Doesn't sound good if you're a fan of teal like I am:

 

Q. Will the team have new uniforms?

 

A. We’re two years away, but we started working on a new look for the uniforms, new colors, something special for the new home. Teal is a color for the ’90s. You have to be cognizant of your time. The seats will be a beautiful shade of blue.

Just as long as It's not replaced with orange, It's all good.

Sounds like the hint for uniform color is the color of the seats

as an outsider looking in, i like teal, it makes the marlins stand out in the endless shades of blues and reds everyone wears. i wouldn't want to see the marlins color scheme to become blah like the rest of them. orange would make it worse, i'll puke if they go with orange and blue.

maaaaaaaaaan. is this team even still gonna be the Marlins?

If we hadn't won two World Series wearing teal I wouldn't mind. Would the New York Yankees ditch navy blue?

Teal is so 90's? Man, this new color scheme better be some crazy new color of the future then.

Why did we have to get the modern art guy as our owner?

 

Hell, as if he wasn't obsessed with orange, which is a color for 16th century Europe.

So we're basically becoming the Rays in blue? This is stupid. Teal is a color of the 90s if its used all over the helmet and shirts like Chuck Carr in 1993... teal MUST still be some part of the uniform as an accent. I can't wait for the new ballpark but I shudder to think of our atrocious new uniforms

Rays are in blue.

 

 

Though, nothing about blue says they will be atrocious, it's not an atrocious color. I'm more worried about looking bland. Though, if it's really bad, we might get lucky enough that every hates it and they change it after a few years, like what happened with the Stros in the 90s when they went to that horrific blue-gold mix.

I want teal :(.

Someone wanna mock up a Black Marlins jersey into a Blue Jersey----

And alter tha Black in our Uni's into Blue.

 

I get the feeling we'll be going the way of the yankees, and the "F" Chest patch will be back but with an "M".

Screw it, I did it in paint. I don't think the colors are bad, and it helps us stand out.

Replace Florida with Miami, and the F with M as nessesary.

If we go more towards the colors of a marlin:

 

Black

Silver

And a nice rich blue something deeper than a Royal/French blue

Teal IS a color of the 90s. When in reference to the 90s Marlins uniforms. And the state of Florida. But teal can be done properly so that it remains a team color. Like the teal they currently use. It's more of a sea green. And it's a trim on the uniform, not a main color. It can still work. I really just hope we dont end up with a navy blue jersey... it's so overplayed. Same goes to red. Anything else but those two colors... (and of course black as a main color).

I'll gladly accept the blue if we at least get a throwback Friday or something like the Brewers do.

Just to clear that up... I obviously know the Rays are blue. I should have said that we're becoming LIKE the Rays in blue. Anyways, I just think they'd be atrocious in the sense of blending in with half the league as it is. The Marlins need to stand out like they always have, blue isn't the way to do it. We wouldn't even be distinguishable from our state's other team.

LOL

 

Unless I like the new uniforms and colors, I refuse to buy anything but "vintage" Florida Marlins gear.

Curious, do you guys think there is a chance he will change the team name?

It seems like to be that most Marlins fans like the teal.

 

Part of me wonders if it might be effective to organize somehow and lobby for teal to remain the dominant color of the franchise. I'm not sure what that would entail but I think it would take more than one of those stupid online petitions to convince him.

 

On the other hand, Loria might not be inclined to listen to the fans on this matter since they never show up at the games.

Teal=a color of the 90's? Since when?

.

.

I think when Loria says teal is a color of the "90's"?.....what that might be code for is teal is so Dolphins.

Like I said many times before, don't make the f***ing color orange. No Orange in 2012!

As Loria says he spent time in Barcelona recently, I think it's safe to say that you can find the new Marlins color somewhere in this building. One of the more colorful of the famous Gaudi buildings that dot that city. You can already see the influence this building had on Loria. The window color is an exact match for the seat color.

You can kill me if we look like rainbow fish.

lol...I don't think rainbow. But I do think that I'm on to something with the Gaudi Building. When I read Barcelona, I thought of Gaudi as an inspiration. He is THE most famous architect "ever" really, in his use of color in modern architecture. That Miro thing that he mentioned was a feint. Miro's a painter. Loria's designing a work of art architecture....not painting a picture. And the window color is an exact hue color match for the seats, isn't it? I think Loria will match it up with one of the other colors in that building. Maybe not in the uniforms, but we could have railings and columns that match up.
