So true. Morons like Christopher, Kingston and Moose were useless.

Re: New warm ups!!
When it comes to sports uniforms (and much of my own wardrobe, much to my wife's chagrin), I've always been a fan of loud and bright colors/patterns. Oregon, Baylor, etc are some of my favorite uniforms in recent trends.Flipper wrote: ↑Wed Oct 04, 2023 1:44 pmI agree 100%TalonsUpPuckDown wrote: ↑Wed Oct 04, 2023 11:31 am I'm a "STAY OFF MY LAWN!" old guy and I think those warmups look pretty sweet.
I've always thought BG has missed the boat with what could be such a loud fun color combo (Cleveland is actually WORSE). I really love those warmup pants, they look sweet to me.

It looked like a Globetrotter uniform. I told my wife, "Well, they won't forget to take those off." They are hideous, in a perfect sort of way. It's like they are so ugly they are awesome. Like hammb, I enjoy wearing things that are more abrasive and loud.

OMG those pants are SO FUN! I want a pair for myself. I'd wear them to games.

That is EXACTLY how I feel about them. And my wife says, "Those are awful." with a look that only makes me love them that much more.footballguy51 wrote: ↑Thu Oct 05, 2023 11:32 am They are hideous, in a perfect sort of way. It's like they are so ugly they are awesome.

Re: New warm ups!!
I used to be a jersey freak...have a bunch of throwback hoops and some hockey and baseball jerseys packed away...love the loud color schemes from the 70's...like the Oakland A's or the SF Giants. So yeah...I love those pants.
It's not the fall that hurts...it's when you hit the ground.
Re: New warm ups!!
I don't know why it became so vogue to wear such bland, boring sports uniforms. Seems like everybody wants to be the Yankees or Tigers with their traditional snooze fest. Whites/Greys/etc.
Give me that Astro's Tequila Sunrise, the Bucs creamsicles, the chargers baby blues, the Oregon/Baylor electric/volt unis, Denver Bronco's old orange unis, etc.
Sadly the new BG Hoops jerseys are pretty simplistic to me (Released on twitter this afternoon). At least they're rocking all orange instead of brown, but we'll probably never get to see them at home as they almost always opt for white on white. And at least they don't have the stupid bird wings. I did like the gunmetal grey and bright orange combos we wore in past years.

Re: New warm ups!!
Not a fan of the pants. They look very much like clown pants. My 2nd reaction was "So, we losing to the globetrotters tonight?"
BUT - I'm an old fart. It's not really directed at me. And I can 100% appreciate that they are in fact actually marketing the team and the look now.
Plus, they may in fact be so hideous that they are actually cool. i need a minute for my eyes to adjust.

Re: New warm ups!!
Yeah, the clown thing occurred to me too. I'll be waiting for some Toledo to Photoshop one of our players in full orange and brown clown regalia. I'm tempted to do it myself just for grins.Diemilkweed wrote: ↑Thu Oct 05, 2023 5:22 pm Not a fan of the pants. They look very much like clown pants.

Re: New warm ups!!
I’ll be shocked if Nike made this style of pants for Bowling Green exclusively. Brown, orange and white model will be exclusive but not the style. No reason to fear being the clowns of college basketball. Personally they bring my childhood memories in the 70’s back. I’m pretty sure Eastwood had them locally in baby blue, red and white.

Wow, I think you are right. That seems to match my recollection as well!FalconTurf wrote: ↑Sun Oct 08, 2023 5:50 pm I’ll be shocked if Nike made this style of pants for Bowling Green exclusively.

My initial thought went immediately to Indiana's uniforms which I never quite liked appearance wise. But the uniqueness I think makes me accepting of them,
And BTW - Who gives a crap what TU and their childish fans think or do? But as with all things BG does (Sic Sic, 2 mascots, etc.) look for them to copy us eventually.
