I think Cooper looks a little over his head here.

yes, I am thinking he picked Pittsburgh as overhyped because he remembers us chanting "We want Crosby"

 

[Adz]

He never apologized for that. Probably thought we didn't know what everyone else was chanting.

I just made it last night when I was messing around with photoshop



Is Wendy some kind of metaphor for a dirty pirate hooker?

Look, I don't care if fans of other teams decide to come in here to talk about off topic things, but phrases like "dirty pirate hooker" aren't going to fly. We try to keep this family friendly as much as possible.

Let's be mindful of others, OK? Otherwise you'll find yourself flying out of the door face first (metaphorically speaking).

That isn't directed solely at you, Sherm. Just a general warning.

Damn. I guess more Nashville fans are from Nashville though. The Avs forum has people from literally everywhere.

I'm about as far from Nashville as you can get, without being in Canada.

Though I happen to be further north than all but four teams in the NHL (Ottawa is debatable IMO).

Your in Hawaii or Alaska?

My friends in Seattle who are Preds fans might beg to differ, but I digress. Of course they grew up here so I don't know if that counts.

 

[Viqsi]

No offense but I don't see a big CBJ national following.

There's not a national following, but we are kind of getting a "everybody's second favorite team" vibe of late among established hockey fans. That's the bandwagon I'm referring to.

 

[jwhouk]

I did get an e-mail from the NHL encouraging me to buy tickets for the two times the Preds come to Saint Paul this season...

hmmmm.... a guitar pick in the logo for a Nashville sports team.... now where have I seen that before???

 

[Adz]

Apparently all pro teams in Nashville (except the Titans who are special) + Vanderbilt will be represented by the color gold. Will make decorating with the little banners easier, I suppose. Just make 'em all gold with a guitar pick on them and leave off the name.

Oh. My. God. That logo is absolutely horrible.

From the team:
"Broadway Burnt Orange, Sunburst Tan, Neon Orange, and Cash Black make up the club's new official colors."

No gold anywhere. I personally think this is terrrrrrrible.

 

[Adz]

Technically, the "gold" that's on our t-shirts is closer to "school bus" than "gold", too.

It's gold-ish and close enough.

Well if you want to get technical, it is hard to replicate the color gold. I guess the closest you could get is some hideous shade of tan like what the Penguins and Vanderbilt uses, but you couldn't replicate the shiny part that makes it gold.

And to the point of calling yellow gold, my college is just as guilty. We were the Golden Eagles and our colors were yellow (basically the same shade) and purple.

This was genuinely my reaction:

Sadly, that's not the case, but it would make sense for every team to have some blue and gold in the color scheme, because those are the colors on the city flag and seal. That's what Pittsburgh's teams do, and, really, wouldn't it make sense for a team whose name comes from the mythological Golden Age of Man (the Titans) to have some gold in the color scheme?

Remember all the marketing stuff they did when the Preds first came to town? They gave away cars, trucks, boats and even a house!! THey had those swipe cards that you could redeem for all kinds of stuff. Season ticket holders always got a bunch of stuff too.

 

[ladypredsfan]

I almost forgot!! Welcome to our new northern posters!!

I'm a Preds fan in Phoenix. Used to live in Vegas but I am from Nashville.

Sorry thought Dallas was everyone's darling this year.

If the Titans do rebrand like has been runored, I'd like to see them change colors and logos and move to a gold look. Gold is such a good color. I wouldn't mind going black and gold like Vandy or blue and gold like the Preds.

I don't think they'd ever choose black and gold simply because of the Steelers, but gold with blue accents might be nice. Do any other NFL teams have a predominant gold color for uniforms? Can't think of any.

Steelers are more yellow though. Wouldn't really be close to the Steelers if they went with Vandy's gold.

 

[hockey diva]

Packers are green and yellow.

 

[AdmiralsFan24]

Packers are green and yellow.

No argument here.
