I have three Rockets jerseys that had the old logo but did not have pinstripes. All three of them are Champion replicas. I guess it was around the time Francis was drafted when I bought a Francis jersey and it had the pinstripes. Why did they release the jerseys without the pinstripes?
For some reason, back then none of the "replica" jerseys had pin-stripes. Not the Magic, Charlotte, Raptors, or any other team back then that used pin-stripes (apparently, back then it was "cool"). If you wanted the jersey w/ pinstripes, you had to buy the authentic ones.
They had the dildo first, then they thought, "hmm... what usually goes with dildos...? Pajamas!" There you go...
Aren't we a little more mature, I mean come on, do we have to use the word "dildo", just cause we're all adults here I find it to be a tad bit wrong to use that word. Sorry...
We are all adults? I recent that. I still have 7 years before I am officially an adult! I am enjoying my years as a kido.
Flying Dildo or the Angry Needle! Either way, those things can be dangerous! Someone might get their eye poked out!
You mean angelfire? It's not mine. I just searched for a rox logo and posted the first one I found. I changed it above; just in case the pic wasn't showing.
that logo was soooo lame looking back at it now, BUT... the court with the stars and the dark blue court inside the three point line was the shizz. some sorta rule violation or it was hard for the refs to see three point shots or somethin'. best hardwood floor... ever.
I agree, the court design they unveiled for the 95-96 season with the rocket taking off was the best. I think they had to change it a few weeks into the season right?
pics of the original court?? all i remember is the rocket smoke painted around the center court tip off circle...
Umm. you started posting when you were 6? And you posted almost 9000 posts ever since? That's almost 1500 posts a year, 4 posts a day!!! Man, I thought my childhood was wasted on some useless things...
the PJ logo was the worst uniform ever - it was NEVER fresh - even when it came people hated it, but uncle Les wanted to cash in on his championships. Since we all had bought the old jerseys - he needed a new jersey, so we could ALL go out and buy the new ones ... I actually know some people that did just that - suckers THIS is the only "OLD" logo that matters because of this...
I think you may have gotten confused on which BBS you were posting at. Besides that, calling it a dildo is pretty much the only way the fanbase has been able to preserve any dignity and self-respect during the pajama years. I mean, how many teams have been able to get away with using something so sexual in their official logo? As a rocket, the logo's weak; as a dildo, it has a certain cachet.
