  1. Do people in Houston actually use the phrase H-Town? I'm asking because I honestly don't know and have never heard it until these rebrand leaks over the last few months. From an outsider with no knowledge of "H-Town" it feels very cringe. Even the font is cringe to me, but again, there could be some Houston tie there that I have no idea about.
  2. I'm cool if people want to thumbs down this comment, but the navy gold on this looks great. It's probably my STL brain kicking in. But all of these look really good and so much better than what they wear
  3. 100% agree. I would love to see a white helmet with the current helmet logo.
  4. I'll go a step further... I miss the days when you knew what the team would be wearing because they only had one combo for home and one for away. I love an occasional throwback or an alternate, but there shouldn't be this much guessing as to what teams might look light on a week to week basis.
  5. I'm with you. It looks like classic Rams and also solves the issue of the navy helmet/royal jersey that people seem to hate (never bothered me). I love this.
  6. I could go into critiquing the jersey itself, but I would rather just ask the question of why it is even necessary? The Rangers just don't need a third jersey. And if they decided that they absolutely need one, this isn't the route. The Rangers are in the realm of the Wings, Hawks, etc. They just need their classic home and away. If they add a third, even if it is a good design, just won't feel right in my eyes.
  7. I get your argument, but full on color rush barf pea soup green is not their traditional look at all. I would probably agree with you if they rolled out in navy over gray or something. But not this garbage.
  8. That would have been a nice shoutout to the old bubblehockey games It was always Blues vs Wings when I played. That was the only time the Blues could beat those Yzerman teams
  9. Wow there are some real similarities between your concept and what was released.
  10. I might get roasted, but I kind of like it. I dislike it for the Canes because it's just another element to their weird persona. But something kind of works for the Leafs there.
  11. The black helmet with the tiger head sans the oval is really cool. As a Mizzou fan, I was never a big fan of the addition of grey to their palette. But that black helmet is really nice.
  12. I have always wanted a Blues jersey with the 90s trumpet shoulder patch as the crest. I think it would make a great alternate jersey
  13. This Patriots set is nice when paired with the silver pants. Without those pants, nothing matches the helmet base color. But there is no reason to dog the uniform. It has the same problem that over half the league has every week. It just isn't paired right.
  14. I love them too. Part of me wants some of the gray/silver from the original set in there, but I don't know where and I wonder if it would take away from the teal's dominance. They did a great job on this set.
  15. So basically if a animal logo isn't angry AF, then the animal is lazy? I've never seen a pissed off cardinal in my life. I get it. Sports are aggressive. I get why logos get cleaned up and trending towards a more aggressive look. But, they also lose personality in that process. I also wouldn't say that my personal tastes are stuck in the past. rather, I like uniqueness. At least unique elements that still add up to a good looking uniform. I perfer the uniqueness of the Seahawks throwback look, but personally I prefer the Eagles current look over their throwback. I think their current shade of green is unique and they own that color so well.
  16. I agree with RH on the Seahawks logo. Love the orignal. I just feels like every new logo or logo update after 2000 had the requirement of being a swooshy angry animal. Every logo had to be slanted as if to evoke movement or speed. Jags Panthers Ravens Patriots move to the swooshy patriot head Falcons bird gets meaner and slanted Cardinal head gets meaner Detroits lion gets more defined and aggressive Etc Etc Etc IMO it takes some of the personality out of the logo.
  17. When I was a kid, Brett Hull was my idol. In 1994, McDonalds had a 3 book set of comic books with Brett Hull as the super hero. The premise was that Brett Hull had to defeat these hockey robots in the future. Your description of the rebook era reminds me of those comic books Side note, I have two sets of the comic books. One set that my dad let me read and another set still in the plastic. Thank god he made me save those
  18. I agree. Of all of the throwbacks that debuted this year, the Eagles is the one I like the least. There current set is a much better look when paired correctly. I wouldn't mind a slight update to the current set while keeping the current green and leaning more into silver instead of black.
  19. The Block M! I wish it was a yellow M on a black helmet, but oh well. Good to see it still exists. I was starting to wonder.
  20. That Browns set wasn't good, but I don't feel like it is even on the realm of the Buc's alarm clocks or Rams all bone or Jags barf colored with a two tone helmet. The biggest issue was that they are such a classic identity that didn't need anything changed at all.
  21. The shoulder horn has always reminded me of a side view of the Gateway Arch ironically. When the Rams first moved to St. Louis, they used this logo below. That shoulder horn always reminds of the yellow of the arch in that logo. The angles are different, but I see it every time.
  22. Wow that is something I did not know. Honestly, that's even more bizarre than the piping and the hem stripeless jersey. What in the world was going on over at Reebok during that time?
  23. Furthermore, Green Bay doesn't leotard. Pitt doesn't leotard. We just saw the Chiefs do it and it looked terrible compared to their normal set. It's not like it's impossible to wear contrasting socks.
  24. Ok then 15 years ago did people say? SLEEVE STRIPES ARE RIP. JERSEY PIPING IS GOING NOWHERE. IT'S NOT 1980 ANYMORE. YOU DON'T LIVE IN CLEVELAND. Trends are trends and I'm sure eventually there will be leggings made to mimic socks with stripes and will thus kill the leotard look. Just because it's a trend doesn't mean its looks good. And if you can't complain about it on this forum, there where would you? It's beaten to death, so I get your point. But, it really is a dead horse that deserves the beating it is getting.
  25. Agree 100% with this post. First on the Canes... on top of all of their weird uniform choices, none of them are actually "innovative." They are choices just to be different. As far as the Whalers/Oilers throwbacks, you hit the nail on the head. It's a complete money grab. Which tears me apart because both the Whalers and Oilers are two of my favorite looks in both sports. I love seeing them being used, but deep down, it just doesn't feel right. This is also coming from a guy that owns two Whalers hats, so I guess my will power isn't strong enough to resist the money grab
