The last thing I want for baseball is for them to get the "nuordr" treatment with weird designs and colored crap.Leave baseball aloneI don't want to change baseball and the "nuordr" treatment is what? I could care less about how baseball teams look,but the point of this topic was teams that look similar and you are making my point when I say that all baseball teams are similar.

goforbroke Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Baseball is always best when traditional but that doesn't mean all uniforms have to be identical. Just because there isn't a ton you can do with stripings patterns and overall template as you can with football/basketball there is still enough you can do to make the uniforms unique. For example: White uniform with Blue caps and primary color and Red trim, but is anyone confusing these 2 teams? \ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example: White uniform with Blue caps and primary color and Red trim, but is anyone confusing these 2 teams?\Agreed. While the Royals may have been a bit "too" inspired by the Dodgers, I don't think the grey Pirates look like the gray Twins look like the gray Astros look like the gray A's, etc.It's kind of a separate issue. Dodgers/Royals is a valid discussion, but the fact that baseball tradition is white vs. gray is no more relevant to this topic than the fact that all NFL teams have a white jersey. This tradition does not mean all teams look alike.If you don't like the tradition, that's fine, but a somewhat different topic. Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

goforbroke Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Here's another White uniform, royal blue primaty/cap color and red trim. If you put some effort you can make it different enought even with the same color scheme. That's why is rediculous that the Rays, Padres, and Yankees roads all look so similar.

pittsburghsports16 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 It's a year old picture of mine, so I'm forgetting about the new Blue Jays logo, two new Houston Astros logos, and probably a few more. Hockey also seems to have a huge obsession with roundels. The NFL probably has the more creative logos of the 4 major North American sports leagues.

These are the most serious offenders however: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted January 8, 2013 Author Share Posted January 8, 2013 To be fair, at least 4 of those look really good. And the others not bad.Ok maybe the Padres is bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I know its not the primary but if you include this it gets very rediculous: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyAnna Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Yeah. This has gone from "looks the same" to "hey, they both play sports".My thought as well after the Bears/Broncos and Ohio State/Giants comparisons. Was a great thread in the beginning.

lenardo Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 I think what this thread teaches us is that there isn't a whole lot you can do with a football jersey. They have the least interesting looks out of all other sports' jerseys.I'd argue that football has the most you can do. You have a helmet, decently large jersey, large pants, and socks. There is a ton of interesting things you can do with those. Plus I think football allows for the best looking modern designs. Baseball is simple, not much you can do with it. Hockey has the large sweater and socks, but little room for anything on the helmet or pants. And basketball has a small jersey and a lot of designs look weird on the shorts. Football simply has the most avenues for creativity on a uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great catch!They do need a change, but I am not the biggest fan of the sport and that is why I did not go into details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aawagner011 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 The issue of baseball roundels doesn't really bother me because even though those logos may be designated as primaries, I don't really view them as such. I usually see the logo on the cap as the primary mark of a team, even if it isn't assigned that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.
