[quote comment="360324"]as far as indiana, do they play football in that state? and if that is a football team, i don't hate it.[/quote] I dunno. You tell me. Flag football, maybe? Oh, I think there may have been a decent program once upon a time at a school just outside of South Bend.

The dark pants rule died in 1990 for me.

Not too bad. A little Gold trim on the numerals might just improve it a bit, but all-in-all a good look.

On eBay right now, there’s a custom Dolphin helmet designed and painted by a local artist in the 1970s.

Could be legit – there’s a reference to Seiler in this 1968 Sports Illustrated.

If I was a Dolphin fan, I’d be all over that.[/quote]

The Miami Shamus?[/quote]

looks like a dolphin to me. real or not, that thing kicks ass.

dark football pants.[/quote]

A white one sold back in Sept.:

http://cgi.ebay.com/...

Both versions – White and Orange – look a bit too dull and hard to discern from a distance to be useful for the Dolphins. They did right by leaving their original design alone (for the most part).

That said, two weeks ago on EBAY I saw a dark Silver Eagles helmet with Dark Green Wings in the 19060s-1980s style. It was some old High School helmet or something – it really looked sharp.

[quote comment="360316"]Is it possible to request/commission a Rob Ullman illo? I’d love to see one for an MLS team (and can think of some friends who are highly qualified to serve as the subject).[/quote]
Many of his works are indeed done by commission. I do not know the process though. Probably just need to contact him, his e-mail is probably on his site.

that’s how artists make their money, so of course you can.
