Looks old school to me .

Decal Master 12-06-2007 11:43 PM

The new one sort of looks like an amateur version of the old one.

WEIRDWOLF 12-07-2007 08:38 AM

Bad decision! What is wrong with a little tradition! I'm not so sure I like the direction the NFL is headed under the new commissioner. Moving HOME games out of the US...maybe even the Superbowl...these are bad choices! I don't care if they take all the preseason games out of country but don't take my HOME games and leave the logo alone! :mad:

TVsCHACHI 12-07-2007 09:52 AM

Soon anybody who isn't paying some bull cable company or the NFL for its bleep channel the little people won't have the option to watch the bleeping games.

I think MNF on ESPN is a bunch of bleep too.

bleep the NFL!

And here they are.
 
for comparison.

This is a bad design...a step backwards...they blew it. The would have done better just slapping the new football onto the old logo.

Whoever designed this paid no attention to the relationship of the shapes. The shape of the stars does not relate to the shape of the football. The letters are poorly done. They don't relate to the shape that they are in. The shape of the shield is rounder at the bottom. The old letters work better because their roundness relates to this shape. If they had just straightened the bottom lines of the shield to a "V" shape on the new logo it would have looked 100 times better.

The football has merit but the rest is wack! I know design classes will be tearing this one apart. If I taught, this would definately be one of my assignments. This is where the computer age has gotten us. The computer is just a tool it cannot replace design principles/technique. You have a bunch of kids these days who think they are designers, because they can work the heck out of a computer but they lack design principles/technique and they turn out crap like this.

They would have done better if they had had a design contest. They could have created a media buzz and gotten an excellet logo for the cost of their prize.

I agree MC!
 
The old design was a much more cohesive unit. You can see that some attempts were made to pull it all together in this one - but not carried to completion.

i have the "pleasure" of working with these types of "designers" everyday. i totally agree, learn to use a t-square and triangle correctly before learning the computer. the font really throws it off whack for me.

I too hate the thought of games being played outside the US of A. Its all about the dough for the owners and zero about the local loyal fans. Sadly, it has really always been that way. They're just getting more creative now.

This coming from a guy who thinks Super Bowls should be played at the AFC team's home one year then the NFC team's home the next.

I dont think its Goodell.

As far as the new logo, I know nothing about graphics and art, but I will say, that my initial reaction was positive, as I thought it looked very early 1960's. For me, that is a positive. I like it.

jeff, you've told me that your eyesight is poor anyway. if you could see clearly, you'd agree with me.:D rtfl$ lffng$

Silverhorse 228 12-07-2007 04:43 PM

Bad Idea...Mega Ditto to what everyone has posted!
 
This is a diaster!

I don't understand it and it only makes me more upset the more I think about it....if it is not broke DONT FIX IT! The NFL logo is tradition...it is the only one thing that has been consistent the entire history of the NFL...it is a work of art! Why in the Hell are they changing it...it makes no sense to me.

Besides if they wanted to do it right then they should have....

HAD WEIRDWOLF DO IT...HE IS THE BEST!

I need to go cry somewhere...:mad: :(

WEIRDWOLF 12-07-2007 06:34 PM

Dave nailed it with his analysis. I actually learned something just from reading your post.

DAVE SHOULD OF DESIGNED IT. HE IS THE BEST!

jeff 12-07-2007 11:46 PM

5!!! wow!

David C is genious!
 
Perfect analysis and I agree 100%. You nailed it/them, etc. The same holds true for this younger computer generation group getting their hands on NFL uniforms. They lack creativity and imagination. The unfortunate trend has just been "make everything black" and "let's darken everything up". Sad, sad, sad, and they have completely dislocated the human brain in the creative process! LOL!

I'm ok with change if it's an IMPROVEMENT. But change for the sake of change is a huge steamin' pile of bulls###!!!!

Great post David C!
ppls$

19Alworth71 12-09-2007 07:36 PM

Well said Glenn!
 
I completly agree.Those uniforms in black top and Black pants look awful!
Come to think of it ,all the teams look awful when they wear dark top and dark pants.Where's the contrast?
