Our newest Sunday series is stepping outside the box to break up the stream of concepts designed for existing teams. This week Scott Dempsey presents his idea for a southwestern team called the New Mexico Atomics.
It's the bomb.
I'll show myself out.
College Saturday picks up with Matt McElroy's take on the University of Michigan. Here's a look at the team's existing jerseys.
D'Arcy Murphy gives us a little something to freak out about on this Friday. He writes:
I opted to go with brown as the primary colour seeing as buffalo are that very colour. I kept yellow/gold as part of the scheme and ditched blue altogether in an attempt to create a more unique brand for the Sabres. The third sweater design borrows from a past Icethetics concept in that the buffalo and crossed sabres are free standing.
What do you think of blue-less Sabres?
San Jose Sharks fans made a bit of a stink when the team opted for black jerseys in the playoffs once again — despite having created teal ones that matched those famous "weight-saving" measures. But given the collapse we witnessed by a team poised to sweep their way through the quarterfinals, it's probably safe to say we won't be seeing playoff black in the bay area for the foreseeable future.
Having said all that, Ryan Yuck shows us that the Sharks can have a sharp black jersey that uses teal as nothing more than a trim color. Well, I like it anyway. You?
Kevin Dion sent in this concept prior to the Coyotes announcing their name change. As an alternate jersey, it would fit much better with the team's existing home and road aesthetic. Plus, change "Phoenix" to "Arizona" and they could wear it this fall.
