WavePunter Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 I don't like when people refer to oval helmet logos as rugby balls.. even if a particular team formerly used a football shape, their current is just an oval.. OFOS.. ovals can and do make good helmet logos, and that's a justifiable enough reason to use them.. I highly doubt anyone ever said "hey, I know our football shaped logo looks good, but it would make so much more sense if wet instead used a rugby ball shape" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince Harry Posted February 16, 2019 Share Posted February 16, 2019 The North Stars had a three year window where they looked decent from 1975-78, and every year outside of that their uniforms were poor or actively ugly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sky1324 Posted February 18, 2019 Share Posted February 18, 2019 I commented here a while ago, but I'm back for some more hot takes: MLB: The Florida Marlins are overrated. Teal/Gray/Black doesn't work for me. Plus, the teal is literally impossible to read on the gray without a black outline (as demonstrated perfectly on the primary logo). Not a huge fan of either the Marlins or Florida script, and I will never liked vest jerseys. I honestly think this new rebrand is the best the Marlins have ever looked. The biggest thing I would change is making the cap logo the primary, but other than that, it beats the Florida era by a mile. Orioles cartoon bird >>> realistic bird The Angels should go back to using Anaheim, and specifically the 2002-04 logo. It looks real nice. The Devil Rays don't actually look good. They have a good start (and Devil Rays beats "Rays of Light" any day), but the gradient isn't great (maybe if it was just purple to blue/green, no yellow) and dark green + dark blue looks ugly. NHL: Ducks > Mighty Ducks. I think the Ducks look great, and black and orange works wonderfully together. The cartoon throwback logos look awful, no matter what team they're used by. This goes for Pittsburgh, Buffalo, and the Islanders. To add onto the point above, Robo-Penguin > stupid cartoon skate-y bird. The name "Wild" isn't bad, but it's not great. MLS: DC United needs a new logo. Already. They've whiffed so many times. This is the best they've ever looked, but it still needs improving. The Union adding a gradient is stupid and they made their logo significantly worse. The Revolution logo is fine. Real Salt Lake is the dumbest name in sports. Ever. Sporting Kansas City is the second dumbest name in sports. NFL: The Cowboys' use of like four blues is really dumb and needs to stop. Tradition means nothing if that tradition is stupid. The biggest problem with the Bucs' current set the font. If the font gets fixed, they'd look fine. The Saints' all-black combo is really bad. Black over gold looks amazing, and they should dump the all-black forever. If the Panthers drop silver, they will have the best look in the NFL. Every combo not using silver looks beautiful, especially the blue over black look they debuted this year. NBA: The Timberwolves have the best logo in the NBA, with the Hornets at a close second. I really like a bunch of the City and Statement jerseys so far. Specifically the Heat City (and Earned) jerseys, the Utah City jersey, both Chicago City jerseys, the Charlotte Statement jersey (I have one!), and both Sacramento City jerseys. If it weren't for the Thunder, the Mavs would have the worst logo in the NBA. The Brooklyn Nets look great and black/white is a really underrated color scheme. 2 Quote the user formerly known as cdclt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clonewars2008 Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Not sure how popular this opinion is but the Winnipeg Blue Bombers 2012-15 away uniform was one of the best in the CFL as it being gold and not white added some character and colour to CFL games. Case in point the labour day game in 2007: vs the game in 2014: I think the 2014 one is the best even though right now the 2016-present looks good with the royal blue now being prominent: The gold based is just next level and looks good vs all teams as it's not just a generic white jersey but one with character. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly what they are, and while I don't mind "United" or "FC" as long as it's not overdone, Real only makes sense in Spanish (I think) and Sporting is just stupid. 3 Quote the user formerly known as cdclt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll grant you, most of the North Stars uniforms were basic enough to look like they came from a sports equipment catalog. That's something you can generally get away with when you have awesome and unique colors, but the black really muddied up the look. Ironically, I became a North Stars fan when they wore black. I started following hockey the last year they played for the Stanley Cup and I thought "North Stars" was the coolest name I'd ever heard of for a team. Their colors were still pretty close to the Packers too, which was definitely a plus. I'll even say (in hindsight) that pretty much all of the North Stars uniforms could have been executed better. But I don't think anything they ever wore crossed the line into questionable taste like, say... Cooperalls, Vancouver's "Flying V," and most 90s alternates. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you, the Bombers have looked real good for a while (away). Royal blue is much better than the navy, though. Love the current home ones. I think Hamilton is another team that could pull off going back to gold for away jerseys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be totally cool with them going to that royal shade full-time except I feel like it wouldn't provide enough contrast with the powder blue, and I don't want them dropping the powder blue. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCarp1231 Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 From the Cincinnati Reds Facebook page: First time I’ve ever seen this uniform, but I kinda like it. I think I like it for the simple fact that the number and name fits with the shape of the jersey vest. Also, what year is this from? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCarp1231 Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Two different sports, same state, same color scheme (relatively), same colored alternate jersey. I love the Patriots red alternate throwback uniforms, but hate the Red Sox red alternate jerseys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
