Magnum Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Trim would have been better. It's something about the red birds on top all that gold ... seems off to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Looks like the Giants started a new trend with the gold. Not silly outlines. FULL ON BLING!!! Only because they already use gold outline on their regular uniforms. They pretty much had to go this route for it to be noticeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 someone had the suggestion a few years ago that the Phillies should have used gold stars instead of an outline. I think that would have been a fantastic idea. "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

CDixonDesign Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I am all in favor of the Gold Outline, simply because it keeps the team identity and colors intact, while still highlighting them. Of course that wouldn't be feasible with all teams, especially those with colors in close proximity to the gold (i.e. Orange, Athletic Gold, etc.) The cardinals missed an opportunity with the great looking contrast with Red and Gold. Of course it's going to be along the same lines as the Red Sox in 08', but if it's not broken, don't fix it, and keep the trend going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 An update of the 1927 throwback would have been great. Just for the opening series though.Lose the pinstripes. Use the current single bird on the bat logo. WORLD CHAMPIONS circling it. Would have been fantastic.

STL FANATIC Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 The on-field/authentic jerseys don't look so bad actually. I still think the numbers are silly, but the jersey looks pretty good. I forget what it's called, but the Cardinals don't just use the regular flat material for their logo embroidering. It's a raised twill or something or other. And that texture seems to darken the gold and it looks pretty decent.Still only like it for a one game or series thing, though.

FiddySicks Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I don't really get the hate for these. They don't look completely awesome, but it's only for one game and it is an honor, after all.

FiddySicks Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 I was actually wondering if they were going to wear them for the whole series, but just assumed it was just for the ring ceremony game, like the Giants did last year.BTW, the Cards did get their rings today, right? I can't wait to see them. On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaytonBlue Posted April 14, 2012 Share Posted April 14, 2012 No, the rings are Saturday. Today was the banners. I think they split it up to have more promo items for more fans. Also, their opening day ceremony was 45 minutes without the rings (HOFers, players on trucks, 4 commissioner trophies on display, banners, etc.). And I hope that world series champions patch comes off at some point (I'd say May 1st). It will look lame if we're 10 games under .500 in July with that patch still on the sleeve (obviously hoping that doesn't happen!).
