Custom Team Question
 

I have finally decided to create my first custom team. I have decided to go with a quasi fantasy “custom” team. Do you all remember the classic football movie re-make, “The Longest Yard”? I always thought the convict’s Mean Machine uniforms were sweet. I have combed through multiple images on the internet looking for images clear enough to submit for decals but I cannot locate anything. Adding to my issues, are my very limited computer skills.

Does anyone know of any links or images with Mean Machine images/logos that are clear enough to submit to one of the forum's decal experts?hlmt$

If I'm not mistaken, in the original movie with Burt Reynolds, the Mean Machine was a simple black and white uniform. The helmets were all black with no logos. All you need to do is find the right font for the numbers. Simplicity at it's best. drl$$

I think Mean Machine was above the number on the front of the uniform. The font is a basic full block I believe. You can also go to Wikipedia and look up the movie and you will get the names of players from both the Mean Machine and the guards team. There were a few ex- NFL players who were in the movie. One of my favorite sports movies.

Mean Machine...
 

> Black helmet/gray face mask...No logos on helmet
>black jersey;typical number font-all white/no trim;
front and back;NO sleeve/shoulder numbers;
MEAN MACHINE in red caps. across BACK of jersey
above number;NO name on front of jersey;
>White pants-NO stripes;
> black & white socks;
> black shoes
I was on a bar- "dart" team around this time and that was the
name of our team.We even had black t-shirts with MEAN MACHINE
printed across the back in red with the number 50/ double-bulls-eye
on the back.Good times....Great movie.The remake doesn't come
close.........

Custom Team/ Uniform....
 

I have always thought about doing up a team using
the colors and number font from the uniforms from
the original ROLLER BALL,with James Cann.Neat
color scheme but great number fonts.........
My bro,Rich Parks and I event discussed the idea
of making an electric-rollerball rink with teams and
all,based off of EF...Never happened though.But we
had some neats ideas and discussions on it.
