IronChefShark Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Finally, Mexico hockey has a website.Mexicohockey.comand they have a new logo and new uniformsyou can see the jerseys right hereand of course I sound biased, but I like the design I made for them better although I must admit, these are much better than what they have worn in past years. They did the right thing by making green the primary color rather than red like they had in the past.say what you want about Mexico having an ice hockey team, but at least they didnt go Swift with thier uniforms US state flag concepts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfoster Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Some of their pages kick over to eTeamz content, but it's a start. I actually know one of their U20 players... Santiago Sierra plays Junior B for the San Antonio Diablos (7-12-19-28 in 26 games this season).Marc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jab8281965 Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I always thought you weren't supposed to touch the ice in Mexico - after all, the water there isn't safe. Are we going to have purified water used to make the ice in Mexico? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleujayone Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Team Mexico's sweater could have been better, but could have been far worse.What caught my eye was on the Team Mexico website featuring another team called "Lomas Verdes Falcons" who's uniform is a blatent rip-off of the AHL's Springfield Falcons logo. If they got permission to use it, I didn't see it anywhere. We all have our little faults. Mine's in California. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABCJr Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Ok, a joke and then some relatively serious discussion.First, please look at this picture:Why would the Mexican national team ever advertise that a piece of clothing was made in the USA? As a former resident of El Paso, Texas and frequent "border hopper," I'm all too familiar with the migration of textile jobs from the US side to just across the Rio Grande. Sorry, it would just be like China selling plastic toys that are "made in the USA."As for their design, I hope that their primary wordmark wasn't created in the hopes of being taken seriously. It looks like a souvenier T design that you haggle for on Juarez Avenue. Even with such a bright color scheme, they had an opportunity to use a lot of imagery common to Mexican heritage, most notably the snake/serpent.I love and respect Mexico and its history. The Aztecs, subsequent Spanish influences, etc. make for an opportunity to do something really innovative. Instead, they look like a souped-up over 40 co-ed softball team.

HurricaneDavid Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 What is with the stray fleck of green to the right of the X? And a green dot on the I instead of red? Sloppy.The entire web site appears to be in Spanish, yet the logo says "Ice Hockey Team" in English. That makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-kj Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Why would the Mexican national team ever advertise that a piece of clothing was made in the USA? Because that's put on there by CafePress, which is the site they're using to run the shop. Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

Puck Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 It isn't an issue of Mexico having citizens to play, but who would want to play on ice made from Mexican water? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon_Matrix Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I would assume Manny Fernandez will start in goal for their national team. Fernandez is from the west side of Toronto...I don't think just because his last name is "Fernandez" automatically means hes from Mexico or any other South American country Because Korbyn Is Colour Blind, My Signature Is Now Idiot Proof - Thanks Again Braden!!Go Leafs Go!

gueman Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Mexico has a hockey team?!?!?! After years of using leaf blowers they are now using hockey sticks. Seriously, how is Mexico having a hockey team any different than Israel or Thailand? Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys. P. J.

Lee. Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 Just a quick straw poll. If this was the Harlem team, how many black jokes would you guys be making instead of Mexican jokes?Thought so.That being said, it would be interesting to see precisely how to turn a team bus into a low rider.
