Sodboy13 Posted March 1, 2008 Author Share Posted March 1, 2008 YES!!!!! Los Angeles went back to their old serifed numbers. I just saw the highlights on ESPN!Ah, that's more like it. No screenprinting, either.Arizona is one of the only teams in ALL of football that pulls off the all-black uniforms perfectly.Strangely enough, another AFL team, Orlando, is one of the few other teams to make all-black look good. The era of the red "claw mark" numbers was the best in my book.Also, a note from this afternoon: Georgia's jerseys now have a completely different block number font on the shoulders than the front and back. The shoulder numbers have nearly no serifs.

The shoulder numbers on the Force jerseys actually look like the block font used as vinyl iron-ons in many a T-shirt shop.

CubsFanBudMan Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 YES!!!!! Los Angeles went back to their old serifed numbers. I just saw the highlights on ESPN!Ah, that's more like it. No screenprinting, either.I didn't mind the block that much last year but the slight flare to these custom numbers is subtle enough that I welcome their return.Now, if only the Avengers lose the light blue jerseys. Those never worked for me with the red helmets, but it sounds like Arizona might give them some competition on the worst mix and match front.At any rate, I think the Avengers look pictured is solid.

walkerws Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 Saw video of the Rattlers new unis. They are ok in white. The shoulders still suck and the numbers looked weak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkerws Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 I'm disappointed that the Soul did not get their numbers back. Their fifth anniversary opatch is awkward and out of place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacker12 Posted March 3, 2008 Share Posted March 3, 2008 Yes, the Force does use Stahl's lettering for their jerseys. And, they do use the Falcons' numeric style for the number decals. In fact, the Force actually uses the Falcons' shells since they use the same color (Metallic Black). This is mainly because the Force and the Falcons train at the same facility in Flowery Branch, albeit in different parts. Also, it's good to see the Avengers back with the serifed font.And, I'm not to crazy about the Rattlers new look. The only reason I would be interested in them is because Lang Campbell is with them. I had the pleasure of being around him when he was with the Falcons this training camp. He is a geniune, down-to-earth, supernice guy. I was not glad whenever he was cut. Ben Nelson, now with the Colorado Crush, is another one of my favorites. He was great as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sec19Row53 Posted March 5, 2008 Share Posted March 5, 2008 The Dragons appear to have gone back to a previous version of their logo. The black "filler" that was between the jaw and tail/body is gone. It's where I sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The black "filler" that was between the jaw and tail/body is gone.That filler was there last season because the Dragons originally intended to switch to a black helmet. They decided to stick with the reddish-orange shells at the last moment, and were left with decals designed for a black background.

Had a bead on some tickets, but then forgot about the auction. I'm hoping to make it to the Saturday night game against Colorado on the 22nd, and hopefully some Monday night games too. (I'm working a boatload of Sunday OT lately.) If you're planning to make it down here for any more games, let me know.

Brian in Boston Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Anyone know what this patch is on the shoulder of the Soul?Fifth Anniversary patch. It's a large Roman Numeral V, with the phrase "Your Team YoUnited" superimposed over it. The "o" in "YoUnited" is the Soul football logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick 1733 Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Anyone notice how the names on the back of the Soul unis are graphite outlined in light blue? Which makes it look funny close up, like they accidentally make the letters too big. MLB, NBA, NFL & NHL Font Packs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
