It's gonna happen and it will look a heck of a lot like those mock-ups. I bet we'll see exactly that around the league in 5 years. It will also happen in the NBA in that time-frame.
It'll be kinda like the Alberta flag on the jersey. Some people will kinda like it in concept, most people won't really like it. You'll stop noticing it for a while and then every now and then you'll see an image, or it will jump out at you and you'll be like "God-damn that sucks."
And life will go on, and some old curmudgeonly people will stop buying jerseys out of protest, but most people won't, and in 20 years we'll have become accustomed to it.
