BeerGuyJordan Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 i hate the use of alternate jerseys in sports.... except for baseball. with 162 games you need to switch it up occasionallyI get where you're coming from, but I disagree where hockey and basketball are concerned, 82 is plenty. Especially since it has been used as a pilot program for new primary designs.

WavePunter Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 I agree.. I'm a huge fan of alternates, but in moderation.. The NFL (for the most part) has it right.. Rules that limit the use but still give some leeway is a good system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 So if someone dislikes how a jersey looks, it's because they're not a "true fan" of a sport? There's my unpopular opinion... I think it's possible to enjoy a sport where you like unpopular jerseys and logos.I prefer that hockey uniforms aren't designed to promote NBA teams.

chcarlson23 Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Their red uniforms are just awful.They were decent as alternates, but the whole faux-piping and lack of a tail stripe made it worse.And I still don't know why the Wild ditched their green jersey in 07'. Does anybody know the story or reason why? Quote "And those who know Your Name put their trust in You, for You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You."

The_Admiral Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 The white pants are the ones they don't need. They need to go back to the burgundy pants with white jerseys and socks for road games.

Quillz Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Is it an unpopular opinion to think the Phillies looked best during the 70s-80s in their maroon and white jerseys? I especially liked the "P" logo, and maroon isn't a color seen anywhere else in the MLB right now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should have used the new park as a reason to go from bright red back to maroon. Colored pants look good in baseball. For alternates.I'd like to see Pittsburgh wear yellow pants with black jerseys but other than that I don't think I want to see pants in anything but white or grey.

I don't know...Yeah, I'm not big on powder blue roads, especially for teams that aren't really "blue" like the Phillies. But the more I look at their current identity, the more I feel it's just rather bland. The "P yin-yang" or "P-ball" logo, whatever you want to call it, still looks pretty good today and was a cool identity to brand around. And the red they have on their current jerseys just seems like a generic red that many other teams use. But no one before or since has used maroon, and the Phillies could have owned it the way the A's own green. At this point, doubt it will ever make a comeback, but it would sure be nice. Although I guess they felt those jerseys looked a bit too much like the Reds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TreFiftiSS Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I can't stand when a team wears a modern uniform from the neck down, yet stays with a traditional helmet stripe on the helmet. Am I the only one who doesn't like this? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
