  1. Why? Sports teams don't represent or "rep" an area, they just happen to play there. Most players don't "rep" an area either, and mos likely couldn't give a :censored: who they play for, and rightfully just want to be paid, so why change teams?
  2. I know that didn't come out as you expected, but still. Man, the Brewers must REALLY suck if one division title and one wild card is all they have to show for 20 years of a commissioner pulling strings for them.The Brewers suck.
  3. Didn't click either one, but that's probably the same link that the admiral posted earlier in the thread. He mentioned that one was about bananas, too. Anyway, typical Glendale. I actually know someone who tried to say that the Coyotes made money their first few years in Phoenix. If I remember correctly, some seats in America West Arena only let you see about 70% of the ice. So they were pretty much going to struggle from the start (and then fail) because there wasn't a plan to move into a hockey arena after playing a year or two at America West Arena. Team bled money then, team bleeds money now. Even in their hockey arena.
  4. The top two tweets for Glendale are by Paul Bissonette and Bree Olson. Anybody know of where I can find a replay of the stream?
  5. Explain why, in the Coyotes' first season at now Jobing.com Arena, their attendance rose roughly 7% from their final America West Arena season?
  6. Why. Those colors are much more industrial than the throwback colors, which is perfect for a team called the Oilers. The Houston/Tennessee Oilers got away with a supposedly industrial name while wearing powder blue and bright red. I'm not even sure if working on an oil rig is what comes to mind when I think "industrial." I think "auto factory" or "steel mill" before I think "oil rigs." You guys are overanalyzing it. The Houston/Tennessee Oilers' colors and the Edmonton Oilers' navy and copper colors are good because they're just that, a good color scheme, nothing more, nothing less. Has nothing to do with industrialization or whatever, just good color schemes.
  7. You aren't really covering it though; just posting a link to your website for views.
  8. Yes, this is what they are doing. To be fair, the banners are on the other side of the stadium from the NFL championship ones. I don't know, I just don't think the playoff years are needed. It feels like they just wanted something recent and that's all they could get. Had the banners been up for years and they added 2011, I guess it would be fine. It just feels pointless. As Jim Schwartz said last year, "There will come a time when we don't celebrate making the playoffs". That time was the first decade of the 2000s.
  9. Sorry Tank, but I really doubt that CC wants to link to a site that, you know, doesn't proofread. He used to. He linked to wikipedia?
  10. Could the numbers from this era look any cheaper? The Champion number font has to be one of the worst ever.
  11. Dreadful Condensed (the sans serif version obviously).
  12. Those uniforms are bad. I know the yoke went all the way to the sleeve, but because the red breaks up the white (with the rest of the jersey being red of course) and there being no white after it is initially ended by the red, it looks like the yoke just ends at that intersection.
  13. I vaguely remember before the last Coyotes game at America West Arena, they said that you could only see about 70% of the rink from the upper deck on that side.
  14. People were arguing that Gary Bettman is doing a good job?
  15. No they aren't. Those sweaters are so bad that they can't even be used in a game, unless every game is a clash, Interesting. Considering they were exclusively worn against a team that also wore red and white, and no one seemed to have a problem telling the teams apart. The posted picture turns out to be extremely misleading. Turns out the leaf is only on the front, and the proportions look way off. After seeing highlights of the Summit Series, it doesn't surprise me that these uniforms work. They did it right. I still feel they suck, but for different reasons now.
  16. No they aren't. Those sweaters are so bad that they can't even be used in a game, unless every game is a clash,
  17. Edit: Nevermind, I misread the quited posts and my question was already answered. I like the numbers in the Price jersey more, but the team needs to choose between either having the single or the double outline on the home and road, I don't like the inconsistency.
  18. That's not a very strong point. I visit this site because of my interest in sports logos and uniforms, not because of an interest in trying to root out copyright infringement. They are two totally separate issues. It's possible to enjoy sports logos and not care about copyright infringement, just like it's ok to enjoy movies via bootleg, or to enjoy beer despite the fact that it has caused deaths. So you would be perfectly fine with some of your fellow board members having their designs ripped off, stolen or otherwise taken for monetary gain while they receive 0% of the profits, correct? Yes, I would. Just as they would be perfectly fine with someone doing something to me. I mean honestly, if someone stole my wallet tomorrow, and I bitched about it here, would you really give a ? Because if you did, I think you seriously need to consider your priorities. We're not really "friends" - I save that for real life. Because your wallet being stolen and people's work that they do for a living are the same exact thing. You've proved nothing in this thread. Goodbye. What? It is the same thing. Well, same result anyway; someone took something from you to get ultimately get money. Loogodude is right though about nobody here caring if someone stole his wallet. We live in a very individualistic society, and yeah, some of you deeply care about counterfeit goods being made, but I'm willing to bet that some of you (yes, even on a sports logos message board) don't care as much as you say you do mainly because it isn't YOUR work being stolen.
  19. Really if this was a picture to advertise the NHL around the world, we have no hope.... Besides people are clutching onto straws, convinced that a little over 9,000 is acceptable, if any arena in the North of the US or Canada got 9,000, their would be uproar, come on sort it out Bettman! New Jersey and Long Island are not considered to be in the northern US?
  20. Those worked because VA Tech's piping separated the orange and maroon. Too bad they never tried the orange yoke on both sleeves because it would have been great.
  21. Nobody thinks this guy is just some trolling hole that's ing with y'all?
