harperdc Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 just add sponsor. beautiful.nice tie-in between the Avs and Nuggets too, meshes cleanly with the traditional colors used by some English teams of claret and blue - West Ham, Aston Villa, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred T. Jane Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Why would you need a mock-up? It's just a plain maroon shirt.Redcurrent! [Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008 Attention: In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from your stay at the CCSLC, the reader is advised that the above post may contain large amounts of sarcasm, dry humour, or statements which should not be taken in any true sort of seriousness.

Alphabet Man Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Is it just me or the logos on the uniforms are way too low. I reckon they should be in the opposite position of the adidas logo. That and get rid of the wordmark from across the front and put a sponsor or leave it blank. twitter.com/thebrainofMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illinirox1 Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 I was in the camp opposed to adding any more red-based teams to the MLS, but seeing that Colorado went Claret and Blue makes me hpapy. Are there even any other teams in the US that use these colors? Nice job overall.That said, I hope the Fire kill them this year.

Sodboy13 Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 Absolutely gorgeous. Pretty much what we saw at the sneak preview a couple of months ago. This is all kinds of an upgrade from everything they've worn the past 11 years. Major thumbs-up for the collars. And I love the use of a change kit instead of a white road uni. Now, let's hope MLS doesn't crap these up by slapping black numbers on those light blue kits, because "our numbers only come in black and white."

beccarda Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 BBC Sport says that the Rapids are still contemplating a rebranding to Arsenal as part of the development deal recently signed. Now the only thing that remains unresolved is the resolution of the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and get rid of the wordmark from across the front and put a sponsor or leave it blank.Matt, I think just the opposite - the adidas logo is sitting wayyy up near the shoulder, sort of like Nike did with their total 90 kits form 2004-2005/06. The rapids logo and wordmark are appropriately place IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breakwood Posted February 10, 2007 Share Posted February 10, 2007 So they announce a deal to partner up with Arsenal, and the first thing they do is switch to West Ham's colours. Smooth move Colorado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
