You mean one of those long sleeve, thick\heavy, overly large ones from the mid 90’s? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaliforniaGlowin Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 On commentating on the XFL on CBS Sports Radio, the host said the team names sounded like they were created for a football video game. Good point, he ain't wrong. Quote Last updated 2/26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4_tattoos Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I like St. Louis in blue/white/blue tonight. Hope to see NY and DC switch up their pants some this season. 6 Quote Hotter Than July > Thriller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferdinand Cesarano Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 This is a good-looking league overall. St. Louis sets the standard, as Atlanta did in the AAF. We should remember that the XFL had some excellent looks last time around, as well, particularly in San Francisco, Las Vegas, and New York. Those are looks that could stand up next to the current league's best in St. Louis, Washington, and New York. Of course, the original league also had some awful uniforms; thankfully, the current league's worst uniforns (Dallas, Houston) don't come near the sartorial depths plumbed by Orlando and Memphis in the original XFL. But what is unfortunate is that the XFL will help to normalise further the scourge of monochrome, which will never not look wrong. Imagine how much better D.C. would look with white pants worn with the red jersey, or the Guardians with grey pants worn with the black jersey. So it's nice to see a game in which both teams are wearing uniforms with contrasting-coloured pants. St. Louis continues to shine as the class of the league; and the awkwardness of Houston's set is significantly mitigated by the grey pants. Another thing about Houston: their numbers are hard to read. The numbers should be reversed — white with a blue outline, rather than blue with a white outline.

DCarp1231 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Considering Defenders players have worn red base layer pants to mimic red socks, they can pull of the white/white/red to avoid the monochrome look. As far as the best uniforms? New York DC St. Louis Seattle Houston Dallas LA Tampa Bay Also, I love that the Roughnecks are doing what the Texans need to do: own the red.

Sykotyk Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Was it here that someone suggested that maybe the LA team was going to be the Wildfires and maybe that's how/why they're now the Wildcats. Purely speculation. But their logos and design and colors fit perfectly for that name. I don't think black, orange and red for Wildcats. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hide contents Where did you find those? I've been trying to contact the XFL for logo sheets or anything with the primary and secondary logos, but no luck. I really want to know the exact colors they are using and what all the secondary logos are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is their look so "fiery" and why is their name so bland (especially for a city like LA)? My thought is, early on in their design they were called the Wildfires, until they realized the sensitivities a little late and made an easy fix. Complete speculation though Wow thats something I hadnt thought of, but makes a ton of sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
