TimEOBrien Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 anybody want to chip in on a copy of spellcheck for Nike?I'm not a Houston fan and don't know the story behind it, but I think they meant to spell it that way. I believe I've seen it spelled that way on other Houston gear.Correction: Nevermind. I was incorrect. The other shirts I've seen with that phrase spelled whose correctly.Without a frame of reference, I thought it was for Indiana. Play on "HOOSIER."That would be this one...Nope. Still has a W. And IU is an Adidas team. And there's blue on that shirt. And we're not stupid enough to let that happen.I think it's Navy's.TCU did something very similar this year. May even be the same company. I know TCU has used a company in Arkansas to print tickets in the past.These were sent from Arkansas (I think that's what my dad told me... Maybe it was West Virginia... can't remember).

waltere Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Piggybacking off the Uni Watch season preview, did this one slip through the cracks? I don't recall seeing it posted. I like the elimination of the double outlines and the newer font. Still need to figure out the shoulder stripes.Those helmets seem like a shinier gold than usual...Am I seeing things?I would assume it's just down to the indoor lighting 1 hour ago, BringBackTheVet said: sorry sweetie, but I don't suck minor-league d CCSLC Post of the day September 3rd 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lahaye7 Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 seriously WTF happened to UCLA? They were well dressed and a strong program. Piggybacking off the Uni Watch season preview, did this one slip through the cracks? I don't recall seeing it posted. I like the elimination of the double outlines and the newer font. Still need to figure out the shoulder stripes.Those shoulder stripes are atrocious!

I believe I've seen it spelled that way on other Houston gear.Correction: Nevermind. I was incorrect. The other shirts I've seen with that phrase spelled whose correctly.It's a chant done by the fans at our games. One side of the stadium says "Whooooooose house?", the other side responds with "Coooooooogs house!"The spelling on the shirt was an attempt by Nike to mimic the way the first word is drawn out when said out loud. Great stuff when heard in person; on a shirt...not so much.You will all no doubt be delighted to learn that this year's versions have been spellchecked.

andrewharrington Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Still such a horrible disservice to not have the numerals similar to the throwback ones they have worn in the past:Yeah I'd rather see UCLA go back to this font rather than the font they introduced for this year. That new font is pretty terrible.Block numerals are pretty terrible now? I don't know if I'll ever understand this place.Ok, so my family has gotten our Northwestern season tickets for the upcoming season, and rather than just sending out the tickets as they've done in decades past, they sent out a customized "handbook"It's a really well done, really in depth package that just shows the new level of commitment AD Jim Phillips is providing the football program, and in turn the whole athletics department. Combine this with the pervasive ad campaign across the city and the $300-400M athletic facility improvements reportedly coming down the pipe, and I like where this program is headed.The instructions on how to be a sports fan seem a little redundant and the information on/for boosters is a bit strange, but the rest is pretty first class. (There were other pages but they were either redundant or ads, coupons...)All sensitive information, aside from my father's name, has been redacted.TCU did something very similar this year. May even be the same company. I know TCU has used a company in Arkansas to print tickets in the past.Yet this illustrates perfectly the difference between getting the little things right and wrong. Northwestern has made a big push to move its athletic dept. toward a new, common typeface over the past few years (the one that's on their new jerseys). Here comes the media guide, and it's nowhere to be seen. Contrast that with TCU, which used its new font liberally throughout its book, perfectly liking to its on-field visuals.Tennessee's jerseys for the NC State game...(Game will be Orange v.

That new font is pretty terrible.i agree that is a beautiful design but block numbers terrible?design is not all about aesthetics. style is the least important part of design. the reason they use the block numbers is probably because they dont want to look old and dated. they're trying to retain some classic elements everyone recognizes while still not looking completely out of place in 2012. ideas and communication. the 2 fonts "say" 2 totally different things GRAPHIC ARTIST BEHANCE / MEDIUM / DRIBBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
