Not a bad look for the Rocket's uniform. I would definitely prefer that over what they have now. ------------------
What about a third option? The Hornets, Bulls, Pistons, Pacers, Sixers and Sonics have three options of their uniforms. If the Bulls can have a version with pinstripes can't we get one without. Even if its only for one year until we change arenas. Then they can redesign them totally and the one year (optional ) uni's can become collector items ------------------
Christ.....everyone thought I was serious about the Orange and Maroon? Worst color schemes (In no order): Spurs: I honestly think that the Spurs play soft because of that pansy ass, pastel paint brush, bull **** color scheme. Thank God they dont incorporate that on their jerseys. Suns: Basically looks like a monkey took a crap and these are the colors they decided to use. Pistons: The turquoise fad is long gone. Sonics: Too much damn green. Hornets: See Pistons. Cavaliers: Looks like a Halloween nightmare. Bucks: Purple and Dark Green = Barney and kind bud. ------------------ "We make more, but we spend more." Patrick Ewing

Might as well as add some more pictures of new unis brought to you by the same Dave. Different look on the red uni's The Nike Look ------------------
Does Dave ever post here on the BBS or does he just send clutch his kick @$$ art work for posting on the site. We need to all email those pics to the Rockets and suggest they get Dave to design the new unis. BTW: Does dave have a website with his work on it? ------------------ ~John~ Help keep the obsessed thread alive post the reasons why you are an obsessed Rockets fan by clicking here

You are correct Finn*... One of many Uniform threads... If you view FrancisFan's pictures individually then you'll see 2 more uniform pics. They all kick ass as far as I'm concerned... ------------------
How about one of those half and half jerseys like nelly wore during the superbowl? That's the new trend. ------------------ "I've been on a calendar, but I've never been on time." -Marilyn Monroe
Rocket Fan, no I wouldn't turn down millions of dollars. I would be embarrassed to wear the unis though. I really like the second mainly blue uni. ------------------
Of course I know it's a coincidence. Obviously, the new uniforms haven't had anything to do w/our lack of success. I'm just saying lets get back to tradition. We did have alot of success in the red and gold. I saw the Rockets in those unis for 15 years. I say,why *uck w/tradition. I can't see successful franchises completely changing their logos and colors. I'd understand if we'd have a mediocre existence such as the nuggest,clippers,etc. But we've done pretty good. I know we'll never see the red and gold,it's just wishful thinking on my part. ------------------
btw: here is FrancisFan's I'm in the camp who doesn't like the saturated primaries, like red. Maryland?? Besides, seeing Cuttino driving on air with both feet off the ground makes me giddy.
those uni's rock! excuse the pun. they would be the best home/away and alternate in the league. someone get these to the rockets front office, please! ------------------
Anyone have any ideas on how we can actually get these to the Rockets front office and into the hands of someone that matters? I like both sets, but the solid colors rock, classic unis with a little modernism thrown in. ------------------
Well, Smoothie has been telling me about these new uni's, so I had to stop by and check them out. I have to say I LOVE the navy blue for the road uni, but I'm not too crazy about the home uni with the blue on the sides (under the arm pits). The red is almost too busy, but the navy is AWESOME!

okay, so we've had a bazillion of these uni threads, why is there no Real petition to change the ugly s#!t ? ------------------ C-son -------------- "When life gives you lemons, Shut up and eat the lemons!" - Harry Solomon
sorry 'bout the double post, but I mean seriously, we stopped them from moving, surely we can get the ugly unis off of 'em! ------------------ C-son -------------- "When life gives you lemons, Shut up and eat the lemons!" - Harry Solomon
