Galwegian Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 The Youngstown Steelhounds (CHL) wore these special jerseys this past Friday in honor of "Community Heroes Night." They're pretty awful:http://www.steelhounds.com/news/newspagedisplay.asp?ID=116Just for comparison, the Steelhounds' regular jerseys can be seen on the team shop website:http://www.steelhounds.com/shop/First post with links, I apologize in advance if they don't work.

Galwegian Posted January 18, 2006 Author Share Posted January 18, 2006 Yeah, I'm not crazy about the "Y-TOWN" script being right on the jerseys (it also says "HOUNDS" on the other side) or the rivets, but I do like the logos and the color scheme.

DG_ThenNowForever Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 A public service....Yes, yes indeed. Those are atrocious. How come the people that like to wrap themselves in the American flag do so in the most garish and unappealing way?By the way, what the hell is a "Steelhound"? 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...

Galwegian Posted January 18, 2006 Author Share Posted January 18, 2006 The "steel" part of the name is for local flavor. Youngstown, which is right between Cleveland and Pittsburgh, has a rich heritage in the steel industry. The "hound" part is anyone's guess. One possibility is that the whole name "SteelHounds" is meant to be some sort of compromise between the Steelers and the Browns (Dawgs), as Youngstown is split about 50/50 between Pittsburgh and Cleveland fans. Also, it sort of rhymes with Youngstown.Oddly enough, the name of the area's local NYPL baseball team, the Mahoning Valley Scrappers, also pays tribute to the steel industry ("scrapper" was one of the jobs in the mills), and also features a dog head in the logo. The logo is on Chris's main site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
