Boise Grizzlies Concept

Well the site has been a little dead lately, so I decided to do a Boise Grizzlies Concept, at first I was just going to move the striping from the last uniform to this new template but as I was doing that I kind of came up with a new design. It is similar to their last set but the striping is a little bit more modern, the pants stripe is supposed to match the jersey sleeves and I can actually make some like these in teambuilder. I kept the helmet the same although I could try out a different striping style if it would look better, I only did a home uniform since this is just a concept, if you like it Beast I can make a whole set and make any changes.

Home and Away Uniforms

Alternate Uniforms

Pro Combat Uniform

For the Pro Combats, I wanted to do something out there because most Pro Combats are, and so far we only have 2 really out there uniforms so I wanted to try and break the retro trend, I used TCU's template but I added a grizzly fur texture all over the uniform. For the pants I just tried something really pro combat-ish.

Aces Uniforms

Same jerseys, but with gradients for the regulars, then here's Pro Combat

The Originals
In 2008, the first team in the league was formed in Minor League Football. The Originals are the Las Vegas Aces, who were the first of many things in the league. First Team, first MVP, first champions. This is a throwback jersey representing the classic team. Gold helmets and pants break away from the traditional white. The iconic stripes are located on the sleeves. Led by John Parker Wilson, and DJ Hall, the Aces try to revert back to classic form.

Pioneers Unveil New Uniforms

The Lincoln Pioneers have unveiled their uniforms for Season 4. The uniforms are pretty much the same as last season, however there are several differences with the switch to Nike. An alternate uniform is introduced, a gold jersey in the same design as the home and road. An alternate white helmet and white pants are to be worn with. The Nike Pro Combat uniform is retro-based.

Alabama Gladiators Unveil 2011 Uniforms

New Uniforms with piping and and sword stripes on the shoulders. Red Helmet has a black facemask now too. The Pro Combat features a Gray helmet with a black finish around the edges of the helmet (to blend into the eye on the helmet). It is based off of Gladiator Armor, it will be worn in Week 5 @ Louisville. Season 2 Throwbacks will be worn for the Season Opener against the Quebec Polaires.

Home and Away

Alternate and Pro Combat

Season 2 Throwbacks (Click to see Action Shot)

Yeah we know Michael Vick won't be back next season but we are confident in our "replacement" plans, the new uniforms kind of represent a new era, since Vick was the Starting QB the past two seasons. We are also interested in acquiring a big name runningback this off-season. I edited the uniforms some to make all the sword stripes consistent, TC pointed out to me that they weren't.

Louisville Shockers Unveil 2011 Uniforms

Yeah I've been in a concept mood alot lately, and before the worst Iron Bowl I have ever watched started I worked on this for a couple hours and finished it after the game. I pm'ed BJ about new Shocker uniforms after the season, they have worn probably the most creative uniforms the past 2 seasons. I wanted to keep that going but make it less Under Armor-ish. So that's exactly what I did, I took inspiration from Virginia Tech's Pro Combat Uniforms. Basically replacing the stripes with Lightning Bolts. I also used Tech's number font because I think it fits the team well. Everything else is pretty similar to the last set. Same Helmet, and black and white pants that are interchangeable. Now to the Pro Combat, once again I used TC's Retro Uniform as a base. The Uniforms are "Electric Blue" Monochromes. I moved the stripes down to the undershirt once again, and then the pants use the same pattern but it is like LSU's Pro Combat stripes. I also included the normal primary logo on the pants. I tried using a real picture of lightning bolts as a texture to use on the helmets and numbers but I couldn't get it to look right.

Home and Away

Alternate and Pro Combat

Hope you like them BJ, I'm sure TC will be able to render it in Inkscape better then I could in Paint but I tried my best to make it look good. If you would like changes to anything just let me know.

I will probably go ahead and unveil Alabama's new uniforms tommorow even though I planned on waiting.

Navy Conn-cept

Okay, so I decided I would do a tweak to the Navy's Uniforms, along with a Pro Combat Uniform for them. First thing I did was switch the anchor logo with last year's Retro Anchor. It just looks a lot better IMO. I recolored it so the Navy could keep the original Navy and Yellow colors. The Uniforms are really the same, the cut is completely different, switching it to a Nike PC template. The logo is also added to the pants. The Alternate Yellow jersey has been tweaked a little bit, I reversed the collar colors to stay consistent with the rest of the set. Now to my favorite part of the Conn-cept: The Pro Combat Uniforms. I used TC's Retro set as a base, and I added some Pro Combat elements in here. The Helmet is different, using a Navy facemask and a solid Navy Anchor logo. The Jersey features Gold on Navy, the Flywire is actually colored Gold to bring in a modern twist. The Stripes are also moved to the undershirt to make room for the numbers on the sleeves. I also took the names off the back to throw in another retro element. The pants are solid gold with the Anchor logo on the sides and NAVY on the back.

