Discussing upcoming uniform changes of a team is not "jacking" a thread. they stopped talking about the titans and texans (they didn't even talk about the uniforms, it was something about reddit.) only when i said "texan-titan jacked. " then they started to actually talk about uniforms. who pissed in your cheerio's? 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone in Colorado seen sporting "that goofy Cubs logo with a sun in it looking ass logo" is either tourist or is someone who just moved here from out-of-state. Locals steer clear of it these days, as it's basically the easy way to spot an outsider/poser. I moved to Denver in 2019 and I go out of my way to avoid Colorado flag merchandise. Hell, the Denver flag is a better design, but even that feels ripe for co-opting by transplants. I can see more points in favor of “Seal on a Bedsheet” these days. 1 Quote MLB: Project 32 (Complete), MLB: The Defunct Saga (Complete) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicago and San Francisco fans (and I assume former city residents) moving to Colorado and then crapping on "transplants" and the state flag seems pretty ironic. I was noting for my oldest son how at most Avalanche games, whenever a team like Boston, Chicago, NYR/NYI, etc. visit, the crowd of visiting fans is absurdly thick, because natives know we can sell the tickets to the new transplants for a mint and basically pay for the season ticket package in one game. It never goes the other way around, because Colorado people rarely leave for the perpetually grey, crime-infested, bung hole cities out east. In fact, my son is using this to build a portion of his senior thesis, tracing eastern city residential flight by tracking visiting jerseys at western venues. Could be an interesting bit of research. 1 1 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it because I don't live in Colorado anymore, but I have always loved the flag. It's so beautiful and the most iconic of all the state flags. I'm bummed I never grabbed a Rockies hat with that logo. 4 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just like Denver’s flag way more and I go out of my way to avoid looking like a “transplant” with tacky flag merch. I did the same when I lived in Milwaukee, as I never owned merch of the People’s Flag. “Flags as Merch” is how we get to the New Zealand flag referendum (which thankfully failed) and why I’m starting to find the bluntness of “Seal on a Bedsheet” refreshing. You can’t really make that bad design marketable. 1 Quote MLB: Project 32 (Complete), MLB: The Defunct Saga (Complete) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s still just a gold shield on a blue field like many other states. I definitely wouldn’t put it top 5 just because there’s an easter egg. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
