But some people claimed (in my opinion baselessly) that this logo resembled a swastika. It is to the Las Vegas team's credit that it came up with such a good one so quickly to replace this. The original Outlaw logo was ditched because some people felt it looked like a Star of David. The Xtreme logo was the one that some thought looked like a swastika...to me it looked like a weird double boomerang. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the head up, when those 2 teams play each other, nothing more than decals are going to set them apart. Idiocy on the league's behalf.

The decals ARE there, so pretending they aren’t just for the sake of argument is pointless 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, right! Thanks for the correction. That is a pretty silly comparison. (That much I got right.) Though I can see the point that it looked too much like the Louis Vuitton logo, as @rjrrzube suggested. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And in a league of 32 teams, there will inevitably be a certain amount of overlap. But in an 8-team league? With centralized ownership? There’s no excuse for that. 4 Quote The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC: Red helmet, red jersey, white pants, red socks NY: Black helmet, black jersey, grey pants, black socks TBY: Lime helmet, lime jersey, white pants, lime socks (with darker green & yellow stripes/piping) STL: Royal helmet, royal jersey, silver pants, royal socks (with some navy piping/stripes) DAL: Sky helmet, Sky jersey, white pants, black socks (with black and red stripes/piping) HOU: Silver helmet, red jersey, silver pants, red socks (with royal/navy blue) SEA: White helmet, green jersey, white pants, green socks (with orange & navy) LA: Black helmet, orange jersey, white pants, black socks (with red & black piping) Not that hard. You could even go more extreme with some makeovers: DC: Keept the same NY: Just Black & Grey (matte, non-silver, like a granite grey) TBY: Keep the same STL: Keep the same DAL: Switch jersey to sky with black yoke HOU: make pants metallic silver not grey SEA: Change jersey main color to green, not navy LA: Change jcolors to Red, Black and Metallic Gold. Gold Helmet, red jersey, gold pants (Too SF 49er??) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pitt6pack Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Saw this image of a painted Vipers field rendered for the XFL commercial that aired on FOX last weekend: Lot's of interesting things in this image. Firstly though, I don't think this is what we would see for a Vipers field come game day, but maybe it shows some hope that the fields won't be XFL 2001 like (which had no team logos at all, just an XFL logo at midfield, and black endzones with XFL logos in the center). The image looks like it came from a Buccaneers game this year, since you can see the NFL 100 logos are still on the field in this image. And there's no way the XFL will be able to fill this size of stadium to capacity (although, in smaller stadiums, like in DC, they should be filling stadiums if they want a chance to make multiple years out of this league). I'd hope to see a bit more creativity for field designs out for the XFL this time around. Hopefully they took notes form the AAF when it comes to field design.

HOOVER Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Tampa’s stadium will look nothing like that, considering it’s mostly Red in real life. I still don’t get the color choices of this league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you say that Salt Lake had the worst when they could't even change the design? That's not their fault and to say that their field design was bad is not fair to the team. I'm sure had they been allowed to do something with the field, it would have been good. What fields are you talking about anyway? Honesty the worst of the bunch might have been Orlando, but that's only because their endzones were boring. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, this isn't the greatest design, but I'm not sure it's enough to just outright dismiss an entire league. Seems kinda harsh. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
