So, has anybody tried to color swap the Jags' or Jets' uniforms to Bucs colors? I know we've suggested it for the Gridbirds' uniforms (at least for the Jags), but such simplicity might work here. Two-color numbers, simple sleeve details, and fairly plain pants would be a good minimalist reaction to the previous design. 32 minutes ago, Haz_Matt said: I'd be ok with something like this for the helmet It's painful.

Ridleylash Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 The Bucs need to scrap everything about the current look and aim to look closer to their 2000's set or the Bucco Bruce-era set. The problem with Nike is they seemingly cannot ever get the pewter right; so either minimize the use of it or just accept it's not working out with Nike and get rid of the color altogether. Doubling-down is what got the Bucs into this mess to begin with. Something like this helmet, with either Bucco Bruce or the flag logo, would be ideal for me. Maybe have a pewter face mask if we want to keep it around, but it's pretty obvious Nike is completely inept when it comes to making pewter work on actual jerseys.

Count me amongst those who "think the Jaguars went too far towards the plain". What the Jacksonville Jaguars "needed to do" in order to get their sartorial house back in order was THIS... No black jerseys, black pants, or black numbers. No mustard jerseys or pants. No unitards. No gradient helmets. No so-stripped-down-as-to-be-generic styling. Just THIS. The Jaguars sported their perfect look - one of the best ever in the history of the NFL - from 1998 through 2001. They should get back to it ASAP.

MDGP Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 1 hour ago, FormerLurker said: They don’t actually hold real shares. That’s the whole point. I mean, I was being glib, but... Sure they do. Just because cashing in on dividends is restricted to preferred stock or shareholders aren’t allowed to sell their stock at a certain time doesn’t mean they’re not real shareholders, it just means that they have common stock and agreed to a restrictive shareholders agreement. Neither of what you said claiming they aren’t real shareholders is all that uncommon, and there are perfectly reasonable reasons for both (mostly ensuring that they don’t lose control to an unwanted new owner i.e. sharks/corporate raiders. An NFL team especially wouldn’t want to risk that). Executives and board members of a corporation have a fiduciary duty to their shareholders. Acting however they want, especially when they straight up ask the shareholders the direction they want to go in is illegal (barring invocation of the business judgment rule). I've got a dribbble, check it out if you like my stuff; alternatively, if you hate my stuff, send it to your enemies to punish their insolence!

We have the same voting power a shareholder in pretty much any other publicly held company has. Do we have a say in football operations? No, but it's not like Apple shareholders have a say in the design of the iPhone 11 either. Would you like me to upload a copy of one of the yearly reports that shows what we'll be voting on? Or would you rather go on believing something that isn't true? Also, an Ann Frank "joke?" If you gotta go that low it might be time to hire a new writing staff.

tBBP Posted February 15, 2020 Author Share Posted February 15, 2020 Aww....and I was JUST getting ready to share my previous experience at Lambeau!!

Ridleylash Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 1 hour ago, IceCap said: Ok. Back to Bucs talk and how they're inevitably screw it up. They double down on pewter, as it becomes the main color with red, white and orange as accents, and keep the alarm clock font fully intact. Instead of either Bucco Bruce or the Super Bowl-era flag, they create a new logo that focuses on pewter over every other color that both sides of the debate hate for various reasons. The team defends it as being "the next step of the Buccaneers brand" when the fanbase begins absolutely gutting the new look online. In 5 years, they rebrand again to backpedal on the pewter overload, but, as is the Buccaneers' way, they still manage to the rebrand of the rebrand up; they keep the logo set that everybody hates and the NOB fonts everybody hates, but just remove the pewter; a marginal improvement that they then stick with for the next million years. It's both horrible and yet amusing that this doesn't even sound that farfetched to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Packers stock is nothing more than a useless souvenir, why is it that the team has only opened it up for purchase twice in the last 70 years? Seems to me that something as fake as you (incorrectly) think it is would be as easy to buy as a jersey or hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
