Pharos04 Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 A in.Vest a goner?Terra cota so much better term in AZ.AZ (almost).DB (not defensive back either). Any cryptology majors want to take a crack at this one? "A in" probably means that the A logo will still be the primary one on the caps"Vest a goner?" probably means that they'll be ditching the vest uniform and going with a traditional jersey style"Terra cota so much better term in AZ." probably means that they'll be calling the new red color Terra Cotta instead of Brick due to its ties into the desert and the Pueblos from the Southwest area.I have no clue about the other two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M59 Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 The Diamondbacks purple jerseys (at least the Russell ones) were beautiful, and I was sorry to see them go. Another case of a team with an alternate jersey that looked vastly better than their primarys.I'm hoping for the best (no more pinstriped vests / no more pinstriped roads), but I'm not holding my breath. This could be a step backwards for the Diamondbacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powersurge Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 I think its safe to say that the teal and purple craze of the 90's is officially over!It felt like just about every new team or uni change that came out in the 90's had either some variation of teal or purple in the color scheme.RockiesMarlinsD-BacksHornetsJaguarsMarinersSharksIslanders (Gorton's Fisherman Logo)Ravens (although I like there colors)......did I forget anyone?Good Riddance!

Bouj Posted September 1, 2006 Share Posted September 1, 2006 I think the Reds changes have a dedicated thread, but since this relates to 2007 MLB changes:Lukas confirmed this morning at Uniwatchblog that the Reds are getting new uniforms next year and ditching the black trim. He still hadn't gotten an answer on any return of navy though. Go Astros!Go Texans!Go Rockets!Go Javelinas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CubsFanBudMan Posted September 2, 2006 Author Share Posted September 2, 2006 So.... I've been away a few days. Wow. So it's the Diamondbacks. Looks like DAJackson7 and a few others called it early on in this thread, although the new owners' denials seemed to throw us off the scent. Makes sense, especially after reading about the Colangelo connection. I guess new owners trump recent world titles.... but at least some logos will keep a tie to the past.Another tip of the cap to TOG... he didn't lead us astray on any of these.Just a thought, but couldn't the cryptic message above about AZ and DB and "no PHX" suggest that the D modification talked about incorporates a B into it? Looks like it could be fairly easy with the snake's diamond-pattern. Same could be said for the A, although the report said it will stay the same.I prefer using the A to the D, but that A just doesn't pop off the purple cap. If they could improve that with the color switch, they should, but the copper on purple just didn't highlight the letter enough, IMO. In that respect, the D cap worked better, but it's probably more because it was on a black cap than the logo itself.I'm anxious to see the new look.

jtthasportfreak Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 I sincerly doubt that the Dodgers and Cubs will be adding names to the back of their jerseys. Well, maybe the Dodgers to their aways, but that's it. Frank McCourt has already announced the Dodgers will have the names on the backs of both the home and away jerseys next season...at the request of his wife. The announcement was in February. Not only that, but McCourt is also appealing to Vin Scully to put them on for next season when the Voice of the Dodgers, in his 57th season, signed on for '07 and '08.Also, if you're going to make jerseys without names on the back, at least make the numbers thicker, like the Yankees, Giants, Red Sox and Cubs have done. Before names ('72, '73?), Los Angeles had thicker numbers on the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
