Funny, I always wanted to paint, not too big on flying kites though. Unless you’re telling to go fly a kite lol

I HATE EVERYONE! There, I got involved in the “bitch-fest!”

I for one think that Paul & Bryan et al. can post whatever they want on the site. It’s their site. And no one tells the movie critic to stop critiquing movies because it’s become a “bitch-fest.” If we truly wanted this blog to stop the negativity, then maybe we should attack those who make pathetic excuses for uniforms. Things like friggin’ uniforms that have more logos for nike than the team… Didn’t anyone watch Mighty Ducks 2? Charley didn’t want to play for the Hendrix logo, damn it! he’s a Duck! QUACK! QUACK! QUACK! And Hooray for UniWatch!

Not completely uniform related, but a funny video from Jacksonville’s camp on rookie “hazing” which includes ridiculous haircuts on rookies by the vets.

Ah, yet another weekend day where there’s nothing but griping. Pass. Looking forward to Monday.

Oh, sweet cream on an ice cream sammich! Can we stop bitching about Bryan and get back to uniforms, such as “Now that Brett Favre’s been reinstated by Roger Goddell, what uniform will he wear in 2008?”

Problem is a lot of us come to the site to wade through the comments to find little nuggets of uni-information.

This junk just (including my post here, I suppose) just floods the comments with crap and makes it difficult to go through.

If you have an opinion on uniforms- yes, voice them. If you have an opinion on the site or an author of a post- maybe just email them directly?

Marc, grow up. Yes, duh, you have every right to voice your opinion. But just because you’re exercising that right, that doesn’t mean you’re doing so in a constructive fashion.

If you don’t like the weekend posts, don’t visit on the weekend. Same practical effect as if I put up a “gone fishin'” sign, and meanwhile those who DO like the weekend posts are able to do so.

The weekend posts are, for the most part, glorified captions that serve as placeholders so the site can stay open for those of you who want to chat. To bitch about these short posts is silly and pointless — save your complaints for the lengthier weekday posts.

Uni Watch is diferent things to diferent people. Some folks love the historical pieces, others hate them; some people love the logo/branding critiques, others hate them; some people love the long “Uni Watch Profiles” interviews, others hate them. I can’t please everyone and, frankly, wouldn’t want to try. Uni Watch is ultimately what *I* want it to be (including some historical pieces, some logo/branding critiques, some long interviews, etc.), and what I want it to be on weekends is Bryan’s work. Not your cuppa? No problem — enjoy an extra-long brunch, or read more of the Sunday paper, or call your mom (it’s been too long, hasn’t it?), or do SOMETHING other than griping about a free service that’s provided for your benefit, for shit’s sake….[/quote]

[quote comment=”283070″]Georgia Tech showed off their new uniforms at fanday yesterday

The pants are very sharp. The jerseys definitely need some work.

[quote comment=”283083″]To hopefully return to uniwatch talk, I am not fond of the new GT unis. I still appreciate that some schools understand understatement in uniforms (Texas, OU, PSU, USC etc). Seems to me the better or more historic the program, the more traditional the uni, much like in the pros.[/quote]
IMHO, the balance lies in the middle. Penn State, Oklahoma, Texas, etc football looks are boring because they just look like t-shirts with numbers on them. They look like something you’d wear in a rec league. I dunno, the traditionalist in me be damned, but that look just bleeds cheap and a stubborn unwillingness to change.

Look at Virginia Tech, for example. In 1999-2003, they had a great uniform, but it was rather bland. I mean, there was a maroon jersey and white numbers on the front with orange numbers on the sleeves. Very boring, see for yourself: link
Yeah, as you can see, they’re a little bland and nothing worth writing home about. Thats essentially what you have with those other uniforms like Okie, Texas, and Penn St.

Now, in 2004, they switched it up to add some piping. Pretty much the biggest complaint that i would have about them is the orange collar, but other than that, they look pretty sharp. I mean, when you see this, you know its VT, and thats definitely a goal you should have with the unis: link Had they kept this design for a while, they would have been regarded as a classic in a new school way. Its not over the top, but its not bland, and it certainly doesn’t look traditional, but it works in its own way.

Now, this year they went and messed it all up and went to the horror side of Nike. link There is not much good you can say about that. Its over the top, its different just to be different, and it screams ‘look at me, i’m unique!’ Its not good, and it just looks forced. This is the bad side of the new age.

Now, ironically enough, VT also is going to wear arguably one of their best unis of all time this year (and one which they should probably go full-time to if they were smart). link Look at that, its perfection. Its traditional, but its not boring.

Liking that shade of gold. Those shoulder things would be much better if they were a bit smaller and didn’t connect in the front. I imagine they also connect under the NOB which will probably look very busy.

BTW, did we ever determine whether GT is supposed to wear navy or black accent? They seem to go back and forth and I can’t tell what color the numbers are in that picture, althought the coach’s shirt appears to be navy.[/quote]

If you go the GT’s website its accented in navy, The yellow jacket logo has black stripes on it. Also the front page pic on the site shows the numbers as navy

Sidenote: #15 seems to be reaching for #81’s golden package in that pic. 81 seems pleasantly accepting of the matter.

I’m no VT fan by any means, but I actually like the new duds. Yeah, it’s a Nike nightmare, but somehow it works. It’s much better than what the likes of Oregon, Oregon State, and Miami have trotted out in recent years.

I’ve been reading here a long time, but have never posted, because most of y’all are a lot more astute than I when it comes to matters of uniform trivia. However, I’ve noted in the past few days something that no one else seems to have touched on, so I figured I’d bring it up.

Several of the Pirates have been wearing their jerseys with the top buttons unbuttoned, and it’s blatant enough that Len Kasper and Bob Brenly have started talking about it on the WGN telecast, to the point of noting various other uniform rules, and wondering when someone’s going to get called for a violation.

