  1. The red helmet and horns on the red jersey lacking white...while the numbers and pants stripes do...that's one of those inconsistencies that just drives me absolutely crazy. Really dig the home uniform. I've always had an inexplicable soft spot for TV numbers being slightly different from main numbers. Kinda ironic, given my gripes on consistency lol.
  2. The “mountains” on the shoulders are driving me up the wall. They only look like mountains on the blue jersey. Otherwise my first impression is lightning bolts. So close but so far. So frustrating.
  3. Bolts on the shoulders. Just blows my mind that nobody in the entire process thought “umm maybe we shouldn’t take a design element from our biggest rival.” Like how? I know it’s supposed to be a mountain. But it only comes across as a mountain on the blue jersey, with the white snow on top. Should’ve kept the white on top on the orange jersey too.
  4. "H-Town and tough" lololololol Like oh, this is H-town AND tough?? thanks for letting me know!"
  5. When is the official reveal? Surprised we haven't seen the full set yet.
  6. Absolutely cannot believe we're seeing new, non-throwback NFL Nike jerseys with block numbers. Gotta love it.
  7. HUGE upgrade for the Lions. The gray numbers were so dingy. All I wanted was white numbers, nix the WCF patch, and don't do anything too crazy. Success! Not a fan of the black jersey - but it's so awesome that they kept black out of the main jerseys.
  8. I actually kinda like the monolulu blue. Monochrome can be okay but there NEEDS to be pants stripes. The Lions all-white is so awful, but would at least be palatable with pants stripes. I will never understand the appeal of teams dressed in yoga pants. I mean never.
  9. Very insightful and interesting, thank you!
  10. "Club de Hockey Canadien." The official/original team name is French, and there is no 'M' in that name. That makes it a little different for me, especially with how long they've been around. But yeah those other examples irk me. Especially the Falcons. The logo is literally a Falcon...does it really need to be shaped like an F? It'd be one thing if they were the Frankfurt Falcons or something, and the F was representing the locale name. In that case, the logo would represent the full team name - F for Frankfurt, and a depiction of a falcon for..Falcons. The way it is now just seems redundant and doesn't strike me as clever at all. For the record I actually like the Falcons logo. Just the whole "the falcon is shaped like an F because falcon starts with F" seems dumb. Same thing with that Grizzlies logo. I mean...the identifier is with the animal mascot. Do Memphis fans really brand themselves around the first letter of the word "grizzlies?" Do they ever refer to the team as the "Gs?" Make that an M to include the locale name, and I'd be into it.
  11. The Orca logo sucks solely because it uses the initial of the team name and not the locale. That's one of my biggest pet peeves, just drives me crazy. Imagine if Michigan used a 'W' as their primary logo.
  12. Agreed. I love the all-blue, but wish they didn't wear it as much. Now they've become the "Big Game Blues." I absolutely loved the Rose Bowl uniforms with the white socks and sleeves (not to mention the shoulder patches). That's classic Michigan right there.
  13. The away looks: White-Blue-Blue White-Maize-White White-Maize-Maize White-White-White White-White-Blue
