As well as dual numbers for defensive and offensive players. Now with the number policy change, it doesn’t and shouldn’t really matter what number a player chooses.

At this point, the NFL should at least allow players to wear 0 in the preseason. Regardless of position.

Leonard Fournette is going to wear 7 this year

I am working on a creative side project for myself.

I want to place a relocation/expansion franchise in Orlando for MLB, NHL, and the NFL.

 

I would love some input/brainstorming form everyone here to get the ball rolling!

 

I’m thinking I’d like to go with an outer space themed team names (inspiration from UCF space game uniforms). Maybe Voyagers as one possibility. 
I like the “cape Canaveral blue” as a potential color (also seen on the UCF space game uniforms). 

ive also seen some concepts based around Juice/citrus with orange & green colors that have peaked my interest as well.

 

what are you thoughts on branding and colors for “new Orlando teams”?

thanks everybody!

Orlando MLB- Nines (9 planets(yes, Pluto too), 9 players on the field)

Never seen a can of that before but a local bar/restaurant has the stuff on tap and it’s some of the best root beer I’ve ever had.

Boy is it. Great stuff. However, I felt like crap for a solid 10 minutes after drinking it. Might’ve been all the sugar in it.

Bengals for some reason are still using their old uniforms for the draft this year. Also looks like the Browns are making the orange pants the primary ones now

WOOF. That's definitely a logo an intern designed.

I see EIGHT different fonts being used and unless my eyes are deceiving me, I’m not entirely sure the baseball is a perfect circle either

The Frederick Keys of the MLB Draft League, former affiliate of the Orioles, have unveiled an (absolutely piss-poor) Inaugural Season logo-

Bought a can of this on Thursday at a local soda store-

This is probably an unpopular opinion because it seems like most people want Washington to change up everything related to their team name and logo but I think they should bring back this logo (minus the feather) and uniform and change the name to Warriors. 

That would be a tough sell. It wouldn’t work as a primary logo either. A Roman or Greek warrior? I’m all for it, but the team would have to explicitly say and show that to be the case.

After taking a look at the various Washington name lists, here are my top 10 (from the list options)

1. Redhogs (by far)

2. Redtails

3. Belters (think it's unique and could work)

4. Aviators

5. Commanders (would want to play on a George Washington theme)

6. Renegades

7. Razorbacks (love the name but feel Arkansas owns it)

8. Rubies (similar to Belters, unique and intriguing)

9. Wild Hogs

10. Washington Football Team

Respectfully, I disagree.

1. Cop-Out

2. Cop-Out under the guise of honoring a different minority

3. The weakest of the proposed names. Sure it’s unique, but it doesn’t mean it’s good.

4. Great way of getting the point of 2 across without being in your face about it

5. If George Washington inspired, would probably see backlash.

6. Could potentially work in line with Aviators

7. Doesn’t make a whole lot of sense

8. See 3.

9. Mixture of 1 & 3.

10. Yes.

I'd be fine if the Cardinals changed to something similar to this redesign by Mark Omlor. The red helmet strays from tradition, but it looks great. It ties in the Arizona Flag, uses a traditional design with a slight modern flair, and the single color logo looks surprisingly good.

 

Three things are certain in NFL team uniform concept redesigns-

• Arizona Flag for the Cardinals

• Maryland Flag for the Ravens

• Jaguar spots for Jacksonville

None of those ever look good in any way

A player cannot change his current number for the 2021 season unless said player is willing to buyout their remaining jersey inventory.

However, number change requests can be made for the 2022 season without issue.

Nippon-Ham is the company that owns the team. The nickname is just the Fighters, and their identity has nothing to do with swine.

 

When WFT first announced the name change, Pigskins was the first one that I thought would work. Keeping the 'Skins' suffix seems like it would cause less potential problems than keeping 'Red' in the name.

It's better than just Hogs though

It sounds cool

Just because it sounds “cool” doesn’t mean it’s good... or necessary.
