Nelson Cruz is retiring as a Mariner

The brown facemask, for what it's worth, represented a new and (slightly) more successful era of Browns football. The white facemask just remind me of years of futility and quarterback hell. Count me in the minority, I guess. 

Okay, but it looks better.

White or grey facemasks that’s it. No brown and definitely no orange.

… I like the current finish on the helmet. The only good thing to come out of the 2015 debacle.

Trout just doesn’t move the needle for me. Even if he did wind up on a more high profile team like the Dodgers, Yankees, or Red Sox, what’s the difference? There’s no doubt he’s a great player, but what does he even do that legitimately garners attention? To me, he’s just a guy on a team.

Unpopular opinion, but he’s a slightly better Chris Davis.

Here's the difference - I don't get abstract "bad vibes" from Yount or any other legendary guys stuck on bad teams like I do with Trout. Mike Trout, for reasons I can't fully articulate, gives me very bad vibes. Like, everything people said about how much they hated Tom Brady applies to Mike Trout for me, even though Mike Trout has nowhere near as much to show for his career.

 

Mike Trout is one of the best ever, but can it really be said that he changed the game or shaped its history in any meaningful way since 2011? Other than increasing demands for Arte Moreno to sell the team?

I like Trout as much as the next guy, but not a fan of the times he’s been named an All Star in seasons he’s played less than half the games. Specifically 2021’s grand total of 36 games.

Like look in at the Rockies 2024 season

Pinstripes should only be on baseball pants

I know I will get blasted for this.  But the niners uni's would be perfect if they either went red or gold facemask.  Cannot stand that gray mask.  And for the love of god they should never wear white pants.  

I wonder what they’d look like with a white facemask  

(only half joking)

Jacksonville gonna be like:

 

"what's old is new, the gradients are back" 

“but this time… in… TEEEAAALLLLL!!!”

Some pretty good stuff! I dig it

Jacksonville will likely be either a full teal helmet or a teal flake helmet 

Two changes that need to happen-

Could mean its just a small change such as facemask color

Here’s to hoping for blue

What's really bizarre to me is that LA Rams are still the only one to have that weird little patch on their jersey. Every other team doesn't have it, makes me wonder if that's something that will come off at some point.

 

“The rather inconspicuous contrast stitching on our distinct ‘5280 DNVR’ patch is a homage to the majestic mountain range surrounding our beautiful city, bringing our community together as one.”

I can’t wait for the chest patch to be

 5280

DNVR

Don't forget Elway Silver.

I almost wish they deepened the blue to borderline purple and called it Mountain Majesty Blue

I cant wait for the official Broncos colors to get renamed to some goofy :censored: like-

• Mountain Sunrise Orange

• Rocky Range Blue

• Snow Cap White

Swap the number/outline color. Add white pants. Have white jerseys and black pants, maybe a black alt and these would be top 5 in the league 

Eh, I like the black numbers on the red jersey.

Pair it with updated versions of these jerseys

Hopefully they saw how bad the mismatch was when the Broncos wore their white jerseys and navy pants so they don't make that mistake.

 

One thing I would like to see the Falcons wear this year is a white version of their throwbacks for a test run like what the Jets did. The Falcons are eligible for new uniforms next year and the throwbacks would be a good start point.

Not using these as a base was a huge mistake

Especially for someone with your taste I see your point. But, this image is the one that is seared into my brain. This was the first image of the uniform anyone saw, and it was jarring. 

 

I distinctly remember red pants and socks being unveiled that never saw the field
