    Anyone have a good Nike-style poster template resource? I'm going to be doing the senior posters for my son's high school football team next year. The typical fog, lights, etc. Something I can buy and make life easier and make the posters look great. Thanks for any resources.

    Creative market may have what you need.

    These look like a super bush league high school now.  The Orange mask at least gave it some sort of a custom, major league finish.

     

    My guess is they didn't have enough made and maybe they are ordering more.  Instead of mixing & matching for the player helmets they had now, maybe they pulled the Black that they acquired from the AAF and are just using them temporarily.  Hopefully the Orange mask returns but that custom paint can take a minute.

    Major League Football got all of the AAF gear. Black facemasks are pretty easy to get shipped immediately in place of a custom color mask.

    Definite downgrade.  I wonder if this is for practice only.  The Orange mask at least made this much more of a unique helmet and minimized how horrific that stripe decal is.

    If they were having an issue with the coloring clashes I can see why they'd go with black. What they really should have changed was the side panels.

    This looks to be the same cheap jersey type/quality that the DX Jerseys they sold on wweshop were back in 1998

    adidas has been known to be pretty lazy with most of their college replicas until the last 2-3 years. These look better than the replicas from the AAF, which had a seam running across the top of the shoulders rather than one solid shoulder/yoke, no shoulder numbers and had logos on the sleeves that weren't on the actual jerseys.

  5. Looking at some of these I can see ways to fix them pretty easily.

     

    Houston - Lose the side panels and place the wildcatter logo on the sleeves instead of the stars. Use a blockier font number.

    LA Wildcats. Take that part of the pants stripe that min=mics claw marks and place it on the sleeve caps. Drop the side panels.

    Seattle - swap blue and green around. Add some type of scales on the sleeves. Fix the helmet logo, go with a different color helmet. 

    DC - swap pants around.

    Dallas - Swap jersey and yoke colors on the home jerseys. Recolor numbers as well.

    Tampa Bay - Swap pants, lose side panels. 

    St. Louis - change number font.

    New York - Swap pants.

    Much in the way of basketball jerseys/shorts/full uniforms? Happily give up my first born for whatever youve got!

    I have the Kevin Durant model for Nike and a few things I've picked up along the way. Shoot me a PM and I'll try tracking those down.

    Barstool wanted to sponsor the Mobile (AL) bowl game, but ESPN, who owns the game, rejected the offer specifically due to no other media companies can be title sponsor.

    I still find it annoying that ESPN actually owns bowl games. Granted the Gator Bowl was originally created to give Florida a bowl to go to.

    Am I the only one getting full page pop up ads for some insomia treatment? I also had one a short time ago for some other medication.

     

    I've seen them on my phone as well, now on the laptop.

     

    By the way -- it isn't a re-direct. It just appears over the page. When I clicked on the link to get the address, it vanished.

     

    2 more times just now for the full screen insomnia ad. Frustrating in that it closes easily, but then takes you to the top of the page you were on, not the post you were reading.

    I'm getting an add that scrolls up from the bottom. Those insomnia adds pop up as well on my laptop.

    The same on the phone and the desktop. Not every time, but they do seem to pop up when logging in after a few hours.

    I was thinking that shading has something to do with the jersey template from the manufacturer.

     

    Speaking of, does this jersey/pants template look like any distinct manufacturer? There's no makers mark on these designs, so I'm wondering if these were XFL in house designs (if these are ligit), as opposed to designs made by a manufacturer (which usually work better with their own jersey templates).

    That cut could be the new adidas Primeknit A1, or the Nike Vapor series. Without being able to see any seams or stitching, it's hard to tell. The number reminds me somewhat of the square adidas numbers though.

    Did the AAF ever get around to selling replica jerseys?  Using that as a barometer, I wonder how soon it’ll be before official XFL jerseys become available for purchase. I know in my research that Arena League jerseys aren’t the easiest to buy, even at its peak. 

    They had them on the league site, Dicks and at the games. If the XFL is like XFL 1.0 they'll be ready for January.

    First off, thank you for your service and the good wishes :) 

     

    I’m glad that they come across that way, that was my intention.

     

    I enlisted as a 19 Kilo (M1 Armored Crewman/Tanker), so I’ll be going to Fort Benning. They only just recently moved armor training to there, to my knowledge they do not offer BCT at Ft. Knox anymore.

    OK! Good to know. Good luck!

    The problem is that because dragons are mythical? You can find art of both Chinese and European versions to line up with either UAB or the Seattle XFL team's. 

    Regardless, I think UAB would have a case if they took the XFL to court over this. 

     

    That's just my understanding a layman though. Someone versed in intellectual property law would be better suited at speculating if there's a case there. 

    Different face and flames. You can say Seattle's logo is inspired by UAB but it's not a copy.

    I don't know if I'm happy or not that the Dragons didn't try and force an S for Seattle into the Dragon shape. So close but cuts off.

    I think you'd need to have a full body dragon to do a proper S.

    I don’t know about that LA logo for football, but it makes a helluva baseball logo.

    If that was the sleeve logo and the paw was the helmet logo I could see that working. I think we'll see the opposite though. 

     

    When the XFL was showing off the Generals logos I was hoping that meant that any new logos would be held to the same standard. In my opinion that didn't happen. They didn't need to take Dane's previous logos and re-purpose them, but they should have been able to get something better than what was revealed for most of the teams. The AAF logos were better, in my opinion, but I'm more worried about good football that can stay on the field for more than one season than I am what the logos look like. I feel like San Antonio proved that minor league football can still work if it's marketed properly. And if everyone else is getting a secondary and probably tertiary logos, we may see some items that make for better helmet logos than the original logos that came out on release day.

    As excited as I am to see the return of football to St. Louis, I'm nervous based on some speculation that the team name will be the Aces. 

     

    Or worse, based on this tweet that was posted a couple pages back

     

    I'm guessing it's not a Euro-centric name?
