    I'm sorry I brough such a depressing topic into the blog.  A little back story without too much detail. I met my friend 12 years ago during an AF commissioning program. He was on top of the world

I don’t dislike it, but it’s just piggy-backing off of a similar font direction everyone else is leaning: uniform, block-lettering with no borders or shadowing depth; but instead with weird, aggressively spiky edges in the letter "elbows”.

This is the current design fad that teams will shy away from in 10-15 years once it’s heavily outdated (similar to the cartoon mascot logos that were a fad in the 90’s… which we’re still using ours for some reason)

This crap is horrible. I hate this conformist corporate BS.
 

Why is every team using the same font? So unimaginative.

While money helps, taste does matter after all.

Agree.  It's all about maintaining a consistent brand across all teams. Regardless of how it looks

I agree with this. It's boring and unimaginative, but also replacing something very much outdated at this point. IMO it's not good. But it's better.

As someone that isn't artistic in any way, shape or form that is the most generic BS that even I could have made. I especially hate the indent whatever the F on the E's.

All in all absolutely disgusting! 

When you are ordering your new merch with the awesome new word logo, remember to use the fanatics link from here to earn the boards money.

If I order it and return it, does that still count?

🤣

Happy Thursday everyone!

I don't see the issue.

I much prefer hyper-traditional logos and word marks, like what the Packers or the Chiefs maintain. They are always in style (until the Chiefs become the Chefs), and we have some great examples of timeless logos in our history.

Take this for instance:

It’s a tiny bit NSDAP, but otherwise is a simplistic and timeless styling that can be updated to any generation.

yup, posted the same thing a bit ago.  Didn't include some of the ones you did.  It's the new thing and it will be the old thing sooner than later.  Lazy all around.

Not to pile on after the amazing Eagles logo, but official now.

 

The Saints said, hey Eagles, let us help take some of the heat off you for the logo.

Flyers are horrible!

Move the franchise to Canada.

Not to be outdone by the Eagles or Saints, MLB said we got this.

Soccer sucks.  Who cares. 

Shut up dummy 

I means he not wrong about the flyers being horrible tho. I fully expect fletcher gets canned next year as he tries to make more big splashes for a team not ready to compete to save his job. And they are still not very good. Then the next GM comes in and cans Torts a year in

I mean. I mean. F him. He’s probably a Penguins fan.  F them to.  I mean.  

I mean it’s possible

Only a moron would say they should move to Canada.  Moron or Penguins fan.  Which is one in the same.  

True. I wish they’d sell the team but if they did our luck they sell it to someone as bad or worse.
