OT: All Jersey Talk (Game Worn, Replica, Authentic, etc.) Part VI

[ScottyK]

This still sucks. I’ll get one on the secondary market because this is surely a one-and-done and the team doesn’t deserve money for this.

3 year program as of now, 13 games this year, between 12-15 each of the following two seasons

 

[NjDevsRR]

Ok. I get the hate for the jersey, but some people are going overboard on dumb reasons. Another is the complaint of the C and A being on the wrong side. This isn’t new, it depends on the crest layout.

 

[My3Sons]

I actually knew about that team, and it was in the 40s in the EHL for four years, and its the base template of this alternate jersey.

I collect spores, molds, and fungus.

 

[My3Sons]

no that’s even worse and looks like cheap 90s saga street hockey uniform

At least it's not the word jersey on a jersey. I would have thought Garden State or New Jersey or a new logo like a pitchfork or a stack of bodies burning in hell as blood soaked devils dance around them would have been better than just the word jersey, but that's just me. I realize this is all subjective.

 

[NJDevils#4]

Awful. Lou would throw the design out the front door of Continental Arena back in the day. Embarrassing

The I won’t go to the games that they are wearing this jersey is my favorite take of this thread

They will never do images of the devil or anything like that. I believe there would be serious protests. They dealt with that enough when they named the team the Devils.

lol this gem The New Jersey Devils Need To Change Their Name Because Their Name " Devil " is Offensive - YouTube

 

[Guttersniped]

Oh joy they found some more teams nobody has ever given a f*** about to reference. I really can't express how much I hate all these pictures explaining what everything is referencing. If you have to explain every single thing it shows what a shit job you did. Absolute f***ing trash...

People have talked about the Newark Bulldogs before and I think that’s actually pretty cool that there was a pro team in Newark.

I get that hockey history and old timey photos aren’t everyone’s cup of team but it’s some people’s cups of tea.

When teams try to make “cool” jerseys without a historical base we often end up with dated crap like… most jerseys from 90s.

I also think people are weird about stripes and complaining about every random detail, some Project Runway wannabe judges in here.

I can’t defend the logo though and I get why people are bummed about it. (And yes it’s your money, eyes, aesthetic, opinion etc)

I was being absurd to make a silly point. I know it's the Jersey Devil and not any sort of demonic imagery the team is based on. Dr. McMullen made that clear when he brought the team to NJ.

Looks like they're going to work at Foot Locker lmao. Holy shit the script is soooooo f***ing bad, so much cringe, might as well put Joe Piscapo's head on there and have Parkway exit signs for the numbers.

It would have been so much better with an old style circular logo or just block type with D E V I L S diagonally.

Hopefully we'll see some customized ones with additional script like Jersey Tomatoes, Jersey Girl, Central Jersey, Jersey Shore and Jersey Whistle.

I don't remember anyone talking about the Newark Bulldogs besides seeing a jersey hanging up in the arena until they put that black line on the current jersey.

It wasn't a complaint, it was a question.

 

[hacksaw7]

"And this stripe here is a nod to..."

ENOUGH. I'm sick of the nods and winks to the 1857 Newark Bullskeeters. Stop pushing that crap

"What Exit?" would have been better.

On threads discussing the jersey recently, not in life generally. Though you can buy a various versions of the Bulldog jersey online and a poster mentioned someone (a relative? I don’t remember the details or poster, it wasn’t that thrilling) owning one.

Read the last few pages of this thread to see others bringing it up. I answered you on a different thread.

We have 32 home games remaining this season and they're wearing it TWELVE times. Too much. I thought 6...maybe 8. But come on now scale it back once you've seen the backlash. And scrap it in 2022.

Even if they wanted to, they can't per NHL rules.

Its an Adidas requirement

"What Exit?" would have been better.

How about a logo that is an outline of the Pru Center and the words "Abandon all hope ye who enter here" instead of Jersey.

 

[NjDevsRR]

Three of my friends already put orders in, I won’t be doing that. But, the people who think this won’t sell are out to lunch. You’ll be seeing many of them.
