Old School Fool

Just played the Xbox One version and this doesn't seem to be the case.

I have a good replica of a Los Angeles Raiders hat like this that I bought on Amazon once. It was an official NFL product too. They don't do it like that anymore for some reason, I'm assuming whoever owns the Sports Specialties stuff told them to not get so close to the design. The one Gruden wears now isn't even close to the classic font, it's more of an inspiration.

The Raptors and Knicks played each other on November 1, 1996 and wore throwback uniforms for the 50th Anniversary of the NBA. They will play each other again on November 1st in 2021 for the 75th Anniversary. I can't help but think that was intentional.

There are none.

So let me get this straight, the Pistons changed from the Bad Boys uniforms in 1996 then proceeded to wear them again in 1999? I looked it up and it was "Bad Boys Reunion Night" in the arena. Why wear something you just got rid of? All that's gonna do is annoy the fans.

Saw this on Reddit and Twitter but have no idea of the source. It matches the leak from months ago. A mashup of all Lakers eras. The only thing that's completely off is that there's no diamond Nike logo or diamond NBA logo so it may be a mockup.

I get Madden every year mostly because of changes like this, I just can't help it when it comes to that stuff. I mean I enjoy the games because I guess I'm simple but yeah.

Man, I was hoping the Giants actually went through with new white pants at home but oh well. I love the idea of blue dominant home and red dominant away, it's an interesting quirk. Also, I find it really funny that these white pants were probably brought in just so that they could have a stupid 10th Anniversary "throwback" uniform. HOW THE HELL ARE YOU GONNA HAVE A THROWBACK TO SOMETHING YOU WORE A YEAR AGO?!

The Giants are moving to northwestern stripe pants for home and away? Interesting. I'll have to see in in action before I come to a full conclusion of what I think but just from that image it looks pretty nice on the away uniform. If they really do have blue stripes on the home white pants then I don't think that will look good but we will see.

Yes, it's a photoshop. We won't see Russ in a Lakers jersey for real until like September or October when they do media/press stuff like usual.

Very interesting to see these listed as sideline hats.

It's nothing new. Reebok had been doing weird hat designs for years back in the early aughts. I actually had one and it actually was my favorite hat for awhile.

Makes sense that the Celtics, Knicks and Warriors get throwbacks for the 75th Anniversary. They did it for the 50th Anniversary too in 1996-97. I find it pretty funny that the Celtics are throwing back to when they wore sleeves in 1946 but the sleeved uniforms no longer exist. If there was ONE time and I mean only ONE TIME for that dumb idea to return then this would have been it.

A white facemask would have made no sense for that helmet design or the reason for the uniform in general. Nothing upsets me more when a team makes a throwback but it ends up being some totally new thing like what Washington did. If you can't find a way to do some form of throwback then why even bother? If the helmet and the jersey have to be from different years that's fine, but it's atleast doing something that is throwing back to history. Thankfully, 2021 will be the last time the mismatching will stop.

I have always thought that people on this board have a hard time accepting that alot of teams just don't want to do something including myself sometimes. It's like why wouldn't you want to put 3 stripes on your jersey? The 49ers have had that for decades. They can't be that stupid right? Oh well.

The Colts have a new horse logo?!

The Olympics finally have a new graphics package after what felt like an eternity. Here's what we got during Women's Soccer. It's pretty nice.

I don't mind the Bucks black jersey because it's been their alternate jersey for the last 5 years. It's still a main part of the brand as a result, so even if it doesn't look that great, it atleast makes sense.

They should be called the Washington I'M SICK OF THIS TOPIC SO MUCH IT IS EXTREMELY ANNOYING PLEASE CHANGE THE TEAM NAME ALREADY SO WE CAN ALL MOVE ON WITH ON OUR LIVES AND LIVE IN PEACE PLEASE GOD I BEG YOU. It's a little long but I think it could work.

The Rams new white jersey is exactly what it should have been from the start. It seems obvious to me that somewhere in the creative process, the Rams decided to switch the bone uniform to being the away uniform. The uniform alignment is totally backwards. It looks like an alternate jersey while the new white jersey looks alot like the home jersey and evokes alot of what the Rams fans wanted in the first place. Someone in the organization must have made the call to switch them. This whole thing is very boneheaded. I'm sorry, I can't resist.

THANK GOD.

Here's a better look at the NBA 75th Anniversary logo.

E-40 didn't even make it to worldwide knowledge until like 2006 when "Tell Me When To Go" came out. He was already popular here in California before that but man, that song really did alot to keep his career going and let people know. You're in the clear on this as far as I'm concerned.

That's what happens when you're the GOAT.

It seems like the NFL modified the amount of times you can wear an alternate since there's 18 weeks as opposed to 17 weeks now. 49ers will wear the red jersey 4 times and the white one 2 times. I'm a bit concerned by how much they get to do this, but I want to feel like they got leeway because they are the 49ers and this is how the uniform was in 1994 but that's just wishful thinking.
