Braden Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 I was watching highlights of the Raptors-Cavs preseason game and I thought I noticed that the names on the backs were different. Take a look.This year:Last year:I think this team needs to scrap the whole uniform, maybe the whole organization, and start everything new.

See Red Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 I don't see any difference. I'd have to see a picture of Alston or Woods from last season.I agree, scrap the unis, if not the organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchie Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 Maybe we need to take this discussion in a general sports section, but:Why scrap the organization?Before judging them too harsh.Please consider their achievement in terms of fan base and bringing the sport to this "one pony show" hockey town...They've had some talent, but selling Toronto as a city including the climate, lesser interest from the fans (it's not hockey) to attention starving superstar is not an easy job...

BRice16 Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 It doesn't look very different to me. I say that while holding my Carter Nike Authentic from last year. If they changed, it was only a slight change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titanium Eagle Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 Yeah, the font is smaller than it used to be.There were also changes to the T'Wolves name font. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapshot Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 It looks like the font used for the name lettering went from a Futura/DinSchriften hybrid to Helvetica Compressed or Compacta, very similar to the Lakers & Mavericks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titanium Eagle Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 This season:http://cache.gettyimages.com/comp/51625777...9C30E9B9B114CE8Last season:http://cache.gettyimages.com/comp/3124678....D9FFB41BFDD2499It seems as if Reebok removed all name outlines on the T'Wolves jerseys. Good move. It looked too convoluted with all the outlines around the names. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon_Matrix Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 I would like the uniform to become blue, like the rest of the Toronto teams. Maybe the less retarded lookin unis might spark some life into the Craptors. When the Leafs loose, we are sad, when the Raps loose, we dont care.

STL FANATIC Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 This is how the Raptors should always look I agree, except with the script reading "Toronto" Except, the whole reason they got that jersey was to show themselves as Canada's team. Of course Toronto has more relation to Canada than Raptors, but by using Raptors instead of Toronto, they include all of canada and not just Toronto.

Yes I agree, but they did the same thing to their purple roads for the same reason... I want Toronto on SOMETHING Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceCap Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 This is how the Raptors should always look: same here. that is a wicked jersey. has anyone made up a white version in the red, black, and silver scheme? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAD! Posted November 4, 2004 Share Posted November 4, 2004 The font must have change. If you look at the Raptors store, you will see that the authentics have the new font. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
