kroywen Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 "Golden State Warriors" sounds like some obscure Division III team. It's a truly awful name for a team (worse than the New England Patriots - at least New England is a place name). "San Francisco Warriors" is far more professional, and has some history behind it - I really hope the Warriors don't use this recent run of success to keep themselves saddled with an awful college-esque name.

YessSir32 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 From the Pistons intro video last night. Doubt anything comes from it, but a simplistic version would make an amazing secondary. Anyone agree? Detroit Falcons (NABL) | Detroit Gears (UFL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hokupguy Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 not sure if your talking about ball logo and or the skull involved. But I think the name in the ball is the why there going , doubt the league would ok any logo with a skull. But it is cool logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ark Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 It makes me angry that the Hornets are giving their fans black t-shirts rather than purple or teal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackBolt3 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 ^^^^Purple and Teal for Game 4: http://www.nba.com/hornets/playoff-giveaway-schedule I have actually kinda grown to like the black alts. There's kinda this neon vibe with the teal and white, and that kinda makes it unique in that aspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to respectfully disagree. I think it's a cool sounding, unique name. It rolls off the toungue. I have no issues with regional or state names used in place of a city. Perhaps I'd feel differently if I resided in a major league town. "Of course, that's just my opinion. I could be wrong." Dennis Miller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NFL let the Buccaneers use a skull in their logo, and I'm sure there are college teams that use skulls in their logos too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Francisco, in my opinion, should be able to work as the body of water they're next to is called the "San Francisco Bay". Even if people in Oakland think it's associated with the city, it can also be associated with the Bay Area as a whole. Plus they're a professional basketball team, not a University. After 40+ years, I think most folks are used to "Golden State", and I think they might alienate Oakland fans more if they were to change the name when they move across the bay.

Those blue kings teams were unequivocally terrible and about as forgettable as any sports team ever. And that primary logo they used is absolute garbage. Every single thing about the update to purple, black, and silver was an upgrade. Warriors did a survey/study a few years back, and the overwhelming majority of those asked viewed replacing the Golden State moniker with San Francisco very negatively. It is very popular with fans. The team would definitely be alienating fans in the east bay, as well as South Bay, north bay and all other surrounding communities. Doesn't seem like it would be a big deal from an outsider's view, but we take it pretty personally. Well, some of us do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJAnfield Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Unfortunately I don't. there are articles that touched on the Warriors reaching out to the fanbase, but I don't see anything on results. I heard the information I posted on the radio with someone connected to the team, and one of their reporters. I wish I could find a link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tjbean216 Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Does anybody have any news on the upcoming jazz logo? Seeing the kings logo, and the pistons logo (psych, just kidding, not primary logo) has got me curious what the jazz are going to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
