  1. Lifelong Colts fan here, and who knows, I might be going through the five stages of grief? Black? On a Colts uniform? What type of sacrilege is happening here? However, the racing stripes do work (because it is Indiana) and the heather pattern are interesting. But, if any team does not need an alternate uniform, it's the Colts! The home and away sets are the definition of classic and timeless, and they are just now toying around with the Colts identity. Full disclosure: I just saw this uniform five minutes ago, so I'm still letting my emotions process.
  2. Fun fact: one of the names Oregon considered in the 1920s when they decided on the Webfoots (which was originally from a group of fishers in American Revoultion-era Massachusetts) included the Yellow Jackets. Yes. The Oregon Yellow Jackets.
  3. Simple and very clean. These drop shadow numbers are leagues better than the monstrosities that was the mid-to-late 2010's Browns look.
  4. That lighting logo across the shoulders on the front is brilliant. The only minor gripe that I have is that the logo on the back above the NOB makes it feel clustered.
  5. At the same time, I'm kind of befuddled why they would have a race in the blistering heat of Atlanta in the middle of the summer. I'd like for them to move it to a later date like how it was in the late 2000's/early 2010's - not in the playoffs, but not too far away.
  6. It looks more like the logo of NordVPN than anything else.
  7. JPM came pretty darn close a few times in Cup: Indy 2009 and 2010, Pocono 2009, Loudon 2009, Dover 2013... JPM and Ambrose were both quick on the ovals at times and grabbed poles, they just didn't execute well in the race.
  8. I'm a little late...but I noticed that you kept the Colts secondary logo inside the jersey, but that logo includes the state of Indiana in it...
  9. I like the A's set - always a sucker for the Henderson-era uniforms - however the Las Vegas script feels too stretched out.
  10. It's great to see other talent from other series to come over and to try their hand at NASCAR. SVG did an amazing job yesterday, and I hope projects like Project91 and Kamui Kobayashi doing a one-off with 23XI will help entice other high-level drivers into the sport. For the race, it was actually good, and I'm glad they were able to salvage something from the awful weather. Yes, it was a wreck fest, but it's what some of these road course races have divulged into. Also doesn't help that they only had 50 minutes of practice. Additionally, I'm super proud of Justin Haley. Drove his absolute butt off with older tires and brought it home in 2nd.
  11. Colgate Football - cleans more than just your teeth... But seriously, this is really good. I've always preferred the "'gate' helmet. Keep up the great work!
  12. Man, I miss Tim Lincecum, but him playing for the Angels did not fit.
  13. And why did they feel the need to change it?
  14. Personally, I'm equal parts excited and worried about the All-Star Race. North Wilkesboro was before my time, so it will be great to get to see back on the circuit. Personally, I'd like to see Rockingham back on the schedule as well... I'm just cautious because the short track racing with the NextGen car has been lackluster, to say the least. I have a feeling there won't be a lot of good "boys have at it" racing that people are hoping for.
  15. I love the integration of the city flag onto the jersey. It felt very seamless. Having no logo on the cap is a bold choice too; however, I think it works. Keep up the great work!
  16. I'm EXCITED for the old Quaker State scheme to come back. If only they did an old DW/Ricky Rudd Tide Ride throwback for Haley (I'm really hoping the Tide sponsorship wasn't a one and done)...also, Herbst and the 98 team doing a tribute to Ken Block is great stuff as well. However, in my opinion, the best throwback will be coming at the All-Star Race, when Harvick races the 29 one last time...
  17. Cubs fan reporting for duty... But seriously, you did a great job with this concept. I feel like I am in the minority that actually likes the "Cuba" jersey, and I'm glad you were able to adapt that into a new alternate. The City Connect style hat is a great fit for it too (speaking as a flag nerd). I don't know why, but the cream fits the Cubs pretty well. Also, now that you said it, I realize how right you are - the NL logo on the sleeve did somehow work. Keep up the great work! I can't wait to see what you have next.
  18. Bouncing off of that, the thrifting subculture here has expanded in recent years, and a result of that is seeing many people my age wearing NASCAR merchandise with probably zero knowledge of the sport. I'm glad that at least the sport is getting noticed by people my age, however most times I want to be a natural heel and go up to them and quiz them on NASCAR trivia. It more like a "fashion trend" these days. The good news is that I have gotten my fair share of vintage NASCAR merch...
  19. Arizona introduced their new black helmets, but that's all I can think of.
  20. From the people who brought you "How It's Made"
  21. I feel like they can keep the green around as "legacy" branding per-se, but I don't know how they can change the branding that doesn't make it look like cliché of Vegas design tropes.
  22. Can't wait for someone to wear "ll" on a uniform
  23. I agree. The foundation is good, however that word mark looks like a skeleton of a font. To sound off of @tigers, I do see how the helmet can get lost. Could switching the color scheme?
  24. And within a few years, Adam West would be having a career renaissance and Bergeron would be hosting AFV and Hollywood Squares...
