powersurge Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hormone Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 I'm too lazy to sift through all the old posts, but I like the upgrade, but the colors are sorta taken so I don't think it looks nice. About the db. It's creative, but isn't Diamondbacks one word? so why the db. Also, I don't care about long names that get shortend. Long names that is. Dbacks, Sonics, A's, Knicks. I wouldn't want to see Stros on a uniform any time soon. As for the Pirates...no Bucs. Their nickname doesn't need a nickname. It's alright to call them that, but I'd never want to see that on a jersey...and amen to them phasing out red. All the Bucco needs is a yellow/black do rag.

Tazz013 Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Mockup:DbacksKinda boring... Needs piping, front numbers, and/or cowbell.They have sleeve piping. The roads aren't the usual grey, either. Save the slugalo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 They have sleeve piping. The roads aren't the usual grey, either.Well, I hope they're not sand. I don't think this is the right shade to pull off what San Diego's done.Regardless, I am intrigued... Graphite?

SabreGuy Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 so... any word on that jays cap? That's what I'm in here for, too.Spill it, someone!(Sorry, that sounded rude. I'm just excited, being a cap guy and all.)

It's just a black hat with a stylized "T" from the away jersey wordmark without the bird on a black hat.

TBGKon Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 anyone care to spill who the teams are that are getting red alt jerseys, and can anyonne see if there is any change in the Rays uniforms. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artmanc3po Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 The Jays just don't get it if they're adding yet another non-blue cap. I hereby refuse to call them Blue Jays any longer till they come to their senses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkdesign Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 The Pirates alternate home is not so good. It is a red vest and the hat is the basic Pirates hat with a red bill. Yuck. Walk DesignTwitterDribbbleFacebookGoogle+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hereby refuse to call them Blue Jays any longer till they come to their senses. They aren't the "Blue Jays" any more, they are the "Jays". If you loook, they don't write blue jays on the jerseys anymore, just "Jays". They don't want Blue anymore, even though it makes no sense. I also think the fact that they are the only Canadien team it is stupid that they don't have any red in there either anymore. They are missing a golden opportunity. Not to mention they have a pretty decent baseball tradition, why leave it all behind? Walk DesignTwitterDribbbleFacebookGoogle+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artmanc3po Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 Although I often wear one, I have never understood the Reds' red cap with black bill. It just doesn't work for me the way most teams' two tone caps do. Braves' cap works. Indians cap works. Orioles cap works. A's cap has been around long enough, even it sort of works for me. Never really bought the Reds' red-crown, black-bill cap, same way I didn't like the Twins' red-crown, navy bill cap from pre-1987. I don't know, I really hoped the Reds would relegate black to a trim color only, including that bill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the Pirates were getting away from the wildly unnecessary addition of red... just another exhibit in the case against a franchise that doesn't know up from down.

Pirate Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 You guys are so funny complaining about orginality:Braves, Indians, Red Sox, Nationals, Cardinals and Twins all are navy, red and white.Rangers, Cubs, and Phillies are all blue, red and white. THere are two orange and Black teams, two blue and orange teams, two gray and blue teams, two all red teams, two predominately black teams (with pinstripes) it's ridiculous.The new D-Backs colors are excellent.

Burning River Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 I think the difference in why the word mark looks so odd is that it reads "D-backs". Not just 'Backs or Diamonds. Powersurge has a point. IF the name was shortened that way. But it would be like the other teams listed as:S-SonicsB-JaysW-Sox or ChiSoxR-Sox or BoSoxD-Rays..to me... that would be strange on a jersey just like D-backs looks strange.
