Should that be the case, I can totally see a return of the LV Outlaws identity. Not so sure about the Rage and that red hulk logo tho. I believe Orlando would just take over the Vipers logos. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semi pro squads are notorious for stealing whatever logo fits closest to their nicknames. In the 1990's there was a semi-pro team named the Cleveland Lions. From foot to toe they copied the Detroit Lions uniforms. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm disappointed San Diego wasn't involved, maybe they couldn't get a deal with San Diego State done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently it was offensive to the mentally ill. As someone who is, I’m offended that people think a headshot of a cartoon lunatic would send me into a frothing rage.

Had there been a Season 2 of the original XFL, Memphis would've abandoned the Maniax identity for something less fxcked up. Wouldn't have been the first insensitive nickname the XFL had bailed on.

Yeah, but I’d say the Birmingham Blast being seen as potentially being a reference to a racist terrorist attack in the city it happened should’ve been brought up ASAP. I know that we’ve had teams like the Atlanta Flames and the New York Jets but that kinda went too far. As far as the Maniax? If they didn’t get rid of the Hitmen or Enforcers mascot, I don’t think they’d get rid of that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yeah, the Maniax logo is absolutely one of the worst logos I have seen in my life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
