    Don't mean to derail any conversations, but I just wanted to post this. Jarryd Hayne and his 49er teammates. He has his work cut out for him. He'll have guys that size on every team, running full speed, head down, hitting him with an additional 30 lbs of gear on every play. :eek: On the...

    Ah, just saw this and thought it was worth a look: http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/mlb-big-league-stew/rays-wear-blue-socks-in-honor-of-grant-balfour-s-late-father-173431955.html

    I generally don't like the trend here, esp. in minor leagues, to make Star Wars or "military appreciation" or other one-offs. They look cheesy, even most of the patriotic ones, which I wish were limited to military academies (Navy and Army have had some beautiful one-off uniforms in football...

    Speaking of logos: I had never seen this one until just a couple of minutes ago. Not an "official" Footscray Doggies logo, I presume? Maybe just for their supporters?

    That Dawg Pound logo is actually the old one. But, yeah, the "new" logo unveiling was much ado about nothing. I have a helmet in progress with my original design, and if the Ohio permafrost ever thaws again, I do plan on finishing and will post afterward. Was hoping to have it done by the...

    Might be a bad idea. I suck at Engaleesh...even the 'Murican version. :eek:

    Discussion Hockey sweaters/uniforms

    Feel free to post any hockey uniform/logo news here, as well as any historic or current hockey uniforms/logos you love (or hate). The NHL All Star Game is today here in Columbus. We went to the Arena District to check out some of the All Star Weekend events/displays. Since we have threads for...

    Buckeye is our state tree and also the name of the nut it produces (thus our mascot, Brutus Buckeye, whose head is a nut). The nuts are poisonous, so the joke is "What's a Buckeye?" "A worthless nut." :p

    Sorry to interrupt, but... THE Ohio State University Buckeyes ARE National Champs! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D (one smiley for every National Championship in our history...GO BUCKS!) http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/2015/01/13/ohio-state-oregon-college-football-playoff-championship/21673353/

    We're required 13 years of public or private schooling (grade school, jr. high and high school was our local public system), or an equivalent diploma can be tested for after a person has turned legal age for such things, which is 18, here. A diploma of this type is required to enter a...

    Actually, like footy, gridiron (our sport, however, evolved from rugby) was played on an amateur level long before anyone thought of turning pro. Some NCAA schools were playing in front of packed stadiums long before there was an NFL. But, unlike footy, amateur teams didn't turn into...

    In case you're not aware, this nut on my avatar is Brutus Buckeye, and our boys are playing in the National Championship v. Oregon Ducks on Jan. 12. Our punter for the past couple of seasons is an Aussie who played a bit of footy for the Dees, Cameron Johnston...

    It's no surprise they didn't ask for the name of the competition, Gibbsy. USAFL failed long ago in their goal of getting 1% of people here to know about footy within 10 years (now, nearly 20 years later), and there's no sense in teaching people the name of the elite pro league without knowing...
