Added two more pics to that little page of pics at:

I have heard back that Steve Blake is still wearing And1, so that must be the new logo they’re sportin (that A thing on the heel).

Not comparable to the “traincar” unis of old, but for this generation, they have to be among my favs — love the colors orange + yellow + blue.

PS, why the hell wasn’t that outdoor game played during the DAY? What a missed opportunity![/quote]

I was thinking the same thing (about the Warriors uni). The orange headband makes it look even better.[/quote]

I have to disagree. I consider the Warriors unis to be one of the NBA’s worst.
Dazzle material, poor color combo, strange rear design, and that mascot/logo is unenthused.

Accessorizing is a plus, however it is whipped cream on —-.[/quote]

Unenthused? Would you rather it was growling and looking all pissed off for no reason?[/quote]
I’ve seen this uni listed on more than one worst unis list — probably for the reasons mentioned above. Although I generally go with classic ones like the Celtics, I really like the Warriors’ duds, perhaps in a guilty pleasure sort of way. BTW, this is from a guy who has always enjoyed the Astros’ tequila sunrise effects.[/quote]

I too, love the Tequila Sunrise, the Rainbow Nuggets, the creamsicle Bucs and the Striped Broncos, however the Warriors are just too busy and nonsensicl to me…What’s with the lightning bolt?

To me, they are the NBA’s Buffalo Bills home uni.

To counter that, the Blazers Rip City uniforms are beauties:

simple, symmetrical side panels with no extraneous crap.[/quote]

Yes, sometimes the regular side panels are fine, but if the opportunity presents itself to do something different within the context of the logo, then individuality should be encouraged. I prefer the Warriors thunderbolts for just that reason. The old circa 1977 uniform of the 76ers was terrific with the stars running down the side panels as well. In football, I preferred the New England Patriots 1993 red/blue merging pants striping pattern to what they wear today.[/quote]

The Warrior’s semi-arched, semi-italicised Microsoft Word text is awful and the navy road jerseys are a good example of why gold and orange shouldn’t be used that closely together (they bleed into each other). The collar is what makes the uniform busy with 3 colors. Also, the orange stripe down the side is just a little too loud for me. A little bit of reconfiguration and recoloring could make the Warriors a good looking team. Thumbs up on the thunderbolt![/quote]
Well if you don’t like the Warriors uniforms. You don’t have to worry about them after this year. They gets new ones next year. They were suppose to be this year, but the cheap owner didn’t want to pay the league fee to change them now.

Rumor is they are a take off on the old city jersey’s with the new bay bridge instead of the golden gate. Back to the blue and yellow colors of old.

Paul, since they were already made and you see things before they are ever out. Have you seen the new warriors jerseys at all?

wow! those are awesome unis…like james said, i bet some of the cap logo sumbissions would look great on those lids

hopefully coach nemanich will have the winner (or at least finalists) of the contest so i can announce them this weekend

that other team in the pic? blecch…i hope the sabes kicked their asses[/quote]

That’s the Sauk Rapids Storm (I hate singular nicknames!), and I agree that those unis are uuuuugly. The Sabres won 38-13, taking a 28-0 lead before the Storm earned a first down. Sartell went into the game ranked No. 4 in Minnesota’s Class 4A. (Classes go from 1A for the smallest schools with eleven-man football to 5A for the largest.)

Called it!

USF Alt. helmets aren’t bad, they’re just uneeded.[/quote]

Correction: the regular helmets are unneeded. Just saw the alts and I like them better.

Also the AFL ref unis appear to be a love ‘em or hate ‘em thing. I love ‘em!

I play in the KVSC Trivia contest every year… so I love me some St. Cloud. Just don’t like when people there call soda “pop”. =)[/quote]

We call it that in Ohio, too. ;)

Anybody know the true story on that?

O.J. can probably find out.[/quote]
that explains why the original ‘mean machine’ had those black tops.

Speaking of which, I really don’t like the Dodgers road unis without the white. I know the blue on gray is supposedly more “classic” but I don’t give a shit. Royal blue against gray flannel is a classic look. Royal blue against gray doubleknit just looks dull and lifeless.[/quote]
Yeah, I think the blue-on-gray needs the white outline to pop a bit better.

But the white outline on the blue-on-white added just a touch of dimension that looked really good.
