Concept - Montreall Alouettes' new alt

Recommended Posts

As for the logo like that--the Memphis Maddogs, Birmingham Barracudas & Toronto Argonauts all did that in the mid 90's CFL--see my links above...

The "What's an alouette?" seems to asked a lot lately...

Well, in terms of the sponsor being on the jerseys, I must say I don't care much for it, because it takes away the purity of the jersey itself, but I added it anyway, because most of the CFL teams are doing it, if not all 9 of them.

I believe the mid-90's style should come back, to a lesser extent, but in alternate form. The first time I saw this style on a WLAF (NFLE) jersey at a sports store, I gotta tell you I was hooked. My favourite was the Frankfurt Galaxy.

I like it better--but if you go with the front logo--I think it would look better if it cam up from the bottom of the jersey--still this is better--and as you say it's an alt--where--hey--you can take some liberties!

Four letters:  B, B, S and S...all at the same time!

ladies and gentlemen,

JamesCraven is a jackass, idiot, buffoon, and jerkass.....all at the same time!

yes, that was a personal attack. fluff yourself and get over it.

loser.

as for the alouettes alt.....good idea, but i echo U-Dub's sentiments about the font choice.

maybee im an idiot, but what the hell was B,B,S and S supposed to mean? is it a Canadian thing (no offense, just curious because different countries use different terms for different things, duh, and this is a Canadian based website and im from the USA)?

It would be ebst to ignore that post--just this explanation here--it is Craven's particular way of stating a negative superlative, or in other words, he didn't like it, beyond simple dislike...

there's a time to hijack and a time to lay low. in this situation, it's time to hijack. that and around thanksgiving i'd done a similar jersey

i was hooked by the WLAF jerseys too....mainly the Fire of course, but as much as it pains me to say, I briefly owned a Dragons home jersey from that time. As I found, a XXL shirt from Europe and a XXL shirt from the US are two different things :D Hey, it was in a thrift store, couldn't pass it up. i remember the whole thing was sublimated, aside from teh WLAF patch.

OK I changed the number font (using the Diamondbacks this time), enlarged the front numbers, lowered the crest logo, and added the stripes. Oh, and I shifted the front numbers to the left side.

get rid of the turkey beak thingy and change the colours--it could work--but not as good as Alouettesfan's

Ain't nothin' wrong with a sublimated front logo on a football jersey when it's done right. My opinion is that it works best with logos that are particularly tall or wide. The Claymores and the Argos come to mind, and your Als alt works really well. Anyone want to do it up as a lime-green or navy blue alt for the Seahawks?

I'm the proud owner of the '95 WLAF jerseys of the Dragons and Galaxy, as I try to collect the set. I say, if you're going to make an alternate jersey for one game a year, make it look good, but make it stand out.

For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head. Thats what it looks like to me. Also the flair around the tip of the beak is just flair that fleur de lis have sometimes source I am from NOLA.

can't really change the colors, what with those composing Va Tech's actual scheme. can't really get rid of the beak thing either, being it's supposed to be a turkey :D

Well I meant if you wanted to change it to an Alouettes concept, that's all--I understand it's a turkey (the bird that is) and was done for a different purpose.
