GrayJ12 Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 I think the Pirates adding red as a tertiary color in the 1990s was a good call. Yes, it's nice to have all of Pittsburgh's teams to have the same colors, but this helped the Pirates stand out. 4 1 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCarp1231 Posted April 4 Share Posted April 4 lol no one actually says “ex-eye-eye”. Roman numerals are a thing and you’re just nitpicking. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both of those uniforms are from the 70s and 80s (the Sox' set being a throwback), and they reflect the style of the era, which paired best with and was thus most often paired with pullovers. It works for those teams. However, if you took the buttons off the Yankees' pinstripes or the Tigers' home set, it would just look cheap. In short, what we consider to be timeless and retro typically does not look good in pullover form, while modern-retro (such as those two above) or modern uniforms rock the pullover look really well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZapRowsdower8 Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 The kachina jersey, while beautiful up close, is a dark, muddy mess during normal TV game angles and it probably needed to be reworked before returning. Oh well, don’t have to worry about that anymore. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrayJ12 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 I don't see the whole point of the argument for the recent revival of the Oilers color scheme/vibe for the Texans and the Titans. Yes, both teams have valid claims, and it is part of both of their histories (to an extent). It would be easier if both teams just laid off the claims. I feel like we might be focusing too much on the past. The era of the Oilers is done and finished. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCarp1231 Posted April 16 Share Posted April 16 I didn’t mind the previous Jets set. They just did stupid things with it. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sky1324 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 This is easily the best look the Jets have ever had. It's not perfect (logo, unnecessary black outlines, wordmark size) but the stripes are amazing and I love the helmet finish. Could've easily been a modern classic if they didn't hamstring themselves with stupid combos. 3 2 Quote the user formerly known as cdclt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lights Out Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 While I prefer the logos/wordmark they have now, I otherwise agree that those uniforms were better. The only issue was the helmet finish, which looked good in photos (like that one) but was an eyesore most of the time on TV... so of course that was the one thing the Jets didn't fix. 1 Quote POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chawls Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Both of these logos are superior to their previous iterations. 15 1 1 1 Quote Quote If you hadn't noticed, Chawls loves his wrestling, whether it be real life or sim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
