  1. Yellow is such a weird uniform color to me. I don't really like it as a light or a dark uniform color. I think that Nashville's current home yellow doesn't contrast well enough against any road team in white jerseys, and I've never been a fan of color vs color in any sport. But no argument from me that the design of that yellow Canucks uniform's design was lacking.
  2. I am looking forward to hopefully an AFC Championship Game without the Chiefs, or at least one not at Arrowhead. I am also fully prepared for this statement to age like milk.
  3. It's because the Panthers ran him into the ground as their only offensive weapon. The Niners use him more like a traditional RB, they have other guys that can shoulder the load.
  4. The Eagles were carving the Niners defense up early in the game last week with quick slants to AJ Brown, not sure why they stopped doing that. I'm not denying the Eagles' talent at all, there's a reason why last year, combined with a good offensive scheme, they were unstoppable. I absolutely agree with you that the playcalling is the issue here. Give these guys a competent game plan, and they'll run over everyone.
  5. Is it that the receivers can't get separation and get open? Has it been a consistent issue throughout the season? Because I thought the Eagles have the best O-line in the league and Hurts has elite mobility. I know the Niners got a bunch of coverage sacks on the Eagles because the secondary was lockdown, and that combined with stopping the run neutralized the Eagles offense.
  6. Silver helmet, silver pants, and those navy socks, that's a winning combo (it would also be a direct throwback to their 1994 uniforms).
  7. All I can say is, look at where Toney is in this pic. It's clearly a joke. Don't think this is as daunting as you think it is. You'll get either banged-up Geno or Drew Lock as your opponent. The Seahawks are in their own heads right now. You'll be fine.
  8. There's no way this wasn't done with the specific purpose of pissing the entire city of Houston off. At least the uniforms will look good, if not the quality of play on the field. A team that won a game 6-0 vs a team that lost a game 3-0, on primetime. Thrilling.
  9. My personal favorite season is 1990-91. - Last year before the North Stars went to a black uniform - First year of the final original Jets uniforms - Rangers introduce arched nameplates - Skate uniforms were toned down so that there's no yellow home jersey - None of the darker 90s rebrands have kicked in yet (the Kings are in silver/black, but that happened in 1988)
  10. It's very possible that Fanatics isn't going to change anything about the on-ice uniforms next year. They already announced they're going to be producing the uniforms in the same factory that Adidas is currently using, so maybe the NHL is permitting teams to keep their alternates for the transition. Teams were allowed to keep their uniforms after the lockout when the NHL went from CCM/Koho to Reebok (in the couple of seasons they had the contract before the Edge template)
  11. Mount Davis is such an eyesore, and it becomes even worse when you remember neither team at the Coliseum ever really used it. To this day, I don't understand the point of ever building it.
  12. lmao you're now 0-4 against Brock Purdy. He owns you. Also, we're the 1 seed!
  13. Wasn't paying attention to who was on the field for that, by that point my attention had shifted to the trainwreck that was Vikings/Raiders. I was just joking, I think Big Dom is hilarious.
  14. They don't have Big Dom on the sideline to intimidate the refs anymore
  15. Niners can move into the 1 seed if the Cowboys win because they hold tiebreaker over both the Eagles and Cowboys
  16. So jarring. We haven't had a real alternate jersey since 2017. I'll critique it at a later date, since it just looks plain weird to me right now. One note on tonight's matchup tho: The Kings' chrome helmets can right off.
  17. When Josh Dobbs is so bad that Nick Mullens is a better option. Wouldn't wish that fate on anyone. And somehow it worked out lmao. The best part is that the last 3-0 game, Steelers/Dolphins 2007, was at least on some of the worst grass/mud ever in a downpour. This was indoors, there's no excuse for this offensive incompetence.
  18. This looks even weirder than Kane as a Ranger imo.
  19. You should tell that to the Texas Rangers as well -- they named themselves after the state of Texas despite arriving there a decade after the Astros.
  20. (probably) the real reason: Dazzle fabric doesn't fit completely perfectly into Nike's pre-established set of colors and materials when they took over the NFL contract in 2012, and when they told teams like the Saints about this, the teams made zero fuss about it and so Nike didn't bother researching how to make a lighter dazzle fabric.
  21. It really depends on the accent colors. The dark red and silver make the navy seem darker, while green and off-white give off a more vibrant feel. It probably also has to do with the fact that a lot of the years that the Canucks had those navy/red orca uniforms were considered "dark ages," while navy/green is a lot closer to the team's correct color scheme of royal/green.
  22. Lmao. Thanks for reminding me of that 2016 team that limped into the playoffs and completely fell apart against the Cubs. The sign that the Even Year BS was over.
  23. Yeah I didn't know that rule, so I'll complain less for now, but I'm not exactly confident in the direction of this baseball team.
