Diablo de Tejas Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 I don't mind the art, but why green in the Rangers logo. I think it would look better if they used the burgandy in place of the green. Discuss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicfurth Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Gadzooks. They went way too far with the southwestern theme, completely abandoning the Rangers scheme. This fan is disappointed greatly. Bleh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diablo de Tejas Posted January 6, 2005 Author Share Posted January 6, 2005 All of the MLB teams' logos will be done in those colors for the 2005 Spring Training...I'm assuming all teams that have spring training in Arizona. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruColor Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 No, there are separate designs for Florida and Arizona, but both using the same color palette.I'm getting examples ready, and will post shortly... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmorss9 Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Seems like there have been grapefruit and cactus league logos for a while now, but this is the first time I remember them not using the team colours. The D-Backs looks decent, actually, IMO. "Hats for bats. Keep bats warm. Gracias" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruColor Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 I've been checking my files...they've been doing this kind of thing (re-colored team logos) since at least the 2002 Spring Training... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackjack76 Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 I've actually collected visors with the different Cardinals' Spring Training colors since the really, really teal version in 1999.Love Jupiter, Florida this time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaolinaJoe Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 I'm guessing we won't hear any A's fans complaining about the colors. "It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of thepress. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom ofspeech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given usthe freedom to demonstrate. And it is the soldier who salutes theflag, serves beneath the flag, whose coffin is draped by the flag, andwho allows the protester to burn the flag."Marine Chaplain Dennis Edward O' Brien Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannymits Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Spring Training is a great vacation. I visit the Tampa, FL area each March and it's just a short drive from the Yankees (Tampa), Phillies (Clearwater), Blue Jays (Dunedin), Devil Rays (St. Petersburg), Pirates (Bradenton), and Reds (Sarasota). Plus there's some of the best beaches in the United States on Florida's gulf coast, while average temperatures are in the high 70s, low 80s (F). As for the recolored logos, i'm pretty sure there's been a yearly kitschy scheme that every team follows, judging by some of the merchandise I've picked up over the last few Springs.

pcgd Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 I personally like the look. I would have liked to see different icons for each logo, specific to the area of florida/arizona. Example: those near cape canaveral (sp?) have the space shuttle launch. or just different icons instead of all skiing chick. Maybe an old retired shirtless dude getting a tan!

jamesjduncan Posted January 7, 2005 Share Posted January 7, 2005 I have never noticed this. Guess cause I am in Philly I don't see/notice this. Obviously for teams that feature green in their color palettes, this is cool. As for every once else.....it's looks like a billboard from a Tennesee Williams play.
