You know the Jets do that too, right?

Not sure if this was posted, but I just look at the off season work outs for the Texans. And it looks like they got the shoulder logo patches IE Steelers. Here is the link and you decide:

PS don't see any updates on the NFL shop, maybe the Texans have lease out their jerseys to themselves?

I think that's happening until they get a sponsor.

Don't forget the Jets have that too on their actual unis...

The orthopedic doctor my mom's been seeing is the father of one of the Texans. The last time she had an appointment with him he told my mom that some porn company had signed on as their sponsor. I'm not sure what happened with that though. Maybe they got the axe at the last second.

Not sure why, but that post just seems extremely random and have nothing to do with the thread (even though it does).

Not quite. Zero Tolerance sent out a press release and made overtures towards the Texans about being a sponsor, but it never got beyond ZT sending out a press release. At no point did the Texans sign on with a porn company. They didn't even consider it.

This is how urban legends get started...

Go Astros!

Go Texans!

Go Rockets!

Go Javelinas!

Thanks for clarifying that. My mom told me how her doctor said that and I was definitely a little skeptical after hearing it. I didn't really think there was any way it could be true and of course it turns out it isn't. I suppose I'm glad I at least have an explanation for that wild rumor now, though.

And just in case anyone happened to be wondering, Tim Bulman is the son of my mom's doctor.

This porn company wouldn't be Real Hidden Video would it? Oh wait thats patriots sponser. my bad. I'm leaning towards Fat Dog Productions for the Texans.

The Texans didn't copy anyone. The league started allowing teams to attatch sponsor logos to practice jerseys this year and a number of teams are taking advantage of it. The Texans wear their logo on their practice jersey so sponsors can see how visible their logo could be if they bought that space.

The adult film company was called "Zero Tolerance" and the Texans immediatly rejected their offer to become a sponsor. They wanted to purchase the ad space on the practice jersey.

Leaving aside the issue of whether they'll go with this on their game jerseys, I think these patches are a great idea IF they use a secondary logo that doesn't appear somewhere else on the uniform. It's goofy to put your helmet logo there. As an example, I was never a fan of the Saints' "state" logo but felt it was a fine addition to their 2006 unis.

Of course, the small fdl on it makes SEVEN fdls on this uni. Good grief. B)

The whole "shoulder patch" reminds me of soccer uniforms where the central (and largest) portion of the jersey is covered by an ad, while the actual logo takes up space on the shoulder.

The Sparks of the WNBA have started to do this, as well. At first I hated it, but so long as the ad is tastefully placed, it's not too bad.

Along the same lines, the Seahawks should go with these guys as their sponsor.

And, by my count, at least five different golds...? :wacko:

(And that's assuming both the sleeve and chest patches are the same gold.)
