OK, that is all for now. Now go forward – recreate, redesign and reinvent your faded glory.

one way to “spell” detroit in the logo.

Re: Chicago Bears orange jersey.

Remember when they wore them against the Niners? Yeah, I do…

And so does Nathan Vasher, who ran back a missed field goal for an NFL record 108-yard TD runback.

Not like anyone really needs superstition to beat the Niners, but I guess it wouldn’t hurt. Don’t mess with a winning formula.

Orange Bears Jerseys + Playing the 49ers = Victory

I’ll be at that game wearing Red & Gold and praying for extreme weather conditions to level the playing field.

NFL Ravens do this combo best -purple, old gold, and black.

there’s about two drops of “old gold” on the Ravens’ unis. they’re pretty much just purple and black… which sucks.

Sabres goalie Marty Biron finally got his white mask painted.

Hey isn’t the buffalo with the crossed sabres on the side of the mask from John Slabyk’s website with his own designs? Here’s the site. Maybe Biron doesn’t like the new logo either.

I don’t know if he doesn’t like it or not but the new logo is on his mask. :)

And as for the all-star jersey, those Prince of Wales/Campbell jersey were the best. :D

anyone notice that the old Giants Uni’s didn’t match the same blue of the helmets??

The mismatch for the Giants, Rams, Vikings and a lot of other teams came from the use of “impregnated” helmet shells – instead of painting the helmets as had been done from the introduction of plastic shells in the 1950s up until 1970 or so, they now made the helmets out of colored plastic shells. From the early 1970s through the mid-1990s really the only painted shells were the metallic colors – silver, gold, “Cowboys’ Silver Blue”, etc. There were some exceptions – I think the Bears took the molded navy shell and repainted it their shade of navy during the early Ditka years (including the Super Bowl year).

Painted helmets made a big return in the 1990s with newer “dazzle” colors. I think Denver was an early adopter, where they take a colored shell and paint the dazzle finish over it. Then came the “chrome” finishes like the current Giants and Vikings (and many universities). A lot of it is teams willingness to have the shells repainted during the season (as Notre Dame has done for years).

Hey Paul,
I noticed something new on the Boston Celtics in preseason. There is now a cloverleaf above the nameplate on the back of the jersey. Did some minor research and even the NBA store does not have this feature on the Authentic road jerseys. I’ve seen photos from 2004 and 2005 and niether have this cloverleaf. Is this is a new addition this year, or was it added last year?

it’s not a cloverleaf, it’s a shamrock, and Paul answered this one last week — it’s new for 2006-07.

06-07 NHL All-Star Game Jerseys reveiled. Someone kill me now, please.

Ugly. 03-04’s still the best All-Star jersey I’ve seen ever.

I will say this: they follow Reebok’s slim-fit template to a tee. In the case of your choice of “best I’ve ever seen”, they’re nice, but they’re nothing like the old Campbell Conference jerseys. I want an Yzerman one! And not those BS “CCM Vintage” pieces of drivel either.

Click me!

Using the NHL logo colors? That’s uni-centric.

Woo-hoo! There you are, Teebz! I was just thinking that we needed you to drop in with your hockey knowledge, and there you are!

Is that burnt orango on the Campbell jerseys? If so, that’s a good use of the color orange.

p.s. Still plotting to drag Paul to the Twin Cities, but I’m fresh out of ideas. Help a fellow (almost) Northerner out!
