Xist2inspire Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 The Miami Dolphins current look is an upgrade over their previous one. The dolphin with the helmet was goofy looking. I can agree with this. The classic Dolphin look gets a lot of love because it was around so long and grew on everyone because it has basically been a staple of the NFL for as long as the majority of people can remember. But toning down the orange, brightening up the aqua/teal, focusing more on the clean white and teal look, and modernizing the dolphin are all positive changes.I really like the Dolphins' update, but I can't agree with that at all. They definitely should've used Orange more. At the very least, they could've used it to break up the Aqua/Dark Blue, which blends horribly on the white jerseys and pants. And while I think moving away from the helmeted dolphin was a good idea, I'm baffled as to why they decided not to use the classic "dolphin leaping" shape in order to keep a link to the past.

I like it. I just don't love the orange so much when its stuck with the teal. I myself enjoy the clean teal and white look and I love that that has been emphasized. All personal opinions of course.

BigBubba Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I must be the only one who doesn't like these. Yeah, the primary jerseys aren't great, but this is incredibly dated and should not become the permanent jersey.Those weren't very good, but pretty much anything's better than the Edgified crap they wear now.

Dynasty Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 It took me a while to get use to Miami's new logo as I grew up watching them with their old logo and it was hard for me to move on from it. The new uniforms are definitely an upgrade, I will say that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRed618 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I like the Yankees' BP cap with the gray bill. A little variety every now and then is not going to ruin their precious "traditions." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanMcD29 Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I like these:It's a downgrade from what they had pre-edge and nowhere near as good as they have now, but I liked the idea of an NHL team trying the collegiate route with their jerseys. Of course, they screwed up the home jersey when the Edge system first came out with too much black and not enough green, so that kinda made that set D.O.A. even with the alternate/eventual away to try and save things a bit.

ICTknight Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 I like the Yankees' BP cap with the gray bill. A little variety every now and then is not going to ruin their precious "traditions."This. I would love it if more teams changes things up just a little for a game or two a year. A perfect example in my mind would be Alabama's white helmets. They don't look bad and it would be a nice change for only one or two games per year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brave-Bird 08 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I may have posted this a few times before, but I don't think the Houston Rockets should ever sway from their current look...at least not for a long while. I think they're a modern classic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they're a modern classic. I'm not as sold on the current look as you (a slightly simplified version would be ideal), but I feel like I'm one of few who dislikes the original red and yellow set. The combo gives off a dated feel and I don't think it should return for Houston. Quote https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midway Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 The opinion: The Browns is a rather dumb nickname.The question: Can a case be made that the name does not technically hold up for the same reasons the Dallas Lone Stars name does not?

Unocal Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 If the Islanders had used this 1997-98 style uni originally in 1995 without the Gorton's Fisherman logo in the middle, it would have been very well received and lasted a few years longer.
