If the assumption that VW was one of seven kit sponsors they need to start announcing those soon, unless they’ll be unveiled with the jerseys. Not sure how I feel about all jerseys being released at once. I'm surprised we haven't heard anything about shirt sponsors yet. Might be a hard sell for a new league: hard for the sponsors to know what they are actually getting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garbage films?! Stop it! Braveheart, everything by Bruce Willis, Starship Troopers, half of the Star Trek movies, Arnold Schwarzenneger did like a million flicks in the 90s! C’mon! And... garbage CGI wasn’t a thing yet... garbage music?!?! Grunge anyone?!?!?!?!!!!!! Ha ha... but yeah, the fashion wasn’t the greatest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha ha... but yeah, the fashion wasn’t the greatest. 90s were a super mixed bag for film. but most of the highs were under similar highs from the 70s and 80s and have been passed by films of the oughts and evens 10s. Grunge was good but grunge also derailed alt rock big time and allowed the space for rap to surpass rock as the most popular genre by allowing lowly regarded post grunge to dominate rock radio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just finished watching Eyes Wide Shut and Fight Club again....the late 90s had some good eye opening thematic movies. Obviously it doesn’t come close to the greatest year in movie history which was 2007 but still, some good stuff came out back then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BringBackTheBlizzard Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 18 hours ago, ted said: Yeah it could be Germany c. 1970's: Even at the time the MLS kits looked bizarre and the first set of names like Burn, Wiz and Clash were being widely ridiculed, so if CanPL follows a similar trajectory in the years ahead we might still see some old CSL or NASL names get dusted off and recycled and some European sounding names thrown into the mix. Definitely hilarious but not sure that a youtube clip featuring Gunter Netzer should be taken as typical of West Germany in the 1970s. ted 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 All of the jerseys will be unveiled on April 4. There's an event in Toronto for the league as a whole, but per @Winnipeg Fury's posts it appears the teams will also do their own unveils in their home cities.

BuzzAndSting Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 Potential FC Edmonton jersey posted on a local soccer shop Instagram? Unlikely to be the jersey because I doubt Dylan Powley would be posing with it before the launch. And it’s pretty boring. matty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