Home and Away

Alternate and Pro Combat

If you like them let me know Throwback, I can also change anything if I need too. Also guys, check out the Photo section on the Nav Bar, it now has a slideshow of Players. I'm almost done with stats, and I should get around to doing some more PoTW photos this weekend. I also made an update to Hawaii's pro combats.

Hawaii Tropics Unveil 2011 Uniforms

The Tropics are getting new uniforms...again! The Tropics are known for wearing modern styled uniforms and they have changed uniforms all 4 seasons so far. This year Nike has come up with a uniform set using the "Swag Cut" created by me (see Miami in my NCAA Concepts). The Logo is sublimated on the back of the uniforms similar to Nike's SoD uniforms. The set includes a aqua Helmet with orange stripe and aqua pants. The alternates are based on last year's retro uniforms. And I have already posted the Pro Combat Uniforms.

Home and Away

Retro Alternates

Made an update to the regular uniforms, sizemore wanted me to change the number font back to what the used in Season 2.

Hawaii Pro Combat Concept

Well with the schedule announced and everything, I decided I would do a concept for the Tropics. Since sizemore wanted the helmets he made I tried basing the whole concept off of that and using something similar to Mykl's Japan concept. I used a Orange jersey since they don't have a regular orange alternate. I also put Hawaii on the chest which would be the first time the Tropics have ever put Hawaii on their uniforms. I kind of did 2 options here because I couldn't decide which one looked better, I did one with the Logos blown up on the sleeves and one without the logos on the sleeves. So sizemore if you like it you can decided which option you want to use or if you want me to make some changes just let me know. I also did new set for your regular season uniforms but I want TC to help me finish them so whenever he finds some time to do that we will post them (not rushing you at all TC).

Edit- Made an update, the sleeve logos aren't blown up as much. I also used a block font to match the "Hawaii" text, I added Hawaii to the pants too.

I still have a option without the Sleeve logos so if you rather have that sizemore let me know.

Season 4 Schedule

Okay guys, I worked on this for a couple of hours. I've always seen the Helmet Schedules for College Football teams and thought that would be a cool thing to do. So I have completed the Schedule for Season 4. Hopefully I didn't make any errors because I spent a lot of time working on it but I need everyone to check and make sure I didn't. Every team should have 5 Home games, 5 Away games, 2 Interleague (1 Home, 1 Away). I'll probably update the Excell sheet after new helmets come out and Droozer names his team so until then I'll wait to email the Excell sheet.

To View the Schedule Click Here

The only teams that I updated helmets for were Alabama and San Antonio, but like I said, when all the new uniforms come out I will edit it. The red text indicates Away games, while the black text indicates Home games. Lincoln-Louisville has a star by it because it will be the Globe Game this season making it a neutral site.

Pro Combat Week will be Week 5!!!

So that means.......

Home teams are Boise, Hawaii, Lincoln, Louisville, and Connecticut

Road teams are Droozer, Las Vegas, San Antonio, Alabama, and Quebec

If for some reason you want to wear light colored uniforms at Home then let me know so we can make sure the Road team for that game wears Dark uniforms.

And then in Week 1, Alabama and Quebec will be wearing Season 2 "Throwbacks". TC's idea to memorize his Championship team and I decided the Gladiators might as well throwback too.

Uniforms and other News!

Okay so everyone has checked in except Burmy, and I think it is safe to say that most people rather replace him anyways. Burmy has been an entertaining owner at some points but he doesn't ever check and I think we just need to have a more lively owner. I think everyone else is okay, but Throwback if you want to stay in the league you need to become more active or you may go out like Burmy.

Now one of the big changes this season is the move to Nike, Nike has taken over the Pro Football World, first they signed a deal with us and now they have signed a deal with the NFL. This year Nike will be giving all 10 Minor League Football teams new uniform cuts and a Pro Combat Alternate Uniform that will be worn in place during a Promotional Uniform Week. This season TC will be placing all of the uniforms on a Style Guide, and we have put together a Uniform history that he is going to start working on and posting to the site soon. This year to get everyone a little bit more involved we are going to have a Combo Schedule, which tells what combos you are going to wear each week. Also if you are getting new uniforms make sure you use 2 helmets, up to 4 jerseys (2 colored, 2 white) and 2 pants. If you want to add a throwback set you can, just make sure to tell me what week you want to wear it so I can change the teambuilder team. Alright I'm going to post the 10 teams, and I may post ideas I have for possible changes but you don't have to listen to them if you don't want haha.

