  1. Hopefully all the hideous City Connect uniforms are incinerated never to be seen again. Also, can we move past the crappy and dull matte batting helmets? That trend is over and never should have started to begin with.
  2. Didn't see this mention in the thread so I'll post. Looks like Pitt might be getting some new uniforms: Pitt HC Pat Narduzzi Teases New Uniforms Goodness, I sure hope they don't do the crappy all-white uniforms that is so cliched and fugly.
  3. (Mod edit - no politics) I do like the Red Tails name. Historically speaking, it works and it keeps the word "red" in the name. Thing is, I think they should go with the exact uniform design the 'Skins had and update the logo accordingly.
  4. A similar shade of the blue as the Cowboys paired with silver? No thanks. The first pic is the look that should be permanent for the Seahawks. The current design is garbage and so is the design they switched to in 2002 ( I think that was the year).
  5. Literally, as opposed to figuratively? That word is not necessary. That word along with "clean" and "icy" needs to be used way less, if not eliminated. Where did I say anything about the age of the franchise? You're taking my comments out of context. I said absolutely nothing about the age of the franchise. I'm talking about the tradition of the uniforms, which I clearly articulated but you chose to ignore and bring up something irrelevant to the conversation.
  6. The Chiefs and Steelers have mostly kept to tradition with their uniforms, so I have to reject your comparisons. The Cardinals don't have that tradition like the Chiefs and Steelers so I believe yellow would be fine as a complementary color since yellow is the color of the beak in the logo. I'd have to see the uniforms with the yellow in them, but as of now I don't hate it.
  7. I dig the uniforms and I expected it to be swap out of purple and orange for black and yellow. Would have preferred either a yellow helmet or put some white stripes (are they called sandwich stripes?) on either side of the yellow on the helmet - only to be a bit different than the Steelers. I like the glossy helmet, especially when you contrast to the Steelers satin helmets. I'm in agreement with Volt on adding some gray. I would have gone with gray pants rather than white. I absolutely hate white pants 99% of the time when it comes to football uniforms but gray pants would have matched the gray facemasks.
  8. The Penguins incorporated gray in their uniforms from 1996 - 2000. I wasn't offended by that as much as I was the hideous humming bird logo and goofy imbalanced striping patterns.
  9. I'm a yinzer. I never cried to high hell or any other level of hell about using black and yellow/gold. I like that our teams are unique in using the same colors - which are the colors in the Pittsburgh flag. It always made sense to me to use the colors that are in the city's flag. Despite that, I loved the original Maulers uniforms and I'm old enough to remember when they played. I even bought their merch when I was a kid. I do remember there was a bit of a push back on using purple and orange back then. I'm not a fan of the new design since I prefer traditional striping but I did like the colors.
  10. One thing is for sure - the shade of green the Eagles use sure is fugly. I wish they would change their uniforms back to the ones they wore during the Randall Cunningham era.
  11. Oh. how I hate those overused words to describe uniforms. Makes me cringe every time I read them.
  12. I could not agree more. I'm so over this WFWS probably more than BFBS. Anything with "ice" to describe all-whites is just overused and annoying as "clean" is as an adjective to describe a uniform one likes.
  13. Slight italic? I don't see it and I'm no fan of that look either. They definitely should be going with a gray facemask. I don't know they aren't if they're throwing it back to 1972 this weekend.
  14. I stand corrected and shouldn't have assumed, but used to be affiliated with Nee-kay is bad enough. I still don't like the blandness of the rebrand. Garbage compared to what they had.
  15. I shouldn't be surprised with how bad these new uniforms look given the fact that it's Nike who did the design. It looks like Nike ripped off the 2012 crappy “M” Marlins logo. Not much is good about any of these new uniforms. Disappointing.
