Any pics? I was at the game and didn't notice anything.

Not really a close up But gives you the idea

Gay.

Yet another disastrous change to our near perfect traditional look.

Run for 200 yards on the year I hope since it's equated to a single takeaway, lol.

I'd rather not have them, but if we're doing them I'd love to have an exact list of how they're earned.

Maybe they could be like merit badges and wear them on a vest or sash.

I love helmet stickers as a college football tradition. Glad to see it brought to Baylor.

Cool, thanks!

Side note, Rhule wears some strange shirts.

He was dressed oddly at the game. He wasn't wearing the unified brand at all. Not sure if he is trying to be like Bellichik of college football in terms of style or what......

Yeah, and what he had at the game was what he wore at Meet the Bears, too.

I don't really mind I just can't figure out what he's actually wearing. It's a hoodie, it's multicolored, it's either short sleeved or sleeveless with a white undershirt. So many possibilities and none are normal, lol.

As for the United thing I never really cared for the idea but at least it could've been executed correctly. The field isn't the same yellow, the band was in all black, the coaches have all kinds of stuff on, and even the soccer team wore grey their first game. I was fine with all the old stuff but this feels a lot like "One True Champion." Great for marketing but completely false in reality. Then again I'll still be in my old stuff, so...

Yes, this is something we haven't done before. Yes, it looks different than before. Repeat slowly after me while breathing in-and-out deeply: "New stuff is not a threat...New stuff is not a threat...New stuff is not a threat..."

Fell better? Good job!!!

I earned a sticker last game!!
No leftover Amber Ale in the fridge (i.e. no turnovers!)

Saint Grant gave out helmet stickers. They were stars. I believe a number of them appear on the helmet in this picture. I do think the stars looked better than the blind wolverine stickers, but then the gold helmets looked better too.

Stickers are motivating. I think it's great.

This could turn out to look cool. My only wish was that Nike would have come up with a cool secondary bear claw logo and we could use that instead of the bear head logo for this purpose.

Each star on this helmet represented each one he cracked.

I remember the first game he started as a Bear. By the end of the game the PA announcer would say, " and you guessed it...Mike Singletary on the tackle."

I'm generally okay with the idea of this to a point but let's not go too crazy. Any more than 3-4 stickers in addition to the several we already have will start to look like a high school team.

I think a Native American style bear claw would be a really cool logo for us. Kind of a tribute to the Huaco tribe for which Waco is named.

I could get down with that. Any pics you can share to show what you mean by "Native American style?"

I don't care if you repeat this, or how fast, if you do. New is not a trump card that replaces reasoned discourse and decisions, and new is not superior or automatically better, simply by virtue of its newness, no matter how special the originators think it is.

Nor is old superior or automatically better, simply because it's tradition or historic or the way it has always been, no matter how stuck in the past a bunch of old people on an internet message board are.

See? It goes both ways.

I loved getting stickers on my helmet.

Teaff awarded helmet stickers.

They looked good.

Yes Rhule's outfit was ugly and I agree that CBB and CMR aren't winning fashion awards. But if that's my biggest gripe then I am happy.

If we're going to have stickers then everyone gets one. No player will have more than another. No favoritism. After all the player holding the bag at practice contributes to another's success on the field. No "I" in team.

Flash as I was typing that I was thinking something along the lines of the logo for Disney's Brother Bear. That was the image in my head but really any tribal style bear claw would be cool. You can google image some. Anyway a tribal style bear claw would be a really cool secondary logo. So cool our players would probably get it tatted on them as well.

The brother bear one isn't too bad. The word "tribal" doesn't bring to mind anything I would be interested in. That seems more along a bro-tastic slow pitch softball jersey complete with tribal designs, flames, and as much diamond plate as you can design in.

I like helmet stickers and glad we have them (logo aside, which I am still not a fan of).

I'm not too sure what you are referring to. When I say tribal design I'm meaning basically a native American styled bear claw. I guess these native american styled animal symbols are more prevalent in the pacific northwest and the mountain west region. Anyway the bear claw would be cool.

I'm assuming this is a sarcastic swipe at the wussification of the youth in America today who get 'participation' trophies and play soccer games where score isn't kept.

He may have done what I did and google "tribal bear claw." A bunch of dumb looking tattoo designs show up. We really just need to "Nike up" a generic claw like this


Or the Teaff-era ones from our jerseys:



Simple, done.
