hey if jordan comes around this is my general "hey Jordan can I pitch a gawker piece about how Fred armisen and a bunch of bezos jrs turned my perfectly nice and quiet city of mopey guitar players into an upscale sportsbar circus for brocoders and podcasters who can't get past level 2 of their intro to improv classes" thanks in advance bud

i'll read that tonight and talk to some longtime residents and see if i can find a worthwhile angle, but i'm sure the mercury and the willamette week have prob done this article a hundred times already. but it might be interesting towrite it for an audience that isn't people who already live here and have the same complaints.

these new stephs are getting ROASTED on twitter lol
― k3vin k., Friday, 10 June 2016 02:36 (eight years ago) link
hahaha been watching that. tho in a v perverse way this thread and those twitter roasts make me want to get some of these shoes. i firmly fall into the unintentional normcore fashion aesthetic and have purchased more than my share of clothes at costco. my most recent sneakers were $12 dollar store nike knockoffs.

I'm probably too old even for regrettable dad sneakers. I played ball in the street. Badly. In whatever were the cheapest sneakers available. When Phil Knight was still selling shoes from the trunk of his car.

For real y'all ever put on a pair of Nike Monaco type jams, can't speak to that one specifically but some of their dad shoes are some comfortable ass kicks

ESPN should amend the "how Nike lost steph" article though and just add a photo of those with the price is right you lost theme playing on a loop

not a fan of big elaborate side stripes especially when theyre on the jersey too, nor of logos on the shorts and that one is lol huge and embarassingly shoehorned into the stripe, good branding design/bad fashion design imho
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 June 2016 17:08 (eight years ago) link
also theres black in the logo but grey in the uni wth

feeling the black one, interest to see how it looks on court with the gray down one side only
― moistest hoist (Spottie), Wednesday, 15 June 2016 17:11 (eight years ago) link
also lol SAC on a jersey is classic
kinda weird they didn't use black a little more in the details yea. almost feels like nash-era suns unis
― moistest hoist (Spottie), Wednesday, 15 June 2016 17:12 (eight years ago) link
that font is not inspiring confidence in me, i liked it before but its looks p out of place on the jersey
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 June 2016 17:13 (eight years ago) link
u know its against the nba rules for a team to revert back to an old uniform which is funny since theyre universally better
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 June 2016 17:14 (eight years ago) link
i did not know that.
― moistest hoist (Spottie), Wednesday, 15 June 2016 17:15 (eight years ago) link
the font is very short and stocky
logo on the shorts is def a travesty

ya not quite sure what the logic is no doubt something to do w selling merchandise xxp
― lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 June 2016 17:16 (eight years ago) link
they want to have the old unis for throwback purposes prob, then sell the old and the new

celtics did manage to change their road unis to read boston instead of celtics which is a reversion to the russell era

yeah that stuff about not being able to go back to old logos is weird. iirc the hawks wanted to go back to the old red/yellow color scheme but the NBA wouldn't let them so that's why they ended up with red and highlighter yellow.
