BBTV Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 They really should have put the roman numerals instead of years, then the "season year" vs "bowl year" wouldn't have mattered. I still don't think it's a good idea to have an official logo that references championships, as it could be a process to change it within an offseason (if that would even be allowed.) Same with the Islanders sleeves. I don't see either being an actual issue ever, but if they were a better team, it could be. 6 Quote "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

BBTV Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Also, I don't know how the majority of the fan base felt, but the few that I know really liked the Velveeta pants that they wore for a few seasons in the early 2010s. I know they could only be worn with the cabernet jersey now, but it would still have been nice for them to at least have the option, vs the monochrome-only looks. 5 Quote "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

They can still be worn with the white jersey. I won’t post the uniform I want them to take inspiration from as I’ve beaten it to death, but it’s still in the realm of possibility to do white/gold with burgundy socks velveeta with cabernet socks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jws008 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Personally, I think that using "Velveeta" as a description for their yellow is off the mark -- there's IMHO not enough orange in the new color, which makes this an insult to Kraft's fine (sort of) cheese product. (Yes, for those who don't get it; I'm joking) (Maybe...) 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustForFun Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Classic Cheddar cheese is white. That yellow color is vegetable dye they add for people who associate all cheese with the Velveeta color. So their colors are Cabernet, classic cheddar, and modern cheddar. And black. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cabernet is very specific... maybe you should be equally specific with the name of the cheese... It's a real missed opportunity if we don't call it Dzingas. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DG_ThenNowForever Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 You can find it on your own, but Washington DT Jonathan Allen had a fun twitter experience that is more or less in line with continued self-owns from the Washington Football Commanders experience. 4 Quote 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Isles can at least get away with the patch being a reference to the dynasty and not just counting their championships overall, so there's that. I dunno what the hell Washington does if (god forbid) they actually manage to win something of importance while Dan owns the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
