Sport Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 It's not as much of an improvement as I'd imagined...the middle photo shows it best because of the lighting but in some lighting it looks just as bad as the monochrome.I think the problem is that the socks are the same color as the pants, which has never looked good on any team in any color at any time. I don't think slate blue socks would look good, but they'd have been better than navy blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Six Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 You know what's wrong with the Eagles? The green. Not that it looks bad, but it doesn't fit the city. It's too pleasant of a color. Seeing Philly meatheads tailgating wearing pretty green hats and shirts just doesn't mesh well. They need orange and black like the Flyers, or plain red and blue like the Sixers. The Phillies' cream alternates don't work either, for the same reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cappital92 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 I've never thought of Midnight Green as pretty. I always thought it was more a grimier, grungier color (I also root for an NFC East team not named the Eagles, so maybe my choice of words is a little harsh.). For that reason, I've never seen why they needed to add black to it. Kelly Green and Black? I see it. Midnight and Kelly Green? Could be interesting. Midnight Green and Black? Too close to really work well together, IMO. Someone, anyone, needs to use Bronze. I've been thinking the Rockies or Raptors recently for some reason.

DustDevil61 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 A few tweaks and these are this is a great jerseys.Fixed. Those 1990s Rockets jerseys have a special place in uniform hell for me, but I never got the hate for the neon green Seahawks jerseys.This:is >this:Sure the teal needs to return, but their current logo looks better than the generic, personality-less fish of their first 18 years.Not a big fan of the abstract marlin in the current logo, but swap out the light blue with the original teal and minimize/remove the yellow and the Marlins would have perhaps one of my favorite color schemes in general (though less black, please). And yes, the M has a lot more character than the F ever did.

DCarp1231 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I find it cool when linebackers (College & NFL) wear numbers less than the usual 50-59 & 90-99... meaning 40-49 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan33 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 The current Marlins logo in the old colour palette would be ideal. Those colours are so garish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AHcreative Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I like non-traditional pants stripes (Bucs, Jags) and the Bucs shoulder yoke.There, I said it.The pant stripes need work, but I'll agree with you on the yokes. It's an element I welcome in the NFL. It adds some distinction to certain teams, teams that don't have the tradition of such organizations as the Packers, Bears, Raiders, Colts, etc. Ya know, teams that would never drastically change their uniforms.

Cosmic Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I don't mind the yoke, but the combination of the yoke and the helmet right next to each other is too much pewter congealed together in one place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burmy Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 This:is >this:Sure the teal needs to return, but their current logo looks better than the generic, personality-less fish of their first 18 years.I agree...two reasons I like the rebrand better than the original.1. The "Miami Marlins" name has history...much like the Baltimore Orioles, Milwaukee Brewers, San Diego Padres and Los Angeles Angels, it's been the traditional name for minor-league teams in the city.2. The brand and color scheme exude Miami's spirit. Would I want them for a Northeast or Midwest team? Of course not. But Miami ISN'T like these other cities...it's known for its neon lights, South Beach and party lifestyle. Much better brand than the pseudo-traditional design of the Tampa Bay Rays.

The_Admiral Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I love the Marlins' logo itself, I just would have fine-tuned the color scheme to include some green and a second shade of orange (red-orange, creamsicle). A logo based on Miami looks wrong without any green. There's so much greenery! You have to have green.

Absolutely. The Bucs yoke isn't perfect, especially in the back, I'll admit that. I would've hoped for one closer to the Titans. The stripes aren't the greatest, but any triple-stripe would've been way out of place here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnWis97 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I like the silhouette marlin. But I wonder, why do I not see this labeled as "soulless" as is so often done with the Dolphins? (I like the dolphins logo so I don't feel any fit this bill) Quote Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."
