But yeah, nice! I liked last week's a lot, too. http://uniformcritics.com/football/college/cal-golden-bears/2003-2007-cal-blue-on-gold-uniform-throwback-retro-vintage/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAC MAN Posted September 21, 2017 Author Share Posted September 21, 2017 Guess CSU is desperate for attention in Colorado. Just imagine UCLA or Cal having California state flag theme on their uniforms. And since Pepsi blue color isn't found on Utah's campus, let's also rule out a flag themed uniform for the Utes as well.

MrBug708 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 How is putting the flag on the uniform a cry for attention? How many teams in the US have the American flag on their uniforms? Someone is getting a little miffed that CSU is getting the same kind of attention that CU is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestSider Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I don't think anyone outside of the Academies can actually pull off a flag on their helmet. The off putting thing about CSU's helmet, imo, is that the Colorado flag is not a particularly recognizable flag. So it kind of just looks like a random alternate. Then again, few state flags outside of California and Texas are truly recognizable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look at some state flags with letters on them and tell me which ones are they. Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Texas, California, Ohio, and South Carolina are good examples of what to do with a flag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really what were the state of Oregon founders thinking, let's make a ugly plain flag, and while we are at it let's make the ugliest state capital building you can think of. Oh and let's just for kicks name our two universities mascots the Beavers and the Ducks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't argue that the state of Oregon flag is terrible, and it has that stupid rodent on the back side (flags with two different sides are silly anyway), but Oregon's capitol building is one of the most beautiful in the nation, and i think it's the only art-deco style state capitol. it's quite unique. The original Salem building, which was gutted by fire in 1935, was a typical nondescript Greco-Roman neo-classical U.S. state capitol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orange Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 It's always in the eye of the beholder, but when I visited Des Moines when I was 10, I was amazed by their capitol building, and still love it. Des Moines in general is an impressive looking city for its size. It's only got about 100,000 more people than Eugene, but its skyline dwarfs Duckland.

Quack 12 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 "Hartford of the West." Des Moines has a metro area of more than 600,000. It's more like 250,000 bigger than Eugene. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAC MAN Posted September 22, 2017 Author Share Posted September 22, 2017 For someone who has seen his share of beauty in CO and DC, that Oregon State Capitol looks nice with those cherry blossom trees and I like the uniqueness of that as well.
