  1. Forget Indiana and those uniforms that look old and dingy, those Purdue uniforms look great!
  2. Over the past couple years, his Safeway/Vons-Albertsons schemes have sucked. The slap them together and then add black. I've been disappointed at them.
  3. He wins a lot and people hate that. I also think a lot of hate comes from his and RCR's baby act last year at the November Martinsville race when Sheldon Creed actually raced him instead of laying over and letting him win Martinsville. It made him look like an adopted Childress grandchild who is going to suck at the Cup level and people are tired or Childress children as a whole.
  4. They were consulted. That's one of the issues players have is they said that there would be adjustable pants and now they're being told pants can't be adjusted. I forget where I read that as there are so many articles on the issues.
  5. You're missing the point of symmetrical. They are talking about colors, so one side can't be black and the other side red. It's been done in the past, but Terry Labonte's 2014 Talladega scheme where it was a Kellogg's scheme on one side and a Piedmont Airlines scheme on the other side. https://www.sportingnews.com/us/nascar/news/nascar-wont-ok-tribute-paint-scheme-for-terry-labonte/kvemhdpesnt01ohgtzbw40p12 I know it's been done it the past, but that scheme I think NASCAR said, "We're done."
  6. Nope there has not been any asymmetrical schemes. I know for a fact that in 2017 the #5 of Kasey Kahne had to change his Justice League scheme because it violated the rule. Here's what the rule book says: “Both (left-hand side) and (right-hand side) of the vehicle must emulate each other in all colors, markings and graphics. Vehicles with a longitudinal centerline split in appearance extending from front bumper to rear bumper will not be permitted.” JJ's scheme might be able to skirt the rule since it just fades towards the back and is not the entire side. But that also may just be a show car and not the real scheme.
  7. Are you talking about the Eric Jones 5 Hour Energy scheme that had more black on it?
  8. Valid. I also throw Chase Briscoe and Ryan Preece on that list. And for next year Austin Cindric and Ricky Stenhouse. I realize Stenhouse won the 500 last year, but I feel like he's only at JTG because he won the 500. The driver that should be on the hot seat that won't be for obvious reasons is Austin Dillon.
  9. Can you give us an example? The Rush trucks I've seen are white with the logo on the side.
  10. That scheme is representative of Noah's Cup career... bland as can be.
  11. Their sponsor is Goodwill? Dear Lord the perfect sponsor for a team who takes everyone's unwanted crap.
  12. As for the Dodgers, this is not the best look. It's ruined by the stupid "LA" on the sleeve. If you take that off then it's by far the best look, but the "LA" on the sleeve ruins these to an average look.
  13. The way I'm reading it is that Suarez will be running the xfinity race with an unkown team as of now, say Green Light Racing (#07 or #08).
  14. I had a graphic design teacher once say that he tossed a kid a quarter and told him, "Here's a quarter. Go call your momma and tell her that you're not gonna be a a graphic designer!" Can we toss that same quarter to Bieber and say, "Here's a quarter, go call your momma and tell her that you suck at design."
  15. Why? Why change your brand from something successful? It makes no sense.
  16. You realize that the number is not the driver's at all and rather the owner's that they lease from NASCAR. Why would you change a successful brand? That's like the Yankees going away from pinstripes because Babe Ruth isn't on the team.
  17. I did grab the Kraken jersey, but like others have said the vintage white didn't work with Vegas. It worked with Seattle because I think they actually had a dark color to counter act the vintage white whereas Vegas was gold om vintage white. It works with some teams, but not others. It just feels like a copout because it's been used so much. If you go back through the history of the Winter Classic, the jerseys that use white and not vintage white are far superior.

  18. They probably realized that no one watches the games and the uniforms bring in 0 money and and real advertising.
  19. I don't mind the stuff around the ice.... you have to fill in empty space somehow. Otherwise it looks stupid. The issue I have is the shoving down our throats of vintage white... look people if you look back in time, the vintage white is actually white, not tan like you claim. Make it white!
  20. No that was the original thinking before they changed to black and sliver. Nothing was produced with the dark blue and silver.
  21. What many people don't know is Bruce McNall was looking to change the Kings to a dark blue and silver team because that was the colors of his company. Also when Gretzky showed off the jersey, the league had no idea the Kings were changing their uniforms and it caught the league off-guard. Thus now you have the rule where you have to alert the league of possible change,
  22. They won't go back to purple and gold as long as Luc Robitaille is president. He pretty much said at a luncheon last year that I attended that they are a Black and Silver team. I figure if they change, as someone mentioned about they will go to a look of their 3rd as home and away.
  23. Watching the Kings- Rangers game and the Rangers new jerseys/socks are very underwhelming.
  24. Ignorant thinking. Look, let's call a spade a spade, not everyone who watches sports is as deep into it as we are. Having OSU, while simplifying the uniform, is pretty dumb. Those casual fans don't know the difference between Ohio State, Oklahoma State, and Oregon State. They just see OSU and will ask who the opposing team is playing. Be simple and straight forward and put the school name or nickname on the jersey. It's not that hard.
