max Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 yeah, maroon and grey. It seems like more and more teams are going with camouflage, so why not pay tribute to a school whose students think they're in the army? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect Zero Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 The Rangers have had too many issues in blue, and I know many fans who want to go back to red because that's the only time we ever won. The thing is though that people are now attached to the sleeveless uniforms and "new style." I have a feeling just a color switch is going on.Change the font to red and that's what I think is coming. Personally, I like the idea of a total color switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshawaggie Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 how about new colors all together. No more blue and red. @josh_j12 CFA- Fargo Bobcats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artmanc3po Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Aren't the red and blue likely to stay because of the Texas flag, which figures prominently in their look? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kewp80 Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 They should stay predominately blue. Going back to red, and especially those uniforms meadowlanders posted would look way too much like the Angles.That being said, I wouldn't mind a possible predominately red alt, just don't wear it when they play the Angles.Also, since we're on the topic of a Texas baseball club I must say that I am growing sick and tired or the Brick and Black scheme of the Astros. They need to go back to the Navy and Orange scheme or even the Navy and Gold scheme. Cardinals -- Rams -- Blues -- Tigers -- Liverpool Check out my music!

McCall Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 The Rangers have one of the best looks in baseball right now. Just tame the alternates and drop any black, and you have pure beauty. I love their shade of royal, too. Whenever you see them with those white uniforms, blue hats, and the pants hiked up showing off those solid royal blue socks, it doesn't get much better.Though, I do miss the days of the red uniforms, I just think their current blues are absolutely beautiful.Oh, and yes, the Astros need to change their colors.

Blue Falcon Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Great. Another red uniform.As opposed to another blue uniform? Either way, there's a severe lack of color creativity in baseball.I couldn't agree more. It just seems like the red uniforms all look alike more than the blue ones do.That's why I liked the Pirates in their 70s uniforms, with the mixes of black, yellow, and white jerseys and pants. Too many baseball teams just look too similar, and I agree there are too many blue or red uniforms. With 162+ games a year, baseball should at least consider more alts and let teams wear pants other than white or gray...let's add some color to the game!

ZapRowsdower8 Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Does anybody else ever view the Rangers as the "under the radar" team? Throughout their entire history they seem to have never been too bad or too good. The just go through the season and never make much noise. Maybe doing something really drastic on the uniform front will at least make them stand out more. Light blue and red? Royal and silver? I would like to see a blue cap with just a silver "tin star badge" logo. Yeah, I know the Astros already put a star on their caps, but it could look really nice if done right.

TruColor Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I love their shade of royal, too.I don't know...a lot of people here think that it looks like Purple...(It's the same Blue that the Devil Rays used before this upcoming season.)

It's seems a lot deeper and richer. Not dull and faded like some royal blues tend to look. At least that's how it looks to me.

JetsLuvver Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 I think the Rangers did a better job with red than the Angels with their red logo on red cap, red letters on red jersey pointless collar piping mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most Aggies I know are just normal college students.But getting back on track, I think there is very little the Rangers can do to change their uniforms. They are the "TEXAS" rangers and the Texas flag is red, white, and blue. Anything else just wouldn't fit IMHO. Plainsman Parking Lot.

BallWonk Posted February 20, 2008 Share Posted February 20, 2008 Since the Nolan Ryan no-hitter I saw featured him wearing a blue Rangers, cap, and since blue and red is distinctive in the AL-West whereas red is not, the Rangers simply must not switch back to dominant red. Now, introducing more red into their color scheme? Great idea. Getting rid of the black? Even better. But this team, in this division, needs blue to be the dominant color.And a big fat no on the script. Might as well just switch to a black stencil that just says "Baseball Team." I know, it's what they wore when we were all growing up and blah blah blah, but some of my favorite teams looked like crap back in the day too. That said, I do think the Rangers have room to improve their jersey script. I mean, I love their jersey scripts as-is, but the degree to which the Angels ripped them off is troubling. So an even more Western-themed jersey script would be in order. It could even me a move back to script, not block, letters. The end result should be a jersey that you could mistake for the cover of a Larry McMurtry novel. With a blue cap. Looking at some of Plan B's unused script ideas for the Casper Ghosts actually made me think, "This would be perfect for the Rangers." With just a little nudge toward a stronger "frontier" feel, the Rangers would become my team in the AL-West by virtue of uniform preference alone. [Obviously, tastes differ, and I don't mean for my opinions on the Rangers colors and script to be read as an attack on anybody's deeply felt preferences.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CS85 Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 I think they should just keep what they have. It's Texas colors, and they look better with that rich blue as the primary. Leave it be.
