tajmccall Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 1 minute ago, Gothamite said: Having an interesting conversation on Twitter about this with Matthew Wolff, who designed LAFC's logo (among others). People are always unnecessarily harsh on anything new, but it really is a nice looking mark. The Twitter replies are awful, but im sure many are upset (and justifiably so) SD fans.

They were the LA Rams for a lot longer than they were the St. Louis Rams. Why would they leave the identity there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCap Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 The move is a mistake but the logo is sharp. I'm hoping they make the LA/bolt gold though.

And I fully expect that's where the Raiders will play 2017 if their move is approved in March. The NFL won't want them to lame duck for two years in Oakland.

I don't see where San Diego losing the Chargers to Los Angeles is relevant to Jacksonville being a capable football market ? Sorry we are not a " traditional " NFL town but we are one none the less. One with an upgraded stadium, solid core support locally & international just starved for a winner. So the teams lack of success shouldn't be an indictment on the fan-base or market.

CreamSoda Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Looks like a hybrid of a Skateboard brand and a pop-punk band. I actually like how it looks, but not sure its the best logo for the Chargers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bringing the "L" down breaks up the motion of the bolt. If anything, it should be raised to keep the jagged lines moving in the right direction. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!

I like the royal blue, but I feel like, in the context of the logo, the L is slanted too far to go with the A, almost as if instead of LA or LA, it says LA.
