gosioux76 Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 If anyone's got pictures show them here:Why is it that politicos have such difficulty looking good in baseball caps? It's not like they have a lot of hair to mess up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LMU Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 Weren't the uniforms supposed to be unvailed today? If so, anyone have pictures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthMan Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 the unis were not to come out today. this is an excellent logo if there was something on top. the dc secondary is also good "We have nothing to fear except fear itself." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goalieboy82 Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 i like it. does anyone know when the jerseys will come out? so long and thanks for all the fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkrdevil Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 The logo is great. I never liked the cursive W, so with this I like it even lees. But I am the only one that feels like Nationals may only be a temp. name and once the stadium deal is complete and there is a new owner that the team will change it's name to the Senators.

The Rangers own the name Senators for the time being, I don't see them giving it up (although I'm fairly sure the new Nationals cap is the same one the Rangers own the rights to) --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net  "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian in Boston Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 While payno's edit certainly looks awesome, I'd probably refrain from adding the Capitol dome to the logo. Adding the Capitol dome would remind me too much of the Capitals' secondary.I wonder what it would look like to add a composite "skyline" - consisting of silhouette's of the Washington Monument, Capitol dome and White House - above the "WASHINGTON" banner?That said, I really don't think that the logo needs anything more. It's simple and classic with just a touch of "retro" style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yh Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 Just a little something I noticed in the logo:Nine stars, I guess for the nine players on a baseball team. Pretty cool. Does this mean they'll have to switch out the ninth star for a designated star when they play in an American League park? Well, they DO play in an American League park (at least it was one until 1972). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 yeah that one dude behind the guy at the podium just looks wierd with a hat on, like he hasnt worn one before. looks like he picked up a hat that was 3 sizes too small Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I am the only one that feels like Nationals may only be a temp. name and once the stadium deal is complete and there is a new owner that the team will change it's name to the Senators. They'll become the Grays in two years. I think that's why the Mayor dealt with it and was alright with the whole situation, rather than complaining about the new name they gave them.

Gary Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 I still think they will be the Nationals, but I have a feeling they will go with the interlocking DC as their hats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBGKon Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 i've been watching this thread all day and compiling my thoughts on what I think of the logo.1. I agree that the logo is missing something, whether or not it be the Capitol building, White House, Washington mounment, or anything else in DC.2. I'm glad that they decided to use the old style sctipt "W" for the caps, whether it was their choice or MLB's choice.3. Good use of the accent color gold in the logos.overall, i give the logo design a A-, could have been slightly better but the idea is there, they did what they could with a team called the Nationals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
epper Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 i am very impressed with this logo, which adds to a run of nice logos that MLB has churned out in the past few years (New Jays, Padres, Angels), whereas the NBA (Bobcats) and NFL (bengals) seem to be quite lost. Its a very nice mix of old and new school. I really don't get why they'd use the script W though. Sure its tradition, but that DC logo that just screams to be used on the hats. As for the unis, im hoping they keep pinstripes on the home unis, with maybe a sleeveless grey road uni, and a Navy alternate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiss Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 I imagine the caps will change down the road.. maybe even to the DC with the gold.All due respect to Todd, I was curious how natural an addition the capitol building would be to the logo, so i 'shopped it...Yes, very natural indeed.I would also guess that the top banner will change to the shape of the new stadium when it is built. 10 POINTS. I like 101% it!!!--------------------Ah, there will be a secondary cap with the interlocking DC...Source: http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news;_ylc=X3oD...ov=ap&type=lgns It's great to be young and a Giant! - Larry Doyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
griffelh Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 It DEFINITELY looks better with the Capitol added. I too don't see the cursive W cap logo fitting with this design. It calls for a W in the style of lettering that the word NATIONALS is in on the logo. Retro with new age just doesn't seem to go together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JQK Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 Now, with the Jerseys, would you go with the wordmark? Or would you go with a RedSox-ish or Script font? Stay Tuned Sports Podcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMU Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 I love the cursive W though. It's classic, plus I just happened to buy a Senators throwback hat a few months ago, and now that hat has become the Nat's road hat, so I don't have to rush out and buy one.

Swiss Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 Now, with the Jerseys, would you go with the wordmark? Or would you go with a RedSox-ish or Script font? I think that this same lettering of the logo would be the wordmark of the jersey.Hope that the jerseys are pinstriped... maybe with navy pinstripes because the Phillies are too near and wear red pinstripes. The home cap is all navy blue so it gives me the clue about the color of the pinstripes.--------------------BTW: Here the first ever item on sale as a Washington Nationals product in eBay!!!http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...5141876639&rd=1 It's great to be young and a Giant! - Larry Doyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
