The modern browns uniforms aren't awful. It's a fine uniform minus a few obnoxious and unnecessary details (Like the wordmark pants). It's a downgrade for sure, but its not the horrific monstrosity many on this board make it out to be. Of course this happens any time a """""""""classic"""""""" team makes a uniform change. I'd like to see them return to their previous unis, but if you removed the 'BROWNS' word mark from the pants and shortened the shoulder stripes from encroaching on the chest I think its a decent look. I'm actually a big fan of the large chest wordmark as well, it's distinctive for the NFL while being reminiscent of youth football.

I totally agree. Only change that you didn’t say that I would do is change the numbers on the home to white with an orange shadow.

While I can't find a picture of it, that looks a LOT like one of the finalists (not the actual one though) for Orlando's new flag.

You know, for someone who rarely agrees with you on the NFL Changes thread, I’m loving a lot of these concepts. You haven’t done anything for the Texans - would it be possible for you to tackle them next?

Could I see the 1995 Expansion Bowl? (Carolina vs Jacksonville)

Just adding my two cents to all of this:

 

NFL

 

I don't think the Bucs' jerseys are that bad. The font is strange, but not awful.

The Steelers need a rebrand. It's classic, sure, but the logo has nothing to do with steel or Pittsburgh. (Edit: no it doesn't I need to do my research!)

The Raiders' logo needs updating. The shading on it doesn't look great.

 

NBA

 

The Bulls need a brighter shade of red. Plus, the font on their logo needs an update.

The Pistons' identity is the worst in the NBA. It has nothing to do with Detroit or pistons. Go back to the horse.

The Warriors' logo is bad. It's just a bridge, and that bridge is not iconic at all. They should go back to the star on the bay with California in the background.

The Lakers need an update. All they need to do is remove the "speed marks" on the Lakers part, and update the colors.

The Clippers' identity isn't awful, and was definitely an improvement over what they had before. However, they should still go back to blue and orange.

The Hornets have the best color scheme in all of sports.

 

MLB

 

The Orioles need to go back to the cartoon bird. It looks much better.

The Anaheim Angels logo is great and they should go back to that.

The Yankees logo is bad. Just switch to the NY logo.

Note to Cleveland, Detroit, Colorado, Pittsburgh, and San Diego: just letters without any sort of design looks bad as a primary.

The Marlins color scheme and logo is great and is one of the best in the MLB.

 

NHL

 

The Hurricanes logo is great, and their identity isn't bad, but it doesn't hold a candle to the Whalers.

Fauxback logos are dumb. New York (both of them), Pittsburgh, Buffalo, and Toronto's logos all look awful. (Especially Pittsburgh.)

The Minnesota Wild have the best logo in all of sports. Period.

The Golden Knights name and logo are great, but they just need to get rid of the white on the logo.

 

MLS

 

DC United and Columbus need to update. Their logos look outdated.

The New England Revolution's logo is amazing. Absolutely beautiful.

 

Anyway, those are my opinions. Not sure how many of them are actually unpopular (387 pages are a lot to go through), but here they are for arguing with about how x logo is clearly better than y logo. Enjoy!

I'm honestly surprised that I agree with someone as much as I do with you. The only ones that I disagree with are the Hornets, Golden Knights (I love their logo, but not the name), and that DCU and Columbus need to update (they both made a massive upgrade in 2016 and 2015, respectively).

If a team needs an archrival counterpart just to be financially viable, that team should not exist in the first place.

Exactly. I don’t want Montreal in the league (especially if they come at the expense of my Rays), but realistically if they came back they would need Toronto in order to survive.

I didn't like this line of thinking when the Rangers pissypantsed their way into making the Astros change leagues and I don't like it here. Montreal was a National League town and an affiliate of a National League town. Given that Bell would almost have to own the team, this would have the American League on Sportsnet and the National League on TSN, a fair split. The Blue Jays shouldn't need Montreal to draw or they have big problems.

The Blue Jays may not need Montreal, but Montreal would definitely need the Blue Jays.

Why not just replace the Panthers with Columbus, or if you’re really against that then the Predators? I really don’t think that the Panthers are that important to save, especially with Tampa Bay’s success (both on and off the ice)

Has anyone else been redirected to an virus-containing site while randomly scrolling? It's been consistently happening  to me for the past week.

Thank God for antivirus.

That happened a TON a while ago to me, but it stopped a couple weeks ago. Are you getting redirected to a site that says “You’ve got the secret chance!” and has a thumbs up on it? If so, that’s the one that I got.

This isn't so unpopular on this board (I don't think?) but apparently the Stampeders' 2-colour helmet they use with their black alternate jersey is really popular amongst CFL fans, and I just don't understand it at all:

It's bad enough that it's just a recolour of the Jaguars' awful helmet, but the front's flat and the back's shiny - its not consistent at all, and that just really irritates me.

Exactly like the Jaguars helmet. All of my friends love it (and we talk uniforms a lot, and generally they have decent taste), and then I go cry in the corner and question my life choices try to argue with them.

White Chocolate for the Magic.... I had 0 idea this happened nor do I remember him in Orlando at all. 

Wait... seriously? I had no idea this even happened.

So, for the last few weeks, there has been an ad on the very bottom of the page that constantly makes my screen go down to it. It pulls my screen down, and then when I try to scroll back up it just pulls it back down. While not a site-breaking issue (I just refresh), it is extremely annoying.

Even more unpopular opinion: The Niners should bring those back.

The boards have been acting weird on my Android recently. The log in page appears oddly when I click the little button. I have to swipe my finger every time, instead of automatically being directed to the log in page. Also, the boards resize themselves a few times for no reason.

Same for me on my iPhone. The page always resizes itself so the actual posts is 1/4 or so of the actual page, with just a bunch of grey space to the right.

Look. I made this thread for discussion about that (pretty trash IMO) article saying the Rays could be moving to Vegas. However, just like every time the Rays come up, the conversation turns into a hatefest with people saying they wish the team would move. I mean, seriously? The Indians, who are World Series contenders, are 24th in the league in attendance. During Game 7 of the WS last year you could hear on the TV the "Go Cubbies Go" chants. No one is using the "even though the team is successful, they aren't drawing well, so they they should leave" argument for them. Also, Montreal, the main place where people are saying the Rays should go, was never a good draw either. The New Expos would have good attendance the first year due to the hype and then it would go back to the normal old 8,000 a year Expos, which the Rays have already outdrawn by over 7,000 (their attendance figures to date are 15,614 - undeniably a bad number but not nearly as bad as the beloved Expos, who according to everyone should come back immediately).

No chance, although if it does I will be more than a little annoyed with Rays fans everywhere. If fans from Texas show up and the local Rays fans don't, then they might as well book the team's own ticket to Montreal/Las Vegas/Omaha/Mexico City/whatever.

It needs something more. Much much too plain as of now.

Wait, what?  Did I miss something?

They signed a deal with a really small TV station that about 70% of Las Vegas viewers don't have

Tryin to imagine Gary Bettman's face if a MLB team would go Vegas!

 

Can you spell "nightmare"?

I'd like to see Bettman try.

Was there another update? The font on the main page looked different and I was logged out.

What I would suggest is to simply DM him and ask him to keep your logo onto it and credit you for it. If he refuses, then take further action. I mean, if someone is simply sharing your work then that's free publicity. 

My Mac doesn't have the bold problem. My phone does though.

Eh, I like the old version better. I guess I'll get used to it, though. 

Apologies if this has already been posted, but:
