ManillaToad 1,176 Posted December 9, 2020 I'm obviously being facetious, but then I picture a free runner on second decked out in a corporate clown suit and think, what if? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_J_ 2,045 Posted December 14, 2020 If we're allowing the talk, can we just open up the thread LMU posted? Â Also, Cleveland should just let adverts run rampant and taking the name Cleveland Melt after the resturants. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BBTV 20,095 Posted December 14, 2020 In non-Cleveland news...  Wasn't 2021 supposed to be the first year of new Nike templates and materials? Or did Covid kill that too? I thought it was communicated that there wasn't any time for 2020 so they'd just slap the swoosh on the Majestic stock, but that 2021 would bring in all sorts of "innovations" with the fabrics and cuts. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SportsLogos.Net News 586 Posted December 14, 2020 Detroit Tigers Considering Logo Change? December 14, 2020 - 17:27 PMIt appears the Detroit Tigers are considering changing (or adding to) their team logos in the not-too-distant future. Recently, the Tigers published a survey, sent out to a select group of fans, which asked them for their thoughts on several different Detroit Tigers logos — some of these were straight-up Read More... 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WSU151 9,725 Posted December 14, 2020 The roundel with the updated font just looks weird to me. I think the thinner head, combined with a very angular, serifed font kinda clash with the circle, and the charm's not there as in the older one. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because I have always loved the classic. I think a new word mark and a modernized uniform set from the 80s and this would be a instant number 1 hit in my opinion. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ridleylash 4,012 Posted December 14, 2020 The two new logos both look really nice; solid takes on classic logos. Hopefully they're the ones chosen. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Digby 6,522 Posted December 15, 2020 The new logos are well-rendered but they feel almost like those logos that are made for a minor-league affiliate that keeps the parent's name but wants something slightly different, brand-wise. Just bring back the throwback roundel in all its weird retro glory. The tiger cousin of the old Bruins' spazzy bear. Rabies really did a number on the secondary animal logos of a certain era. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wonder if C19 delayed everything. Think about it, MLB (as did all other sports) paused in mid-March, before the March 31st deadline for possible changes. And also, by the May 31st for submission of said changes, they were still discussing if/when baseball would even come back. So it’s very likely that any changes that were planned for 2021 (Twins updated script?) and the new Nike templates were pushed back. Because I’m sure Nike would rather just go ahead and put any new designs on any new template from the unveiling. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
