[BoBoBREWSKI]

Paul Lukas from ESPN is ranking the uniforms in pro sports. Looks like we are in the top 50.

So it's come to this.

I love our logo and unis. Classy, old school feel. Top 50 out of 200+ ain't bad.

I love our logo and unis. Classy, old school feel. Top 50 out of 200+ ain't bad.

The best part is, we have kept the same basic design and logo, just with updated tweaks. I wouldn't mind going back to any of our previous uniforms, or sticking with the ones we have. I don't think too many other teams can say that.

If the Lakers finish #1 in this I think I'll vomit.

They'll probably finish in the top 5, but I think the Boston Celtics will finish #1.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

We should ask Nike to design 512 different uniform combinations for us.

I wonder how Liquid Metal would look on a headband?

 

[Boob-No-More]

They'll probably finish in the top 5, but I think the Boston Celtics will finish #1.

Nah, I bet the Yankees win - classic pin stripes.

Hmm interesting, I was thinking about starting a new thread about how we should update our jerseys. We've had our current ones since 02-03, so 10 years. I kind of like the retro look that's popular in the league today.

Maybe something like this, but with cursive writing.

Funny, the only thing I really like about the jersey is the "blazers" font.

Ya, you're probably right.
#1 Yankees
#2 Celtics

 

[THE HCP]

Man, those old school jerseys are SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love the old font!

 

[Mediocre Man]

Ya, you're probably right.
#1 Yankees
#2 Celtics

Canadiens or Flyers is my guess

 

[Eastoff]

Don't forget Cubs and Red Sox. Those are big name Brands too. I mean teams...

A handful of NBA teams have worn diagonal stripes over the years, but the Blazers are the only team currently employing that concept. It works -- here's hoping they never move away from it. Fun fact: The Blazers' pinwheel logo is a graphic representation of a five-on-five basketball game. It's also one of the few logos in the league that doesn't include a depiction of a basketball.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

So it's come to this.

My thoughts exactly.

 

[Eastoff]

It's also one of the few logos in the league that doesn't include a depiction of a basketball.

Bulls, Grizzlies, Rockets, Nuggets, Bucks, Bobcats, Wolves, Spurs, and Warriors. Everyone else has basketballs. I never really noticed.

e: just a comparison, Jets are the only team with a football; while the Brownies and Dolphins are the only teams with helmets depicted.

 

[tlongII]

Black and orange is a seriously undervalued color combination in sports design...

Love that comment!

 

[3RA1N1AC]

Love that comment!

giants baby!

 

[Mediocre Man]

giants baby!

Giants, Areolas, Bengals, Flyers, Browns, etc...all great combos. It's when you get into the college ranks that those colors start to look really hideous together

 

[Eastoff]

Giant, Brown, Areolas

Uh what?!

 

[Mediocre Man]

Uh what?!

Orioles....I am a Yankee fan. Fuck them

Over the years I've seen maybe 4 or 5 uniform/logo articles, but this one is more extensive. Who wrote it?

This guy Lukas is really into it.

The original bad ass uniforms ... rates up there with the Yankees/Cowboys/Celtics/Lakers, and should be Top 5.

I'm sorry but the thunder jerseys AND colors both suck to me....

Canadiens, Maple Leafs, Flyers, Bruins are all iconic as well

Weird list. Iconic until #12, where somehow the Phillies, who have literally worn baby blue and red as a color combination, appear at #12, only to see other 'iconic' uniforms at 13-19. Inexplicably, Golden State (?!?!) appears at #20, and then Utah, who have had more color changes in 30 years than most teams have in 100, are at #22?

 

[PapaG]

Oh, and the Yankees not being #1 is simply ridiculous. Iconic, stylish, and so timeless that other teams still try to copy it. I hate the Yankees, too.

The Canadiens have been around virtually as long as the Yankees, and have never changed their colors or uniform either
