GrayJ12 Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 I don't know if this is an unpopular opinion, but I would love for the oversized O'Brien trophy to come back in center court for the NBA Finals. Maybe it's because the opulence of the branding has been basically nonexistent for the past few years, but I feel like these special made courts (and the patches on the uniforms) adds to the importance of the event. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They stripped putting decals on the courts because they were too slippery and players were getting injured. That’s partly why they switched to cgi logos (putting sponsors there being the other) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bomba Tomba Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 WFWS is just as bad as BFBS Teams should start straying away from the use of white as a "light" uniform If it is part of the team's color scheme, no problem If not, then there should be nothing wrong with using something that ACTUALLY is part of the scheme - whether it's yellow, gray, cream, even light blue 5 1 Quote If you read on the card you'll be cheating on your heart.

Ark Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 I used to hate the New Era logo on the side of baseball hats but I don't care anymore and if anything they make the hats more authentic. Every sports hat seems to have a logo like this now anyway. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted August 23, 2023 Share Posted August 23, 2023 4 hours ago, Ark said: they make the hats more authentic I don't understand this statement at all. A company logo on a hat makes it "authentic"... even though the hat is being worn in a major league game? Isn't that about as authentic as it gets? If anything, it takes away from it. I'm watching the Phillies. Their team is the product. But I'm seeing someone else's logo on their cap. There shouldn't be a totally unrelated logo interfering with the main product's logo, and it takes away some of the authenticity.

Bomba Tomba Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 Racing numbers with a leading 0 are bad and should not be used NASCAR for instance has a field of 40 cars, there are 100 numbers from 0-99, and numbers don't get retired. So running out of numbers is not an excuse Besides, it's unnatural. No one says "I have 03 cats" or "My daughter turns 08 next week" 4 1 Quote If you read on the card you'll be cheating on your heart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So running out of numbers is not an excuse Besides, it's unnatural. No one says "I have 03 cats" or "My daughter turns 08 next week" My dad was a racer and always used 0 when possible. A lot of guys who race on short tracks are in multiple leagues, which makes having a unique number difficult at times. We kept a set of temporary numbers he could affix to his zero when a more senior guy also had zero. 10, 20, 30, etc. were all quite common, so he'd often go 02, 03, etc. (00 and 01 were also pretty common... especially in the Dukes of Hazzard days). I can't say I would have blamed him if he decided to make one of his temporary numbers his permanent one after a big win. Then when he made it to NASCAR (Indy in my dad's case) kept it to pay tribute to his roots. It's better than the alternative, which is affixing a letter (27x, 49y, etc.) which I've never liked.

Bomba Tomba Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 Still, with 39 other competitors occupying 39 other numbers, that's still at most 61 numbers to choose from without having to resort to the doofy looking 01, 02 etc. I could always "pay tribute" in another way, like replicating the paintjob or even just the car color or number font 1 Quote If you read on the card you'll be cheating on your heart.

sky1324 Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 I get it in weekly short track or dirt track scenes, but in NASCAR, things are structured enough to ensure that teams won't need a 0#. With 0-99 available, there's no need for those extra 10. 1 Quote the user formerly known as cdclt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bomba Tomba Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 Still nope, sorry If they really wanted that 7 they should've done all they could to acquire it, or settled with like 77 or 70 or just about anything else Quote If you read on the card you'll be cheating on your heart.

There was no way to acquire then, given it was sponsored by a Jack Daniels competitor. I do agree that they should've gone for 70 or 77, as while 77 was being run (part-time at this point I think) by Penske, 70 was open.

MilSox Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 This is the best logo the Bucks have ever had. In fact I've realized I like it even more than the OG Bango. It has a 60s/70s vibe that's perfect for them and it's a shame they don't utilize it more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does make a logical inclusion of blue, though. I don't care if you 'have to be from here' to know why it is where it is 1 Quote It's where I sit.
