Big Yellow Flag Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Has anybody compiled all these new temporary baseball names and/or identities? Seems like some of them could make for a good inspiration folder (and a very valid new section under baseball on the mothership?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been checking lids, but that’s just another store fanatics has ruined over the past year or two. Going direct to the teams individual store might be the best option, and it helps a local business rather than a corporate entitiy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Yes, but they're also about to move into a new stadium. Which makes this pretty standard timing. Quote The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynasty Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 All they really need to do is update their logo/uniforms. The name has a good enough connection to the area and going with something else just feels like change for change sakes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewG70 Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 Are they changing their name because their fans are called Snapperheads? (I’ll see myself out the door now.) Quote The (unofficial) NHL Uniform DatabaseThe WHA Uniform Database Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 All they need to do is drop the gold from their color scheme and go navy/double green/yellow, then get some decent uniforms for once. I don't want to see the delightful Snappers get Brandiosed into being the StateLine RockRollers or some such trash. 1 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.

OnWis97 Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 I'm not going to lose any sleep over this since it's a minor league team I seldom notice but I think it's a solid name and teams just changing names* is odd to me. I'd rather they have a presence that lasts. Hopefully the Mud Hens don't move into a new stadium soon. *Barring a Washington-NFL type reason Quote Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

Brian in Boston Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 In my opinion, they'd be best served by keeping the name and securing the services - and talent - of Dan Simon, Todd Radom, or Joe Bosack for a new logo package. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimball Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 As a former Beloit resident there's no need for a name change, Snappers works better than any other nickname. What has already been echoed a logo change is needed. Maybe emphasize the A's color way more with yellow and green?

MilSox Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 It'd be a shame to see a great name like Snappers go. Just an update to the team's logo package is all they need. Also, how odd is it that Beloit still has a team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BBTV Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Quote The Worcester Red Sox—WooSox to friends—unveiled the on-field threads they’ll wear in their debut season next year, including nine jerseys and seven caps. The nine jerseys include three whites, three blues, two reds, and one gray, featuring the city’s name in a traditional Red Sox font, the team name in their own WooSox script, and the team’s heart-shaped W. The caps, in various permutations of red and navy, feature the Red Sox font W, the heart-shaped WooSox W, and, because the iconic yellow smiley face was born in Worcester, one with the team’s bat-swinging smiley face logo. (See the explanation for that here.) Emphasis mine. This is absurd. It's fine for MiLB teams to have fun with their uniforms and have a few alts and special one-offs, but 9 jerseys and 7 caps is ridiculous by any measure. The uniforms don't even go together, with some with their Woo Sox brush-ish script, and some in the Tuscon-ish font. Just a joke. 3 Quote "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."
