Old School Fool

Lions will probably go with monochrome blue as their default home look next season.

The Seahawks Sportslogos.net article has an interest comments section.

You're really assuming no new uniforms or logos based on a picture of a placeholder design in an under construction arena?

It looks way better now but I would have preferred an entirely new look. My local CW station in Sacramento moved to combine with MyNetworkTV in a weird hybrid station, so you get MyNetwork in the day and CW as a primetime block along with CW Sports. The resulting old CW station went back to its callsign and number for the name and it's pretty cool to see a channel like that again. We also have a complete unique logo for MyNetworkTV.

Mahomes helmet is made by VICIS not Riddell, you know the company that supposedly has the safest helmets ever. I think it's as safe as it gets because he took the hit and was fine. Whatever is under the shell clearly kept him safe on that impact. If anything I feel like this just validated the existence of VICIS in terms of safety but calls into question the weather proofing, then again I don't think anybody can predict the weather being the way it was, you know what I mean?

I have never seen an NFL helmet get cracked before. Was it because of the cold? There's no way modern helmets are cracking so easily without some help.

I hate that I actually like these two.

Can we stop complaining about social media captions like this? We get it, you don't like team social media accounts trying to be relatable. It's starting to get old and most importantly I don't even care what these teams post most of the time, the Texans account could have tweeted "Pee pee butt fart" for all I care.

For what it's worth, that Reddit mockup was done from someone who posted about it on the official Denver Broncos forum (The Broncos have a forum?!) and it seems like this is going to suck. The whole "Snowcapped" nonsense may have been a test run. https://forums.denverbroncos.com/forum/broncos-football/broncos-football-aa/8480085-new-uniforms-coming-2024 If you don't want to read what the guy said, here's the short of it: White helmet, multiple facemasks, horse head logo, snow mountain sleeves (with silver because of course), 5280 down the pants and Elway throwbacks added in to insult our intelligence. Some very similar tidbits were stated by another Twitter user who's postings can be found on Uni Watch here: https://uni-watch.com/2024/01/10/lets-all-go-bonkers-speculating-about-the-broncos-new-uniforms/ Now that we have the wild speculation out of the way, there is this tweet: What will it be? Who knows. We better pray that it's decent.

I would be surprised if the Broncos completely ignore the D Horse logo, I would hope they have a new version as primary or at least an alternate logo. They've been flirting with the logo's existence being around for good similar to the Pat Patriot logo. They even went as far as to have the logo in the endzone for four games in 2020 and I thought that was pretty cool.

I was one of the few people who liked the Lions black jersey, I'm aware it only happened because Matt Millen is a goober and wanted to play Raiders dress up but I still liked it. They were suppose to bring it back in 2016 with the mandated Color Rush but they never wore it, it was definitely some good tweaks over the previous black look. Since it was never worn there's no full photo of what it looked like in full. The only example of it is in a promo shot and Madden 17, also they sold replicas of the jersey.

It's funny you mention this because I think it's officially been 20 years since I made this account. I was 13 at the time and I'm 33 now. One of a handful of stupid usernames I came up with as a kid because I thought I was cool and at some point I decided to keep this one because I really appreciate the longevity of such stupidity.

Just a company recovering from near bankruptcy from COVID by nuking everything that made them succesful in the first place. No more animatronics, no more good aesthetics in general, just a soulless Dave and Busters copy. No kid wants to go here.

Also, I'm just gonna say it, I think this is my favorite Falcons uniform in general. It's nostalgic for me. Before switching to red at home, before Nike screwed it all up. Also, they use to have black pants (with white striped socks!?) and it was great, they mothballed it after like two seasons or something. The removal of black pants along with Nike's template screwing it up really watered down their look.

My favorite Falcons helmet.

Your examples were because they had no choice due to COVID. It won't happen because it makes no sense from a scheduling standpoint. All it would do is piss off the NFLPA and piss off the fans.

Here is how I decided to watch the NFL on Christmas.

I didn't like it when they wore that jersey on Thanksgiving in 2004. The genius of the Bears orange jersey is that it's a color swap, which I think is a lost art among alternate jerseys nowadays in sports. Don't get me wrong I love myself some wacky looks from time to time but sometimes the best alternates are the ones that don't go all out.

Raiders are thankfully wearing throwbacks for Christmas. I really hate that they never announce when they will do it, so I wasn't sure if it would happen since they've only really worn it in primetime games.

I like how they had a chance for very obvious Christmas colors and instead they went with the color of coal and burnt yule logs. I guess they're expecting to get cooked by Tommy Devito.

I've always wanted the Yankees to wear this in a regular season game. This is all you need to do.

The Texans are going to be stupid and put H-Town on the front of the jersey in giant lettering like the Falcons. I bet they get a black helmet for an alternate with the H-Town script too. It's gonna get stupid.

No doubt in my mind it was done to give it legitimacy. In like 10 years it'll probably be normal. I just wish the tournament was referred to as the NBA Cup because that sounds way better and could get the casual sports fan intrigued.

NFL Network used the old Baltimore Colts logo too.

Funny you bring up red socks because the original Pat Patriot look in the 60's had red socks with blue stripes. They wore it several times in 2009 as part of the AFL 50th Anniversary.
