Not sure how much I like the juiced up mussel characters, but I actually like the name. Much better than Miracle. 1 Quote "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific." Lily Tomlin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizzaman7294 Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 To me, the worst part of these newer MiLB names is the two-worded nicknames. Just name them the Mussels, etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THRILLHO Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 These two objectives can’t coexist. Kaufman must not realize that Fort Myers is nothing like The Walt Disney Company (NYSE: DIS) 1. “The overall goal from the beginning with the overall tone was to be like Disney, but with edge,” Kaufman said. “Edgy Disney.” 2. “We really wanted a team that represented the local community, and had an attachment to the region, if you will,” Kaufmann said. These monsters are ruining MiLB branding 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodboy13 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 The Connecticut Tigers are now the Norwich Sea Unicorns. Their logo is a narwhal. So they could have easily been the Norwich Narwhals, which is good and sounds unique, but Brandiose gotta Brandiose. 10 Quote On 1/25/2013 at 1:53 PM, 'Atom said: For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head.

Definitely has the brandiose mouth. Not bad, but just feels very familiar. Most of MiLB's different little logos all look the same 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittSmith_95 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 You can 100% tell this one is Brandoise, but.... it's honestly one of the better logo packages they've done in the past bit. My issue is why not NARWHALS? Like.... there was no need to do "Sea Unicorns". Enough with the gimmicky names. Also, given the fact they're using two completely different scripts... I'm not sure which I like better for the identity, but they should really stick with one. That is all. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shumway Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 The name is stupid, but that's the best Brandiose identity in a long time. Those logos are fantastic. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discrim Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 There exist no-brainers. One such choice would have been Norwich Narwhals. Sea Unicorns is firmly in the territory of somebody thinking obscure always = awesome, when it can also call very flat, as it seems to here. The narwhal logos are pretty good, and I like the nods to the old Navigators. 4 Quote A strong mind gets high off success, a weak mind gets high off bull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_DietDrPepper_ Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 The brand is great! Narwhals would've been much better than Sea Unicorns though 3 Quote Follow the NFA, and My Baseball League here: https://ahsports.boardhost.com/index.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THRILLHO Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 This is one I was waiting on. There was a fan vote for it. Not sure if they used the results as a guide or used it to pick the winner. Regardless Narwhals would have been awesome and I would have bought some of their terrible merchandise just because there was finally a decent new MiLB brand. But no.. sea unicorns.

Narwhals is too generic (as if) for Brandiose, and they enjoy controversial names like Baby Cakes. Unicorns are trendy right now, so look for rainbows, glitter, and narwhals. Whoomp, there it is. 3 Quote On September 20, 2012 at 0:50 AM, 'CS85 said: It's like watching the hellish undead creakily shuffling their way out of the flames of a liposuction clinic dumpster fire.

They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.
