    Sick of the purple & red?

    Does anyone feel that T.O. needs new jerseys and or a logo change? Or maybe just make the red uniforms the regular road ones? I was bored and messing around with jersey colours... take a look:

    Time for a change? Or should we stick to how it is...

    I think the Raps are in the middle of an awkward change of jersey colours. I don't like the blue because it reminds me of the Memphis jersey, They should change the logo to just the claw and the colours to red, white, and black.

    I think the Raptors red alternate is one of the best jersies in the league.

    Keep it the same, it's original. After they got rid of the Barney dinosaur their jerseys were/are great.

    They need to go back to a red and white color scheme with a little gray. Doesn't seem original though since a few teams have white/red in their color schemes (Blazers, Bulls, Heat, Sixers...kinda)

    They should just take the purple out, and keep it strickly white, and red (Canada flag colors), with black

    Strictly white and red would be too much Houston Rockets you've got to add another colour in there... I would love a home jersey with white, black lettering, red outline or grey, and add some red and grey... sickness..

    amen.

    And after the bucnh of jersey chagnes the NBA haed last year(they pushed blue HARD) we don't need a blue jersey.

    I think our colours are unique, and look good. The Raptors organization never OD'd on any colorus and personally. I love the uniforms right now.

    If anything, we could use a logo change(you know the logo with the big raptor in the middle, the claw's still good), but I don't think its necessary.

    Keep the colour. Maybe just use the 'alternative' Canadian red jersey more often on the road. As for the big raptor in the middle, just say 'No'.

    I was thinking we should use the Red jerseys as our away jerseys and purple as alternate. I really like our Red jerseys, and plus it would give our home and away colours white and red which is Canada's flag.

    Personally I think that our Jersey look awesome, I don't think that is what we have to change, I think we just need to start winning [​IMG] . Then questions like are we sick of our Jerseys will go away. Personally I think that both home and away jerseys are nice and the alternative is totally representing Canada. It Can't get any better.

    Do you guys miss the old Raptors starting when they had Raptors tearing down Toronto and running through the Locker room?

    ^ Don't even joke about that... everyone realizes they are so bad that we don't even have a retro night, b/c noone wants to see them ever again...

    For some reason our old school dino jersey(s) is Corey Maggette's favourite jersey.

    I lime our old blue ones, even with the dinosaur...Vince Carter rocked that jersey well haha.

    I like our pruple ones simply because the color scheme is nice with the purple up front and black in the back. They'll change it up eventually, but I think just making the playoffs is more imprtant right now.

    By the way, its been 5 years since we changed the jerseys :| wow...time flies

    that would have been hot....

    anyway, i like the home jerseys illistic made. they're sick. and i've always been a fan of the red alternates.