Alabama - New Uniforms this season! I'm not unveiling them to everyone until TC gets done with the style guide.

Boise - New green jerseys in the style of their Away Uniforms, the green jerseys will also be the Home jerseys for this season. Also, tan Uniforms will be made as a alternate in place of brown this year. They are also replacing the tan pants with brown.

Connecticut - I like Throwback's classic uniforms, but I think he should switch his current Anchor Logo with TC's Retro logo, I'm sure he could swap the gold and yellow and use that logo on your current uniform set.

Las Vegas - Mykl has confirmed the Aces are getting new uniforms this season.

Lincoln - Bmac said that there will be minor changes to uniforms.

Louisville - The Shockers will most likely be getting new Nike Styled Uniforms.

Hawaii - New Nike Uniforms in the works, Retro Uniforms will be returning as Alternates this year.

Memphis - It would be nice to seperate them from Quebec, who knows with a new owner they may be rebranding.

Quebec - TC has confirmed new uniforms.

San Antonio - New Helmets with "Glow in the Dark" Flakes added into paint.

Retro Week Unveiling Extravaganza!

Hello and welcome to the MLF Retro Week Uniform Unveiling Extravaganza! So far only 3 of 10 teams have unveiled their uniforms, but now the remaining 7 will unveil their Retro Week uniforms in one mega-post.

Alabama Gladiators: Alabama owner and commish Big Mike wanted to combine elements of Alabama's two major football colleges for his team's Retro Week uniforms, the University of Alabama and Auburn. Not much else to explain here. Moving on...

Lincoln Pioneers: Before moving to Lincoln, the franchise was known as the Albuquerque 47s who made the MLF Championship in their one and only year of existence. This set pays homage to the team with the loudest color scheme in MLF history. Big Mike came up with the idea for these uniforms, basing them off of these old Steelers uniforms.

Boise Grizzlies: The Boise Grizzlies decided to use the Retro Week uniforms they wore in season one, and they were originally designed by Aces owner Michael Taylor.

Connecticut Navy: The Navy are participating in their first Retro Week. They will be wearing these uniforms that were a collaboration between Big Mike and TC. The sleeve stripes are a stylized version of those found on some actual Navy uniforms.

Louisville Shockers: Admittedly, these were the hardest to design. The primary logo is the shape of a lightning bolt that also contains the letters "LS". The uniforms are supposed to resemble the style of uniforms many teams had in the 1980's, with an old school Chargers twist.

Memphis Kings: In the first season of MLF, the Kings were a road team for Retro Week, sporting white jerseys and light blue pants. This season they are a home team. These are the same uniforms they wore back in season one, but they are the home version.

San Antonio Nightmare: The Nightmare will be wearing their season one uniforms, my personal favorites from all the uniforms worn that season. Even the ol' nosebleed horse will be rearing its ugly head again for Retro Week. I had to take some creative license to recreate the uniform on this template, but it is basically the same uniform.

That wraps up the unveilings! If you want changes to your team's uniforms please let me know before noon on Sunday, as I will be gone all next week.

Hawaii Tropics Retro Week Concept

Sizemore asked me to do the Retro Week jersey for the Tropics, and suggested I go the route of the Honolulu Hawaiians WFL team. So I literally did just that. Now I know they are kind of ugly, but so where a lot of old uniforms. I used these images for reference: pic 1, pic 2. For the logo I used a palm tree in a circle, using the shade of brownish-maroon found in the Hawaiians logo for the trunk of the tree, and the orange of the Hawaiians logo for the coconuts. Instead of using red, I stuck with the Tropics aqua. For the uniforms I did exactly what the Hawaiians used to wear, modifying where it was needed. C&C? I can change whatever you want, Sizemore.

And if anyone else needs their Retro Week uniform done, I can do it if you want.

Polaires and Aces Unveil Retro Week Uniforms!

The Polaires and Aces released the uniforms they will be wearing for MLF's Retro Week today at packed press conferences in both Quebec and Las Vegas.

The defending champion Polaires have decided to throw back to the days when they were known as the South Carolina Red Hawks. These uniforms were worn by the Red Hawks during MLF's first Retro Week that took place in season one. The original throwback uniforms for the Red Hawks were designed by Alabama owner Big Mike. Quebec owner Neil "TC" Lommel commented on his team's Retro Week uniforms saying, "I think we made the right decision by going with uniforms once worn by this franchise, it makes for a truer Retro Week experience we feel our fans will appreciate."

