Two or less Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 From another board. Check this out... not sure how much truth there is to it but it seems pretty credible. Not sure why the dude would make something like this up..... the slug will be gone next year. i think this is old news by this point for most of us. HOWEVER there will be a 40th anniversary NEW 3rd jersey. the slug will be gone/may replace the B with sword as a shoulder patch. the jersey will be royal blue with "Buffalo" in script and a small crossed swords logo offset to the right, along with "1970." i cannot divulge my source on this information but you can rest assured this will be happening next season. if you don't believe me search my post history, i think i was the first person to bring up the slug logo before an actual image leaked (i'm sure this third will leak shortly, there is a PDF of it floating around but it is highly protected, obviously), by saying it looked like a buffalo mixed with a san diego chargers logo. i was hoping for a gold jersey with script, but at least we will finally get a scripted jersey. i've always been fond of them.

LabattBlue Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 Please. No. Not this again. You are quickly approaching post # 7000. Will it be memorable or more of the same grumpy old bastard ranting? :D
Stoner Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 ?? I'm just with Roby. For the love of Christ, can they just leave the uniform be? (After burning the slug, that is.)
Stoner Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 You are quickly approaching post # 7000. Will it be memorable or more of the same grumpy old bastard ranting? :D I'll try for both. That number is pretty scary and seems to be directly proportional to my waistline.
darksabre Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 If it's not blue and gold with crossed swords and an albino buffalo, I don't care.
wonderbread Posted February 5, 2010 Report Posted February 5, 2010 I'm just with Roby. For the love of Christ, can they just leave the uniform be? (After burning the slug, that is.) You have grown especially negative lately! Just calling it like I see it. :(
TM8-PL16 Posted February 6, 2010 Report Posted February 6, 2010 well if the slug does end up as the shoulder patch, I won't be buying any new jersey... they just need it to go away 100%
Stoner Posted February 6, 2010 Report Posted February 6, 2010 If it's not blue and gold with crossed swords and an albino buffalo, I don't care. Roy's and Miller's?
Stoner Posted February 6, 2010 Report Posted February 6, 2010 You have grown especially negative lately! Just calling it like I see it. :( Aren't you tired of the uniform game yet?
wonderbread Posted February 6, 2010 Report Posted February 6, 2010 Aren't you tired of the uniform game yet? I'm just tired period.
Stoner Posted February 6, 2010 Report Posted February 6, 2010 I'm just tired period. And bored with yourself?

So, something like this:
blugold43 Posted February 6, 2010 Report Posted February 6, 2010 :censored: this. i hate the slug as much as anyone, but i'd like quinn to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the franchise by adding some first-line talent for a change.
LabattBlue Posted February 6, 2010 Report Posted February 6, 2010 well if the slug does end up as the shoulder patch, I won't be buying any new jersey... they just need it to go away 100% This wouldn't surprise me one bit and I still believe(just a hunch) that it was Quinn's call on the slug originally.

will Posted February 7, 2010 Report Posted February 7, 2010 And bored with yourself? this team sure could use just a little help.
Stoner Posted February 7, 2010 Report Posted February 7, 2010 this team sure could use just a little help. :thumbsup:
Eleven Posted February 7, 2010 Report Posted February 7, 2010 This wouldn't surprise me one bit and I still believe(just a hunch) that it was Quinn's call on the slug originally. I have it from a source within the organization (don't you hate that? but I'm serious) that it definitely was Quinn's call on the slug originally, and that he was angry that not everyone embraced his choice.

Oh yeah? Well, I have secret, never before seen photos from inside the meeting where the decision was made. I think this one says it all ...

I know this is just "rumor", but if true it goes to show how clueless Quinn is, on top of being bad at marketing. I despise the Slug too, but if I was in Quinn's job I sure as heck would have collected some data from my fan base (what a concept)... I can see Quinn now with actual data in his hands; "oh, wow, 90% of the people that buy tickets to Sabre games just despise the logo I like - maybe I shouldn't do it?".
