CubsFanBudMan Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 This team has more to their history. Yeah, like losing! Thanks for addressing my point. And taking my quote out of context. Your two responses show that you don't really know much about the Cubs and were simply baiting, so I'll ignore your future replies about them.

If you want to start something there about the Cubs, I'd be glad to talk about the 10 pennants the franchise won 1906-1945. Or the 6 NL titles the club won pre-1901. That's all CFBM is asking be celebrated, as opposed to the '69 team. And I'm all for it.

Jungle Jim Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 The Reds running man has been running the wrong direction since they changed him in 1999. For years he ran to the right, now he runs to the left. It's awkward, especiall now that they've putting him over top of the "C" in the logo again.Same goes for the Bengals tiger head logo and the leaping tiger. They should be going to the right, just as the pictures and icons of helmets always should face that way. See, now I think having him run to the left is correct, because it's like standing at home plate and watching him run from 1st - 2nd or 2nd - 3rd. (Or, even more to the point, standing on the mound and watching him run all the bases. Good point! But, I still think these things need to run to the right, even though it's wrong baseball-wise in this case. The Bengals have no excuse, though.Has anyone noticed that one of the networks (NBC, I think) reverses the Bengals tiger head logo so that it's looking to the right? The JC Penney Christmas catalog did this last year, as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sacker12 Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 I am going to miss the old unis. However, about these new ones, I am in like with them. I like the d-snake and how that will look on the red cap. I don't like the db logo and I dispise the D-Backs on the home jersey. If you think Diamondbacks is too long of a nickname then just change it. This would be like "Phils" instead of Phillies, "SAWX" instead of Red Sox, "Bucs" instead of Pirates. Its rediculous. I'm not sure what the big deal is about shortening team names on jerseys. Its done all of the time and still looks fine.Supersonics - SonicsBlue Jays - JaysWhite Sox - SoxDevil Rays - RaysRed Sox - Patheticoops! just joking...seriously, I love Da Sawx!D-Backs is actually kind of cool. It would look dumb to have :D I A M O N D B A C K Son a jersey. It would damn near wrap around the front and back. the diamondbacks had something like that but it looked like this.... I actually have that road hat. I think that I will start wearing it more. Actually, I think that all the D-Backs needed to do was take out the purple. It would have looked fine with black, copper, and turquoise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcgd Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 Just a few things Cubs fans...He doesn't speak for all of us. Many of us Cardinals fans are well aware of the rich history the cubs have. Despite the lack of modern championships, they still brought us Ivy, "Lets Play Two," "Hey Hey," "Cubs win!," (hey some of us Cardinal fans know that "Hey Hey" is not a Harry Carey thing) and some of the best looking throwbacks out there (1908) Not to mention the previous part about the Pennants and NL championships.Viva El Birdos, the Phrase:Its not meant to be a direct Spanish phrase. Its meant to be Spanglish and it was created by Hall of Famer Orlando Cepeda. "El Birdos" is the nickname of the 1967 championship team (and also the 1968 team) given by Cepeda. So if you treat "El Birdos" as a name (because it is), Viva "El Birdos" would make sense.Viva El Birdos, the site:Its actually my favorite cardinals board with very knowledgeable, honest posters. They don't puff up the Cardinals like most others do, and they know that the most likely scenario this year is a Cardinals first round "Also played" The guy that runs it keeps a very tight ship and the nonsense cubs/cards bashing is kept to the MLB board. If you only visit it on a Cubs/Cards series, you'll see the trolls from both sides come out. But check it out on any other day, you'll be pleasantly surprised.That is all.

Puck Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 Original Posting in Arizona RepublicInternet leak gives early peek at new logoThe Arizona RepublicSept. 26, 2006 12:00 AMIn the age of the Internet, nothing stays under wraps for too long. Not even major league fashion.Take the Diamondbacks' new color scheme and logos, for example.Over the weekend somebody posted the Arizona page from Major League Baseball's Official 2007 Style Guide for Uniforms on a message board.Diamondbacks President Derrick Hall said it was a "bummer" that the information, due for a November release, was leaked.Maybe, but The Heat Index claims that the Sedona Red and black combination, with some different lettering, might be more popular than originally anticipated.Besides, purple and teal was so 2005.I read this in the paper this morning and this site automatically came to mind.

Puck Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 Everyone jokes about the colors being so similar, but its not that bad. the dodgers and royals are almost identical. as a matter of fact, when the astros and dbacks are side by side, a lot of you will se what i saw a few years back. the astros "brick" is actually a toned down nod to the orange of the rainbow days, and the black, being slightly lightened looks close to navy. if they were to change to one of the darker navy blues teams are using, most wouldnt even catch it. But the Dodgers and Royals play each other, what, every few years now? How often will the Astros play the Diamondba--I mean, D'Backs? Prior to this past season, the Royals and Dodgers played a lot in the preseason, and there wasn't much of a mixup there.Also, it's not like the DBacks and Astros are going to be wearing the same style unis, one will be home and one will still be away.

Surely if someone has access to the style guide for the Cincy/Arizona sheets, they know at least some of the other changes. As I mentioned before, I was KIDDING! I know the rich history the Cubs have. Heck, the Cubs-Cards Rivalry was one of the greatest in sports because it was a friendly rivalry, example, 1998 with McGwire and Sosa chasing Maris. When Darryl Kile died in his Chicago Hotel Room, the Cubs not only were willing to postpone the game, a VERY tearful Joe Girardi (who joined the Cards the next season, but never played due to injuries) addressed the fans and wish their deepest sympothies to his family and the Cardinals family, fans included.Where's the Love now, you might ask? Two words.....DUSTY BAKER. The guy started crap in San Fran and he did it in Chicago. May take awhile to get back to the condition it was in before, but if they got rid of him, this rivalry would probably start to become friendly again. Plus, he has just ruined your team, period. I know there has been absolutely crappy luck as far as injuries (I actually do feel bad about all those. Cubs are a better ballclub than what they usually have to field), Dusty has just done nothing. I sincerely hope they don't bring him back. For the Cubs sake. From a Cards fan. https://dribbble.com/MakaioCall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
