  1. But the NBA tries to. They decided to give all pre-2001/02 records to the Bobcats/Hornets franchise that started play in 2003. And pretend the Hornets/Pelicans were a team that started play in 2001. The NHL did it right. The Jets may be back in Winnipeg, but in name only but are still the franchise that started in Atlanta as the Thrashers in 1999. And the old Jets lineage and history is in Arizona with the Coyotes.
  2. I wouldn't be upset is they dropped the silver and went with this helmet full time. It's gorgeous. (obligatory complaint about the black socks ruining this. It would look so good with blue)
  3. I didn't read through this thread yet but how many times have they been called practice jerseys? Talk about minimalist, my god. The summer league jerseys had more character. At least add some trim around the shoulders or something.
  4. With it being a night game I'm sure they'll be in white against the Eagles. Wouldn't be surprised to see the Eagles in all black for that one either. Also unless Buffalo and Chicago go throwbacks, those are probably white games as well.
  5. the eMb is iconic but I always loved the roundel too.
  6. Padres city jerseys move into that top tier with CWS, MIA and MIL.
  7. This might be my favorite city connect jersey (not a huge fan of the hat logo though) right there with the Marlins. White Sox probably 3rd and the rest ranging from garbage to meh.
  8. I think if they had just flattened this and removed the 3D shadowing thing they would have been fine.
  9. I don't think it matters. Winning the Western Conference still counts for anniversary throwbacks I believe.
  10. Technically 2023 is the 25th anniversary of the 98 Finals appearance so it's allowed. When they wore it two years again I think the loophole was 25 seasons since the 97 finals.
  11. Talk about damage control that unveiling was like: "PURPLE IS HERE TO STAY WE'RE GOING TO HAVE A PURPLE JERSEY EVERY YEAR! (city or throwback).......and then here's our primary jerseys over here that nobody really cares about."
  12. I can't believe these are $50. I wouldn't pay $50 for even a nice hate let alone that. I have enough trouble wanting to pay the almost $40 the MLB authentics are these days.
  13. So instead of adding the old gold helmet to match the throwbacks the Saints decide on an unnecessary black abomination with the Seahawks stripe. Great. And that Eagles word mark is so boring and corporate like most new word marks are these days. Fans are ripping it.
  14. Technically don't the Vikings have black and 'fleshtone' in their color slick because of the logo. Same I guess would go for the Steelers with the blue and red diamonds in the logo. I'm assuming those might be noted for logo use only. (Although the Vikings use a black facemask now too)
  15. So we're still doing this unnecessary black thing huh?
  16. They're whimsically fine for a summer concert, bbq or fireworks show as fashion hats but have no business seeing a MLB field. I miss when they just put a flag patch on the side or the flag within each teams logo on their regular hats.
  17. So stupid that black is only part of their color scheme because of those stupid sleeved jersey that should have never existed. Also if you're going to keep black, darkening up your colors probably isn't such a good idea. The shield still sucks too. As sick as I am of circle logos, would have preferred that to keeping the shield. And why remove the sword from your identity complete? I like the mishmashing of eras wordmark though.
  18. The Thunder's uniforms are perfectly fine and changing them might be a careful what you wish for scenario, but how on earth almost 15 years later are they still using that generic placeholder logo? Gimme the Browns helmet 10 out of 10 times over that thing.
  19. I LOVE the vice color way. Do I think the Heat should change to it full time? Probably not. Would I mind it? Also probably not. I'm not even a Heat fan and bought some vice merch. I think I love the idea of keeping the the current identity but cycling through the 4 previous vice jerseys (black, white, baby blue and pink. Definitely no trix or ransom notes. And honestly you might not even need the white either). But I don't think the NBA/Nike would go for that.
  20. While I'm all for this, this will be the second time they've done this now lol. You know they'll eventually have to have a black third though, because black sells, and in that case I'd bring back the anniversary hybrid from a few years ago.
  21. I loved this Cleveland set. Even the Navy jersey. What they wear now is somewhere between meh and garbage and the forcing of black into because of a championship won in tshirts that should have never existed makes it worse. The stripes on the shoulder and shorts trim alone give it more life than those Jazz practice jerseys. Also I think wine and gold lends itself to stand out on it's own more than generic black or retina burning yellow does. When it comes to the Jazz I'll always been one for the Purple/Sky mountain set but I thought the current scheme worked too, even if I preferred purple to navy. But they ruined those when they decided to cut the side panels in half diagonally for some reason.
  22. I have a Jaguars helmet with the unused logo.