The Aces Retro Week uniforms were designed by Quebec owner Neil "TC" Lommel with the approval of Aces owner Michael Taylor. They are very similar to the original retro week uniforms worn by the Aces, as well as their current uniforms. Elements from the San Francisco 49ers were also taken to create an 80's feel. The Aces owner was unavailable for comment.

Hawai'i Tropics Unveil New 2010 Uniforms

Edited by Big Mike: Hope you don't mind me replacing the team builder pictures Sizemore but I decided to do a rendering of the uniforms on paint. I just like having everyone's uniforms in my MLF folder so I figured I'd do this (I used Oilers font by the way because its round and the 88 on it matches Team builders).

Alabama Gladiators will bring back the "Bear Blood" Alternates

Well the first big announcement is that the Gladiators will bring back a alternate uniform set that they wore last season. After Alabama beat Boise 24-7 in the uniforms last season. They have decided to bring them back for the Polaires this season. It is a one time thing, these uniforms will not see the light of day after this game (unless we do good in them and bring them back next season). "It was a huge fan attraction last season and after Quebec owner TC told me that they would brake out a all-white storm trooper look. We thought that we would try and counter the attack." Exclusive "Bear Blood" fan shirts will also be sold for the game. It will also be the 3rd time Alabama has gone monochrome this season (yes I know this is the 3rd game). It is the 2nd time they are going head-to-toe monochrome after doing so in week 1 (All-Black). The Red Helmets and Pants have been rumored to be worn with the white jerseys against Las Vegas in the Globe Game. When Harbison was asked about this possible combo he said "Well we are wanting to do something different for such a big game, but we will have to wait and see how we do with the look against the Polaires."

The game will likely be Friday, although there is a possibility I will be outta school Thursday (I started back today, and they are saying we might actually have snow!) If so, I will sim the game Thursday around noon, gotta watch my Tide thursday night.

Veterans Day Uniforms

This are just screenshots, I didnt save any of them so I could make sure everyone wants to wear them, its an owners decision, so some can wear them and some might not want to. The sleeves are supposed to reflect Camoflauge, when I do photoshops they will be camoflauge because thats what Under Armor is doin for all of the College teams. I think everyone should wear them just because its a one time thing and its just for fun, plus if this was real life it would be for a good cause :P

Home Uniforms (Connecticut has special Navy Uniforms based on Navys Uniforms from last years Army-Navy Game)

Away Uniforms

Nightmare Unveil Uniforms

The other one is being deleted

Here are the Fall 2009 uniforms for the San Antonio Nightmare, designed by genius Nole42.

Alabama Gladiators New Identity

Well its been a long time in the process, at first it started as a new Secondary Logo but turned into rebranding the Gladiators logos and many other teams as well. The Gladiators have a whole new logo set to unveil today, created by Elliot. The Primary is a 3-d Gladiator Helmet which is a update of the former Primary logo. The Secondary is a G with a Sword down the Middle and the Wordmark is a beveled font, which we are extremely happy with. We think the new logos gives us one of the best sets in the league and with new logos comes new uniforms as well.

Logo Sheet

Despite the fact I liked last years uniforms, I decided to go a new direction, it's preety much a update of the retro set from last season, the sword stripe moves to the sleeves and it has a consistent piping outline around it on every jersey. The pants are preety much the same, however they go all the way to the end of the pants and they are pointed, the collar also has a sword effect. The Helmet is the same except the stripe no longer pointed and the new logo. The number font is a modified block font. We really like the new uniorms, the TAtC are going to be the same however I will get a new rendering of them up soon.

Polaires Action Template

I put the Polaires new uniforms on an action template to give everybody a different perspective. The uniforms on the top right and top left are the ones that are being voted on in the poll.

Here's a link. I'm thinking the navy top helps balance out the colors better. No light blue socks, I tried it, horrible. Also if you want your uniforms on this template I'll gladly give it a shot. I just need the logos in vector or just a large picture of them and the number font.

Grizzlies Unveil New Logos and Uniforms!

BOISE, ID- In a spectacular press conference in the team headquarters today, Grizzlies Owner Zane "Beast Mode" Gresens unveiled the team's new indentity, which is following the trend of new logos designed by Elliot. Here it is:

He also unveiled the team's new uniforms as well.

"The Green unis are the primary home uniforms, the white are for the road, and the black unis are for special occasions." said Gresens.
