Gothamite Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 I think the 51 Alien would look real good in Graphite, blue and black....pretty much what it is now.Yeah, I think that was the joke.

Ron Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Now...if they were to decide to change the team name to the Syracuse Nationals, would they have to get clearance from the 76ers and/or the NBA?That's a very good point. If that were to happen, I'd bank on the Chiefs having to get clearance to change the name to "Nationals". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrejeff Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 The Bisons will be changing their logos and uniforms to coincide with the Mets which just adds to the travesty that this affiliation change has brought. It's been 20 years of not looking like our parent club; I just hope we don't play like them.How is this such a travesty? The Indians seem to be the ones that wanted to move. Also, this paves the way for blue to become a part of the Bisons identity again and offers a chance to get rid of their Christmas-like current set. If this brings back the late 80's-early 90's uniforms or some sort of updated take on a retro look, I'm all for it.What about the Indians? It should've been pretty obvious in my post that it was more disappointing for me that the Mets are coming in rather than the Indians leaving, even though I'm an Indians fan. Past Mets' IL teams have been some of the worst teams I've ever seen play. Granted they improved a lot in the PCL, but look at how much disarray the big team is in. It's gonna trickle down somehow.And literally looking like you parent team is a bad thing. The "Christmas" colors, as everyone calls them for some reason -- the green was all but gone the last two years except for a drop shadow on the home -- isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's trying to look like a team with a color identity crisis like the Mets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackjack76 Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I know there's a thread on AAA changes, but in honor of the 60+ page NBA and NHL threads, I wanted to lump all of MiLB into one neat package/thread.As we know, the following has been unveiled (this initial post will be updated after each unveiling):- Gwinnett Braves (unknown) - unveiled 6/3 (Link)- Oklahoma City RedHawks (Studio Simon) - unveiled 9/16 (Link)- Reno Aces (SME Branding) - unveiled 9/23 (Link)- Chattanooga Lookouts (unknown) - unveiled new uniforms/caps to honor Dodgers' affiliation (Link)- Fort Wayne TinCaps (unknown) - unveiled 10/2 (Link)The following changes have been confirmed:- Bowling Green - ???- Port Charlotte - ???- Buffalo Bisons - rumored to incorporate Mets' identityAnd then there's the avalanche of rumors, alternate logos and new caps standard for every MiLB offseason...and that's what this thread is all about.

TBGKon Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I've emailed the Port Charlotte organization and recieved word that something should be known in the next couple of weeks. Also, their current website is www.charlottecountybaseball.com, so I'm wondering if their location will be Charlotte County rather than Port Charlotte.I don't think they'll go this route, with it being a part Ripken/part Rays ownership, but as long as the team isn't the Rays I'll be happy.- Chattanooga Lookouts - unveiled new uniforms/caps to honor Dodgers' affiliation (http://www.lookouts.com/images/downloads/2009%20Lookouts.pdf)The red in it reminds me more of Cubs rather than Dodgers, they should have recolored the C with eyes blue.

jojotarantino Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I can tell you for a fact it is not the Sandbaggers. I cannot tell what it actually is since the GM, Mike Nutter has sworn me to secrecy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jojotarantino Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 'Baggers? Nutter?Nah, too easy.No that's not it. It isn't even close to Sandbaggers or just Baggers. It's completely different. I really can't say any more than that. I don't want a leak to come from me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