It started, as far as I could tell, with Doug Mientkiewicz wearing two buttons and no velcro over the past two days, and it looked positively bush. Today, he seems to have done link, but it still doesn’t seem like he has any velcro on his vest.

I didn’t get any screencaps of his previous state of disarray, and this look is at least slightly better, but it seems, fortunately for us, and unfortunately for the Pirates, that the look has started spreading, link.

Gruesome.

Honey Mustard. THAT’S IT! I saw the pants and couldnt quite figure why I didnt like them. And Honey Mustard covered sweatpants? All of my future salads are now ruined…

And the photoshopped jersey without the connectng line is a 1000% improvement…

I don’t know about anyone else but I am looking forward to the Redskins and Colts “Backup Matchup” this evening. I have a few questions for the all knowing Uni Watch Crew:

1. Will Jason Taylor play?

2. Are they playing with current unis or throwbacks?

3. What ever happened with the Colts logo design contest? I know there was a winner, he revealed himself on a forum more than a month ago, but the Colts have remained mum… anyone with the inside scoop… or have my dreams of the Buckin’ Colt come true?

Those come with white helmets this year correct? If so, the hats will look cool but thats the worst shade of gold I’ve ever seen.

[quote comment=”283111″]I’m pretty sure Ben Sheets is pitching without an undershirt. At least I can’t see it if there is one.
I had the same thought, Jason. Seems highly unusual. Even on a hot day, I think I’d still prefer cotton against my skin to polyester. He took the loss, so perhaps he won’t be going with that look again.

I love the VaTech white-out uni. Although I think I’d love it even more if the UCLA stripe were repeated on the cuff.

Beardface, I hear what you’re saying about the blandness of Penn State, Texas, Oklahoma, but I disagree about the motivation. I’ve always liked how the (nearly) perennially successful teams stuck with the look associated with their greatest success: The Yankees, the Canadiens, the Packers. So I’ll concede that Penn State is bland (how could I not, right?) but that’s their look, and they’ve won national championships with it.[/quote]
I hear ya on that, but I dunno. Just seems like they’re sticking with tradition just for the sake of doing so. I mean, Miami has a handful of titles, and they switch all the time. They don’t need to, but they do. In fact, heck, back in 1998, they practically started the whole ‘collar a different color and piping on the jersey’ fad that is so prevalent nowadays. Why do they do it? Because they want to and because they are able to create the type of look they want for the type of team they field. granted, the uniforms should have stuck with their 2002 version, but who am I to complain, their colors are green and orange, they’re gonna look ugly no matter what they do.

But, IMHO, those 3 schools we keep going back to would do well to mix things up a bit with the unis. Now I’m not saying throw piping all over the place and blotches of alternate colors around, but perhaps a stripe down the pants or a stripe on the sleeve wouldn’t be such a bad idea. Just something to differentiate itself from a run of the mill t-shirt with tape look.

There’s traditional, there’s classic, and then there’s bland. Florida State is traditional, Iowa is traditional, Ohio State is classic… Penn State, Texas, and Oklahoma are bland.

No, no, no! We need all the time we can so we can discuss what new decal the NFL is going to put on the helmets, who’s jerseys are buttoned or not, if the Tampa Bay Bucs are changing their number fonts or who is wearing what color shoelaces during training camp.

I mean, Miami has a handful of titles, and they switch all the time
Fair point. It’s almost as if their tradition is to change the uniform every few years.

their colors are green and orange, they’re gonna look ugly no matter what they do
Ha! Yeah, the decision to play up the green instead of just having it as an accent wasn’t the best.

They haven’t always been this way: Walter Iooss’ book “Gladiators” shows the ‘Canes in ’73 with a logo-less, forest green helment and matching jersey with white pants. And in the George Mira Era of the early ’60s they basically had Packers colors:

They\’ve been wearing a new gold lid in practice that matched the new darker gold and are suppose to wear that during games as well, they do plan on wearing the throwbacks, with white helmet, from 2 years ago for a couple of games.

what I do like is they are going back to wearing white at home, like it should be.

I love the correct gold but hate the pattern. this is one of those instances where tradition should have trumped the supplier.

How long have the Cardinals been wearing these hats? Their wearing them tonite against the Phillies and ive never seen them before.

At the very least, the Redskins aren’t wearing the “red jersey” red socks with their red pants, like they were at the end of last year.

[quote comment=”283134″]Watching the Colts/Skins tonight and I’m worried already about the upcoming season.

We all know that sleeves have all but disappeared on in football, especially on linemen, but I think the next step has been taken by Washington.

The defensive lineman look like they’re wearing cutoff T-shirts. You can really get a sense of it on Jason Taylor who is on the sideline, sans pads.

I’ll try to get screenshots.[/quote]

yeah…i saw jt…but i think his sleeves are rolled up…he’s not wearing pads, like you said…the OL & DL shirts are definitely as small as you can get, barely covering the pads, and plenty of armpit hole action…*sigh*

however, we’ve seen sleeves this “short” before, and i don’t think they can actually get any shorter (due to pads), but the cut of both teams is definitely tighter and higher (some guys pads are now sticking out underneath their shirts) and the armpit holes are easily as big as ever…hopefully this won’t carry over to the real season, but im afraid it will

on another note…how refreshing is it to see a helmet with only ONE number on the back?

how many levels of football do they play at the HOF?

is this for pro, college & HS?

That champagne gold is terrible. Colorado has the worst shade of pants I’ve ever seen (the gold ones).

3. They will win the national championship this year, not because they are good…because they are Alabama.
4. Phil Fulmer is the cause of all the world’s problems including, but not limited to, the shoddiness of their practice jerseys, all the team’s injuries, and manmade global warming.
