Gothamite Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Those latter two logos are secondary logos, not primaries. I'm sure Cleveland can work up a new secondary logo. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsox Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 It would look fantastic.I liked the white and gray caps we saw in the 1990s.I had a white crowned Red Sox hat with blue pinstripes and a blue bill when I was like 5 or 6. It killed me when I lost it. I loved that hat. Edit: IIRC it looked pretty much like this, except it was a kids snapback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Lankford Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 But Chief Wahoo is their logo, you canĀ“t just replace it with a letter.Ninety percent of the league wears a letter (or two) on their hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasonFromMiami Posted March 15, 2015 Author Share Posted March 15, 2015 But Chief Wahoo is their logo, you canĀ“t just replace it with a letter. Ninety percent of the league wears a letter (or two) on their hat. You donĀ“t say ? But they also have a primary or other logo, as i already described in my first post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quillz Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 I like the Dodgers' blue cap with the white brim. Not sure if it's an official BP cap or not, and I've seen some variations with silver, but either way, it doesn't bother me.I also think the Blue Jays would look okay with a white brim as an alternative to the white-paneled cap (which they really should bring back full-time).

Dynasty Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Tampa Bay. Powder blue bills would help to separate them from all of the other teams that use dark blue as their hat color.I think they should be using that "Columbia" blue altogether. It would certainly be one less navy blue cap in the league, and it would look better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine the balance of light to dark blue that UNC has in baseball for the rays....it just might work and it would be original:The Rays even worn light blue socks in Sunday's game to honor Grant Balfour's father who passed away a week ago and was involved with the establishment of the Sudney Blue Sox.

TheOldRoman Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 The Rays don't even need to go that far. Just make the brim light blue on their cap, wear it home and road with a matching batting helmet, change the letters on the blue at to light blue and put a light blue outline on the home and road jerseys. Oh, and put "Tampa Bay" on the roads. That takes a horribly bland jersey set and makes it really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are called the Indians, so obviously either primary or secondary logo must be a Indian, or what ? CanĀ“t be a Tomahawk, so what is left, a tee-pee or maybe a pipe, surely that will offend some people. What would you suggest ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiddySicks Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 The ONLY cap that doesn't use some type of lettermark on their cap is the Blue Jays. Indians use the C on the road, and even the Orioles use the O's logo on the bird's cap. On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: Sheās still half convinced āChris Creamerā is a porn site.)

Then again, teams like the Brewers, Twins, Cubs, Giants, A's, Rangers, Phillies and Dodgers manage to have primary logos that are neither just the cap logo nor feature a picture of the mascot. So if you're suggesting Wahoo has to be kept because they can't possibly come up with a new secondary logo, then I would chalk it up to a failure of imagination.
