It's Coming... 09.27.08

Dear god i hope so...we need some North Carolina blue and black, and no purple please.... i would be satisfied with all gold.

Obviously you taste in fashion dublicates your taste in linguistics.

I've merged the two ongoing jersey speculation threads. In just a couple of hours, the waiting will be over and we'll all know what they look like.

 

[One and Done]

They're up, check the team store...not bad.

 

[IceColdKings]

Yup, the Sacramento Team Store posted them up all ready on their website before the unveiling time.

 

[Kings Faithful]

Those are pretty slick! Definitely my favorite of the new jerseys!

 

[91sickness]

The Away jerseys are pretty sweet, Im not too high on the home jerseys. Its the same font that used to be on the away jerseys AND used on the monarchs jersey....pretty lame to use it for both teams. O well tho.

 

[SDKing]

I like the home jerseys a lot. For the first time in a long while in fact

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I still disagree with putting "Kings" on the away jerseys and "Sacramento" on the home jerseys. The home fans know they're from Sacramento.

Ha, you just beat me to it. I do find that very strange.

I'm not liking the home unis at all.

I think I like the home ones. One second I say 'Those are awesome' then waiver back to '..eh..'

The away jerseys arent doing it for me. The side stripe should be black with white accent to match the lettering.

Still better than the last ones we had though.

 

[GeraldWallace#3]

dang, I absolutley love these jerseys I do not know why everybody is "hating" but I love these.

Agreed. However, i really like the Home jerseys.

 

[Bricklayer]

I generally don't care about jerseys, but would have to say I generally like these. That white stripe on the away jersey is a bit much perhaps -- reminscient of the underside of a deer. And I really wish they would do away with that pansy shade of "pretty" purple they have been fascinated with the last few years. But the sharp angled accents work for me.

 

[D-Mass]

I mostly like them...I've just never been a fan of stripes that end in a point in the middle of a jersey. I'd rather see the underarm stripes go all the way to the shorts...but hey, I'm 33 years old and am likely no longer hip...

...as evidenced by my use of the word "hip."

I attended today's event at Arden Mall. I would have to say there was a pretty good sized crowd. Below are pictures I took and I will upload videos in a few minutes.

Jason Thompson was very cool to meet. Dude has a smile that reminded me of another power forward we used to have. I just hope the smile comes with the talent, but that's wishful thinking on my part.

I honestly don't care for the home jersey. I mean, why does the home jersey have "Sacramento" on the front and the road jersey does not? I guess it might grow on me, but the road jersey is nice. Much better than the gold uniform. Still, I wish we had the black jersey. Enjoy.

I'm a lot older and am definitely not "hip," which might explain why I agree with your post.

I couldnt agree more! I mean c'mon, if you're going to re-design new uni's, why not go all the way...and not just 1/2 way. Isnt the idea of promoting your team to do it on the ROAD to other fans and not at home?? I still wish we would go back to the ones we wore back in the mid 90's-02. The color scheme and design were sweet, especially the black road uni's!

 

[Circa_1985_Fan]

They almost look like PRACTICE jerseys, actually.

 

[MassachusettsKingsFan]

i like the home jerseys besides the blue name .. should be black imo

 

[=LarryLegend=]

i have never liked the road jerseys until now. i will be supporting a thompson and getting my wife a donte.

surprised the bobbys were not there.

 

[Bballkingsrock]

What were the players autographing? What was avalible to sign for the players?

Beno, Cisco and JT were signing anything given to them such as jerseys, T-shirts, hats, basketballs, pictures, etc. If you did not bring anything the Kings provided a sheet of paper from a writing pad that has the Kings logo although it was from last season.

 

[Mike0476]

Four videos taken from today's Kings event. I just uploaded them so if they're not playing please give it a little bit of time to finish processing. Thanks and enjoy.

the look sweet in the pictures, but they even look sweeter in the videos!

and the purple is just perfect for me.. ive always wanted the purple to be darker..

NICE =)

 

[barndoggie]

I like them but the home looks like a college jearsey

 

[RaY Z]

actually comapring it to the old away jersey, the purple isnt much lighter... but its the shade of purple they use, that im loving!

 

[tradepeja]

The away ones are a huge improvement.

Home ones were meh, still are meh.

So, overall an improvement.

 

[SLAB]

Just watched the vids.

The away jerseys are so close to being awesome...That darned white stripe doesn't work with the black lettering/numbers. So close.

And Im still split on the home...On one sec, off the next.
