Mevins31 Posted November 16, 2012 Author Share Posted November 16, 2012 according to @Panthers official twitter, they are quiet on word over which pants set they'll wear this sunday at home after originally stating they would wear silver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOldRoman Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Well, I guess that means the team gave in to players' requests to wear the "kewl" black pants again. That's a shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mevins31 Posted November 16, 2012 Author Share Posted November 16, 2012 They definitely should not be letting the inmates run that asylum. Especially not those inmates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCap Posted November 17, 2012 Share Posted November 17, 2012 So which should run the asylum then?The owner? The coaching staff? The GM?Players don't have the connection to teams they play for that they did decades ago. In the era of free agency a team is just a company to work for. Which is fine. Not criticizing that mentality at all.Still, it means that players shouldn't have much of a say in terms of a team's brand and identity. They're probably going to be gone in a few years anyway. What do they care about a team's long-term brand and identity? So no, they shouldn't run the asylum, and they shouldn't have a say in how the uniform is put together.

FiddySicks Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 I have never liked the look of any uniform that uses 3 different colors for each part of the uniform. Either have the helmet match the jersey or the pants. You could also have the pants match the jersey but that only looks good with white jersey and pants.We've got a few posters on here who've said this, which always surprises me. What about the Browns in orange/brown/white, the Bengals in orange/black/white, the Broncos in blue/orange/white, etc? For that matter, the Steelers road? The Rams and Redskins road when they wear their gold pants? The Giants road? That's a lot of nice looking uniforms (well... excluding the Bengals).For me, three different colors is OK as long as either the pants or the jersey is white. Three different non-white colors or white helmet over dark/dark (Titans... ick) is out of the question.I'm certainly one of those posters. Football uniforms that have three different colors always look worse to me than those that have a match on at least two of the equipment items (and shoes don't count here IMO). Sure there are a few exceptions, but they're rare. And of all of those examples you posted above, the only one that looks decent to me is the Browns. Road options get a bit more of a pass too as teams are only allowed to wear white on the road. Sometimes this works, such as with the Giants (I HATE the Redskins road look with gold pants). And the absolute Worst look around is when you have three different colors and the helmet is the lightest part of the set, ala titans, Chargers throwback look with white helmets, powder jerseys, and gold pants. Just awful. 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...

I wish they would have won to cement them in that uniform.... Kind of worried they'll go back to the black. That said I think the silver is always in play because of the helmet and the black is a two times a year type thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESPN always seems to be slightly behind the times with logo changes. The Panthers and Seahawks logos are inconsistent throughout the site. I've seen both the new logos and the old logos and there seems to be no rhyme or reason to why they use them. fouhy12's NFL Concepts 2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEWJ Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Man the Panthers are so close to having one of the greatest modern-classics. The only things that bug me are the pointless white pants and the striping on the helmet.Use the silver pants for all sets and they'd look fine, black pants as an alternate.Just reverse the helmet stripe colors so they'd match the pants.

Other than that though, it's always been a great look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 Yes, Jason is a fantastic logo and I wish he was still on the helmets/shoulders ( http://bigmouthsports.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/x-doug-flutie-14-september-2010.jpg ), but ESPN has to know better than that.

Nachos Rule Your Soul Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 I never liked how the helmet striping (blue surrounding black over silver) doesn't match the pants (black surrounding blue over silver). If they can fix that inconsistency, they're golden.
