ChicoStater Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 The Chico team in the GBL unveiled their nickname and logos today. I snagged a few photos.Primary mark (couldn't really get the banner, but I got this of the podium, so ignore the wood part):Game hatsPreliminary drawing of a mascot, "Rascal": Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve-O Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 I really like this actually. Slick design and even slicker putting it into that C. Definitely great stuff, wonder who designed it...? The wordmark looks like every other "Outlaws" wordmark, but that is to be expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrodsep Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 That "Outlaw" looks very familiar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicoStater Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 When I first saw it, the cowboy reminded me of the Ottawa Renegades, and the Outlaw reminded me of the Nationals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stampman Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 It does have a Renegades resemblance--also Check this one out too... Comic Sans walks into a bar, and the bartender says, "Sorry, we don't serve your type here." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davey Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 The font "Outlaw" looks very familiar to the Washington National font. As for the hats, are they allowed to take the "c" for the cincinnati reds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shmee Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 Looks like a Flynnagain to me. If so congrats man, you're even more popular than ever lately.

ChicoStater Posted December 16, 2004 Author Share Posted December 16, 2004 I take it with the c that they are affiliated with the reds No, actually, the Outlaws aren't a Reds affiliate. The Golden League is an unaffiliated league.The Cincinatti Reds-style C is actually used by a number of school teams in the Chico area, primarily the Chico State baseball team, which is one of the top Division II programs in the nation. http://www.asbookstore.com/more_details/mo...618158-9000-003Chico High School uses a similar C.The league's other teams will be in Fullerton, Long Beach, San Diego, Yuma, Surprise, Mesa, and Tijuana.

So how does that work. Do they need to get permission or pay the Reds to use that "C". Or is the "C" really just a C from an actual font any anyone can use it?That leads me to another question: If a professional team actually has original rights to the "C", which team is it - the Bears or the Reds; and how did one get the right to copy it from the other?LT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 cool thing that a team is in Surprise, maybe I could take my nephew or my dad to a game there. Suprise is a suburb of Phoenix about 10 miles away from Phoenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackjack76 Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 There's really is not much you can do with "outlaws" that hasn't been done before (Calgary, Las Vegas, Ottawa Renegades, Tampa Bay Bandits, etc.).The hat reminds me of the old Mudville Nine cap, sorta.

The Chicago Cardinals (now Arizona) used 2 of them as their logo. The Cubs have used it. So has Cleveland. Just one of those old fashion logos back when there weren't the same copyright laws in effect and people didn't care about the logos as much, so teams copied one another.

Discrim Posted December 16, 2004 Share Posted December 16, 2004 That leads me to another question: If a professional team actually has original rights to the "C", which team is it - the Bears or the Reds; and how did one get the right to copy it from the other?LT all i know is the Bears and Reds' Cs are different. the Bears C is noticeably asymmetrical-look closely.The Reds' C is more symmetrical-again, look closely and disregard the shadowwait, what did this have to do with anything?
