Bruins Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Recently mildly triggered by the Lincoln Saltdogs headscratcher of a logo change, whose spiffy new dog enjoys maniacally staring into my soul, I got to wondering what some of the worst brand changes ever have been. And watching the Sox play the lowly Marlins I was reminded of this now infamous downgrade: What are some of your (least) favorites? But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

KillWIll Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Never understood why they decided to add so much grey to their identity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferdinand Cesarano Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 The downgrade that defines the phenomenon: → A crisp and brilliant look full of character was traded for an awkward and unsightly mess. Nothing was left undamaged, as the colours, the wordmark, the numbers, and the cap logo all got significantly worse. The tragic part is that this happened right after the team's high point, its first appearance on the national stage, an achievement which should have cemented the basic elements of the team's identity for all time. Their look has never recovered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhysicalGraffiti Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I am preparing for some heat, but first thing that comes to mind: From: To: Take a 90's team with a unique identity and strip it of everything unique and attempt to create an ugly marriage of Leafs and Red Wings.

SFGiants58 Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 1953-54, when the Athletics just... gave up their traditional design in favor of a script that had no ties to their "classic" identity. At least the 1955-present scripts have used an Old English "A" as the capital letter. Fitting for a team that got screwed over by Connie Mack's senility and family squabbles, as well as a bunch of AL dickery. Here's an article explaining how it went down.
