@sportslogosnet So what about Shane Doan who played his entire career with one franchise? (Jets -> Coyotes)

@AYGBoomer @darealconman They have everything they need. Just jettison the red jammie pants and the white socks. Translation replace white pants for home, add red socks to white road unis.

@NFLosophy They did not when Patriots were kicking. Away team field goal % during Belichick’s tenure was the lowest in the league.

Margin between Patriots kicker and opponent kicker was highest in league.

🚨 TRENDING: The Patriots reportedly used a clever trick at Gillette Stadium to potentially throw off opposing kickers.

On opponent FGs, the video board showed a reverse camera angle that created an offset second set of yellow uprights behind the real goalposts, potentially making kicks more disorienting.

After reviewing dozens of examples and 52 Patriots FG attempts, the illusion reportedly appeared on New England’s own kicks ZERO times.

Much has been made of the Patriots’ mysterious “Pink Stripes.” How about yellow ones?

I went through more than a decade of TV broadcasts and uncovered a diabolically clever piece of Patriots gamesmanship.

When opposing kickers lined up at Gillette Stadium, the video board displayed a reverse view of the kick, placing a second, offset set of yellow uprights directly behind the real ones.

In windy conditions, even the orange streamers on the video board appeared to point in the opposite direction from those atop the physical uprights, making the illusion even more disorienting.

I found dozens of examples. In the same games, I reviewed 52 Patriots field goal attempts.

The illusion appeared on Patriots kicks exactly zero times.

We actually tried copying the idea when I was in Philadelphia, but the location of the video boards at Lincoln Financial Field made it nearly useless.

It is the perfect encapsulation of the Patriots dynasty. No detail was too small, and no possible edge was left unexplored.

We talked about this tactic and more on tonight’s episode of the Paganetti and Underhill show, out now on Youtube

@SunsUniTracker @Suns Was hoping maybe sunburst shorts might be in the mix

[Eric @EricCThompson]

@Suns @SunsUniTracker Could this uni mean anything?

[Eric @EricCThompson]

@Suns Wish this could be incorporated into a shaded or air conditioned entertainment area linking Chase field and the arena.

@GrahamRossini Any DFA reno updates?

@NHLNewsArchive @sportslogosnet Looks like a cruise ship in periscope crosshairs

[Josh Reynolds @JoshReynolds24]

Josh Hart needs to send De'Aaron Fox the most expensive bottle of wine on planet earth…

If Fox pulls the ball out, eats some clock, gets fouled & hits freethrows, we all look back at this miss…

Now, not a single human will remember this in a week

[Eric @EricCThompson]

@SunsUniTracker They would be, but I am not sure they would allow anyone to sit there as it is part of the batter's eye ☹️

[Super 70s Sports @Super70sSports]

This motherfucker ran a solid kingdom and I think some acknowledgement of that is overdue. Low crime, clean streets, quality monarch.

[Eric @EricCThompson]

@SleeperAZCards @NFLPA Don't understand their resistance to white pants, but even just changing the socks to white would be a major improvement

[NBA Memes @NBAMemes]

Naz Reid and Wemby if they played in the 70's
