LakeShow24 Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 I don't like them covering up the 60. I want it to be visible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's meant to look like a 60 even if you view only the portion above the ribbon, as well as if you ignore the ribbon and look at the whole thing. But it doesn't really work well. A smaller 60 above a ribbon that arcs downward would be better. 9 hours ago, Tigers6884 said: Please for the love of God just bring these back as alternates. Those were the 1969 uniforms. They'll probably use the 1968 style. However, from the standpoint of pure aesthetics, even better would be the 1965 style. But, on the assumption that they will use the 1968 style, I have to say that, in this case, I would prefer the sleeveless jersey to the true vest that we see in the 1965 style. The "Oakland" wordmark is too long for the vest, as we can see in the original 1968 uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems that way. And it's just silly. Wouldn't it be easier to just say "we don't like brown and it's not coming back?" Even if the fans do want brown, I don't think they're going to stop going to games or boycott the team. Just rip that Band Aid off. Then they can...

They finally got a Padres script for the home uniform to match that nice San Diego font, and then they screwed it up by going back to the bow tie font... it just doesn’t make sense. Also, I wish there was a full script Padres on the Navy jersey rather than the SD. It just doesn’t feel like it fits with the rest ...pick a gosh darn look. While I want them to wear brown (or at least something that sets them apart a little), the other problem is that they keep tweaking things and despite their obsession with "boring" they keep throwing new variations of boring, diminishing the "boring" in all the wrong ways. There's really not a lot of positive to say about their look. They've always had an interlocking "SD." That's the best thing I can say (and I REALLY hate the little gap in the "D"). Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

The frustrating thing is that they come so close. The 2016 uniforms were as good as they are going to get in terms of design. Just replace blue with brown, and you're home free for the next 50 years.

The_Admiral Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 At first I thought the building in the Dodgers' patch was the elevator at Dodger Stadium, but then I realized it was a little too ornate for that.

WSU151 Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 The US Bank Tower is pretty famous for being in LA. The tall circular building in the skyline always tells me that's LA (you see this skyline in a bunch of commercials, movies, and even NFL RedZone studios). The Transamerica Pyramid is probably also more famous than LA's city hall, in terms of buildings on the West Coast. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Agree that US Bank Tower is more recognizable for LA. Saw it get blown up pretty good in Independence Day. Just for arguments sake I would say the Capitol Records building is more recognizable too. Had no idea what LA city hall looked like before 30 seconds ago Also agree that the most iconic building on the west coast is the Space Needle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Yeah, Golden Gate Bridge for the West Coast if bridges count, Space Needle if they don't, and Capitol Records for Los Angeles.

skip88 Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Awful 60 year patch for the Dodgers. Looks like the same person/company also did the 40 and 50 year patches. Obstructed view of number, blue/red band running through it. Palm trees. Same stuff over and over Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMU Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 Don’t hate on LA City Hall. The building was blown up in the original War of the Worlds. Coit Tower can’t claim that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
