Out of all the 252 Jazz jersey concepts, I like the NOT LAKERS one, super salty….
The Beehive State personified: That took a lot of work! Even I don’t get that involved in my uniform redesigns.
MIS´ new logo drew inspiration from the new-fangled one for Homestead-Miami?link
We have sun and trees, too!
As if the Bills’ mono blue wasn’t bad enough, now we get mono red. Ugh.
is there a practical reason teams do their jersey announcements as videos instead of just posting pics? or is just for the spectacle?
That Twitter blue logo. Ick but also kinda radical? I really despise the cult of Musk, and how so few members realize that he isn’t a Tony Stark super-genius, he just tells people “make this thing I thought of. Now make it better!” I thought his game would be up when he started using Spaceballs references as the names for Tesla “modes” but I guess not. Twitter might finally be his Waterloo.
