Survival79 Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 Again, any team based in Washington, D.C., should have the colors of red, white and blue. As to what shade of blue, well, whatever shade it is on the American flag. That's just a no-brainer.This is what is typically used for the American flag:PMS 193C - Old Glory RedPMS 281C - Old Glory Blue "If things have gone wrong, I'm talking to myself, and you've got a wet towel wrapped around your head."

Jaybird Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 This is an abandoned logo used by the 1991 expansion campaign that eventually led to the Rockies and Marlins. If I were to color this, the stripes would be red, the background to Washington would be navy blue, the ribbon that bears Nationals would be parchment with black lettering. The Nationals should use this logo, however, the Washington Capitals use an eagle for their logo, but this should be the Nats' logo. For the colors, check out the post following this one. Atlanta Braves, please bring back the Indian Head logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaybird Posted November 20, 2004 Share Posted November 20, 2004 No please, not another blue-red team please!!!! There are like 20 other colors, why do they keep the same red-blue scheme????Anaheim = red-blueAtlanta = navy-redBoston = navy-redCleveland = navy-redCubs = blue-redMinnesota = navy-redTexas = navy-redSt Louis = home-red, away-navyPhiladelphia = red-blueOthers with navy as main color:NYYNYMSeattleSan DiegoDetroitAnd a "new team" comes and decides to use Navy-Red scheme.I would rather see a Burgundy scheme like the Redskins for instance. This is my post following the one for the post that had me saying that the Nationals should use the logo for the proposed expansion team that was passed over for Colorado and Florida. Also, I didn't know that the DC United Soccer team used an eagle also along with the Capitals.For the team colors, they should use these colors from the other Washington teams:Burgundy-from the Washington RedskinsBlue-from the Washington WizardsBronze-from the Washington CapitalsBlack-from the DC United Soccer teamWhat do you think? Atlanta Braves, please bring back the Indian Head logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waffles Posted November 21, 2004 Author Share Posted November 21, 2004 NEWS FLASHThe Washington Post has a new article describing the logo and uniforms...http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/artic...?nav=rss_sportsThe primary logo for the soon-to-be-named Washington Nationals will feature "Washington" in a ribbon that rests atop of a rectangle that contains the word "Nationals." Below is a baseball ringed with stars. There are several versions of the logo, according to a preview of the team marks that were viewed by The Post. All the marks -- variations of the logos that will appear on the team's uniforms, caps and other merchandise -- will be done in the team colors of red, white and blue.Major League Baseball and District officials have scheduled a news conference for noon on Monday at Union Station to unveil the logos.Some do not include the baseball, and simply have "Washington Nationals." The team logo on the cap will be a curving "W," on a blue background and on a red background, presumably for home and away games.Home team logos, which will likely grace the front of the team uniform, include "Nationals" in blue with red trim, and "Nationals" in plain red. Some blue lettering will have gold trim.The away logos will include "Washington" in plain red and "Washington" in blue with red trim. Some logos will feature the words "DC" on red and on blue backgrounds, respectively.Other variations include gold trim surrounding a blue "Nationals" or blue "Washington," and some logos will be simply black and white.

I think it's just Redskins burgundy plus the entire Capitals color scheme. You're right, come to think of it. I thought that the Capitals used blue, black, and bronze, and the Wizards used blue, black, and gold. Thanks for the info. Atlanta Braves, please bring back the Indian Head logo.

Brian in Boston Posted November 21, 2004 Share Posted November 21, 2004 Simple... traditional... classic, with just a bit of a "retro" feel. All in all, a solid effort. I'm interested in seeing how this styling is applied to caps and uniforms.As for a designer, I'd say that the logo has Studio Simon written all over it.
