Survival79 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Coaches Upset Over Rule to Speed Up GameBy David Wharton, Times Staff WriterJuly 28, 2006The Bruins will wear new-look road uniforms. The old navy blue numbers have been replaced by a lighter shade of blue and will be outlined in gold and navy blue. The shoulder stripes will also be the lighter shade.

"The Raiders don't live there no mo" Pwned. But yeah, I know USC has some kickass uniforms. It's just that now that UCLA did 2 things (change to block numbering, and now make the numbering baby blue), and now their unis are #1 in not only LA, but in the NCAA, IMO.

Sodboy13 Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 Oooooh, that's nice. But with the 3-color numbers, don't the shoulder stripes seem a bit, well, incomplete? I feel like there should be thin navy stripes on either side of each powder blue stripe. I'm at work and away from even the most rudimentary of graphics programs - anyone wanna mock that up?

Fully agreed. The navy looks very unbalanced being only around the numbers and nowhere else on the jersey. Then again, there's no Carolina Blue on the helmets, either.I was hoping they'd go back to the rounded numbers they used a few years ago to pay homage to what they used in the '60s. They worked for UCLA and made their uniforms stand out. "Start spreading the news... They're leavin' today... Won't get to be a part of it... In old New York..."In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goober Goob Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 Meh. I don't really like it. I always liked the navy blue numbers and stripes on UCLA's road unis. I always liked the fact that UCLA's home and away unis featured different shades of blue. It was unique. The lighter blue w/ navy outline works on the home uni (w/ the navy blue script "Ucla" on the helmets), but not on the road whites. The navy now just looks like an afterthought on the road unis.Plus, I too liked the rounded numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cranium Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 I agree, I definitely liked the old numbers better. These look like something done at a sporting goods store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody worries about it with the home jersey since our eyes look at the powder blue. If you are looking for brand consistency, with basketball, then OK, I can take it. However as a stand alone, I prefer the older version with block numerals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also note both teams are in colored jerseys--a relic of the past. Visit my store on REDBUBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
