You seriously need to learn how to read.

The fact that the helmets of players on the same team are different colors is more annoying than the mismatch between helmet/cap and jerseys, while greater in contrast, is at least consistent throughout the team.

This is a top 5 great debate.

I love their uniforms from today

That's not what I said. I said it's only slightly more noticeable than the other examples. And like I also said there is no such thing as a color match; especially when you're dealing with different manufacturers, like New Era and Mizuno. The Red Sox caps and helmets are very noticeably different, the Dodgers as well. None of them are enough to be distracting unless you're specifically looking for it.

Edit: I see at least 3 different color helmets there. That is way worse than a helmet/cap jersey mismatch, at least those are consistent.

Baseball will be interesting next year when UnderArmor takes over for Majestic (not Mizuno, btw ). That said, I don't think you can ever get a helmet to completely match a jersey in color. You can get it close.

I never really noticed hockey helmets being different shades, and I definitely never noticed the Rams helmet not matching its jersey until it was pointed out today

Oh... so it’s ok for it to look bad as long as it’s “consistent” throughout?
What a dumb argument
It still looks bad

U wanna say other stuff looks bad too?
That’s fine
I don’t disagree

But it’s one thing when dark blues don’t match up...
AT LEAST THEY’RE TRYING

But when the Rams (or whoever)
have DARK Blue helmets...
and ROYAL Blue jerseys...
it’s freaking moronic

Just try to match the colors up as close as possible

It’s really not that complicated

I do not care about the colors of jerseys and helmets of nfl teams.

Hey, it starts with an "M"!

To be fair, I really only watch the World Series and a few other playoff games.

Do you care about Ricciardo getting Richarded yet again? If that guy had a car he could do some damage, and for some reason he's going to Renault next year...


“I don’t think ‘frustration’ is the word anymore,” Ricciardo told TV crews after the race. “Everything feels hopeless.

“You know, honestly, now where I am, I don’t see the point of coming on Sunday, I don’t see the point of doing the next two races.

“I haven’t had a clean race or weekend in so long.

“I’m not superstitious or any of this bulls**t, but… the car’s cursed. I don’t have any more words."


Can't say I blame him.

Don’t @ me

What’s your stance on Zemgus Girgensons on the 4th line? Or Ryan O’Reilly? Or Miller? Does Pominville continue his streak? Does Eichel deserve 10 mil? Does Reinhart need skating lessons ?

I think he’s making a good move going to a factory team. He’s going to have the same power plant but he will have it sooner with engineers that have seen it longer. He’s a great driver that’s for sure.

What do u think it takes to keep Skinner?
I’m guessing 8x8
Even if he does like it here,
I think the number is gonna have to be high to get him to forgo free agency

Similar $ and length to ek9
7 x 7?

I bet he likes the idea of pairing with eichel for the remainer of his career

I don’t mind z on the 4th line
I don’t give a single (frank) about ROR anymore
Ryan miller?
Not for long, great role player/vet, that’s about it
Never did, overpayment for sure, I said it from the beginning
He’s the only nhler I can remember where his pants get stuck in his shin pads....
Anything else?

IMO 7x7 or 7.5 is what it will be. Personally because he’s a winger I don’t think it’s much more

And so far he’s worth it. From a very smart twitter account

Seeing lots of #Sabres⁠ ⁠ fans (and media) screaming re-sign Skinner...I don't think they appreciate how delicate/difficult this could be.

Top 5v5 Goal Scorers from 2016-17 till right now.

1.Auston Matthews
2. Connor McDavid
3. Jeff Skinner

Your 7x7 pitches may be a pipe dream.

Yeah, I guess, I doubt Ferrari was blowing up his phone, and I think Bottas has another year on his deal, and Honda would be even worse than Renault, so maybe it was his only realistic option. It's just a shame, on tracks where the speed of Mercedes and Ferrari are hamstrung you can see how good of a driver he is, at least before his car blows up.

I think we’d all be happy with 7x7
Might cost more though
-1 year later
-Skinner doesn’t have the baggage EK9 had

What’s the highest you’d go?

Nope, bases covered I think.

Hmmm....Is Risto top pair?

I’m thinking it might be more also

In one league I started

Geronimo Allison - 2 points
David Njoku- 0 points
Chris Thompson - 4 points
TY Hilton - 4 points


That’s an unreal week in a league I have Luck and Thielen

Nope, bases covered I think.

Agreed. I think he’s been pretty good this year.

No Scandella-ish type mistakes

Yeah, it’s always tough to guess.

Depends who else signs before FA too.

If he’s all the sudden the #1 FA it changes things

If they change the regs anytime soon he could be in a great spot to capitalize ala Hamilton going to Mercedes when they sucked and everyone thought it was a dumb idea til they changed the regs.
