    Yep. A teams identity is very important. I personally like team like the Oakland Raiders, the Chicago Bulls, Dallas Cowboys, LA Lakers, etc.. partially because of their strong identity. A teams strong identity (sometimes) goes hand in hand with first class organization. I would like to see the Rockets maximize their look by choosing a color scheme that matches their theme. To me that means a simple color scheme that accents one strong color, in this case red. Sports are just about fun for me and an ugly uni ruins it for me.

    Just the way I look at it.

    On the old rockets uniforms did it say Houston Or Rockets. I would like it to say Houston on the new ones.

    Yeah, everyone thinks sports are all about fun, buddy (or at least they should), and yeah, I agree that blue shouldn't be a Rocket's color (or at least not an integral color). The rest of your logic is screwed up, though. If you're gonna leave cuz of their team colors, leave now.

    Personally I dont like the mainstream, hightech, streaky jerseys. I like the simple ones, cause they are easy on the eyes and they give the team a better impression. The stripes on the sides isnt cool at all. I really like this old jersey...
    its this link...

    I've got a great idea! How about on Yao's jersey, have his name in Chinese under his english name? Make it similar to the Vietnamese street signs in downtown ;)

    although miguels black and red was nice too. i wish they would release five to ten options and let fans and players vote on what they like. let the fans decide what it will be. ( at least we wont have clownsuits anymore)((hopefully))

    Thanks.

    Ahh well, most forums I've been to start off like that anywas, eventually they either shut up or lose interest.

    I didn't know this site had a message board. Had I known, I would have been here 3-4 years ago...:p

    I'm here for life now :)

    I hope the Rockets do this with the new uni's

    1) Get rid of that cartoonish font/typeface
    2) No pinstripes
    3) Go back to red as the primary color
    4) Remove Blue out of the logo/uniform
    5) Use Red/gold or pewter/white/grey
    6) Use a block typeface.
    7) Keep it simple, ala. Detroit, Seattle, or even Dallas.
    8) Create a classic logo and uniform scheme that lasts.
