But it's not a really good looking logo on itself. Same thing with many classic logos around the league. Habs, Bruins, Rangers, etc etc... they are iconic now... but on their own and without context.. it's not that great. No…. I can’t speak for others, but I like the logo because it’s a great logo. It’s one of the best logos in sports. Edited July 18, 2022 by MadDog2020 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know if all the lines are even and sh!t, but you took the team name, and the state, and incorporated them into a great logo that has with stood the test of time, at least thus far. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajsgolf Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Outside of the devils logo of course the brewers have a pretty awesome logo. Always enjoyed a hidden meaning within a logo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that makes the black outlines also inconsistent and sloppy. This section the top part is good and sharp but that tail... the line is really sloppy... the curve is not smooth and elegant at all, very clunky. Just look at it lol It’s a VERY small percentage of fans that would ever notice these “flaws”. It’s an even smaller percentage that would choose to dock points off this logo due to such “flaws”. I can appreciate this sort of thing because I’ve always had an eye for irregularities too, but I’ll admit, I’ve never once stared at a Devils logo and thought “AAAAAAAAA BUT THOSE LINES!!!” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t even tell you how old I was before I realized the Brewers logo was what it was, it was significantly later than it should have been. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now THOSE lines were atrocious. The lines I miss the most are the waist stripes. Now those needs to come back cause I just feel like our jerseys became bland with the change. 1 minute ago, mfitz804 said: I can’t even tell you how old I was before I realized the Brewers logo was what it was, it was significantly later than it should have been. I didn't know until the brought it back, like I knew there was something else to it other than a mitt when i was a kid, but I never knew it was that smartly done. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 (edited) The mindblowing logo moment that I had was when the “H” embedded within the Whalers logo suddenly just popped out at me. And I’ve pointed it out to other people who weren’t aware of the H, and were similarly in “No way!” mode.

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Sadly, the Hartford greens were ditched for these…they’re OK, but those greens just felt so much more right: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
