    I like the idea of having Houston on the road Jersey's and Rockets on the home Jerseys.

    Not bad, imho.

    I just want our colors back. I'd also like to see a star incorporated in there somewhere, even if its just a small one like the Mavs have on the backs of their unis.

    Am I correct in saying that the Rockets are the only pro team in Texas to NOT have a star somewhere on their uniforms? Every team in Texas should have one, imo.

    Hottoddie -- I like that one, but I still can't stand that Rockets typeface.

    I like them. I think they look very bold. I hope the guy sends his idea to the Rockets.

    I prefer the one Hottoddie posted to the current Rockets jersey, but I prefer the Creamer version to the Hottoddie one [if that makes sense].

    Those Creamer one's are the best I've seen so far. No offense to the one's posted by BBS members, cause those are great too, but I like how the colors of these new ones aren't as bright red, I like the horizontal stripes, I think it is very soothing to the eyes, a style that could last for twenty years even.

    The one thing I don't like - the logo on the bottom of the shorts. I'm fine with having a logo there, but it just doesnt look right. I would keep everything about the jersey but replace the little logo with a small version of this one, which was linked in another thread (by outlaw)

    Take that logo, make it small. On the home jersey, do the H and R in the deep maroon red and the Rocket in yellow. On the Road jersey, do the H and R in the yellow and the Rocket in white.

    What do you guys think?

    The new renderings are definitely a step up from the present unis, hwever, they look too much like the colors of the Washington Redskins. That's not bad, accept for the fact that with the stripes on the sides like that, it kind of resembles American Indian warpaint or something. All this is fine with the exception that we are the ROCKETS and don't have a Native American mascot. The retro design works, but I think we need to keep more of a bright red, with the yellow and black, and add just a little flair on the jerseies and shorts that makes a statement that we are in Houston, and we are the Rockets. I like the idea of an alternate jersey (the yellow one is nice).

    I'm not to high on these jerseys. Does anybody elsen think that our players would look like an order of McDonald's french fries? The rectangles on the side don't work, but if you take them off, they become the old jerseys minus the logo on the front.

    Do any of the rockets have a web site? Somebody ought to e-mail or just mail some of the ideas that have shown up here to the players.
