officeglenn Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 Ghostriders? No! Those guys stole our name.We even have a good story behind it too, which I won't get into right now. Jerks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buzzcut Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 Oh great, I may just have to make a DOWN WITH THE AIFL rant. Well first off, it's a skeleton riding a Harley, the color scheme (Black, White and AQUA?) is too predictable, it's stolen from some other team and it don't depict football.Oh gugh, will some one at the AFL do something with these renegade leagues? Anyone else with me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac the Knife Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 The league hasn't played a game yet, and already one team's gone under.Real stability there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac the Knife Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 Hey that raises a question - with Raleigh's team playing an all-road schedule, and the Ghostriders playing an all-road schedule, where are these teams going to play in their 3 head-to-head meetings?Maybe there's an ABA venue available somewhere...

Discrim Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 I know of a nearby vacant lot these traveling circuses can use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCScout76 Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 Damd these "wanna be" leagues - I can't say the Ghostriders logo is any better than the sharks, which was a ripoff of a t-shirt company logo! Pathetic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 The league hasn't played a game yet, and already one team's gone under.Real stability there. Better than the stability issues involved with a team folding mid season in a first year league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
officeglenn Posted April 15, 2005 Share Posted April 15, 2005 I know of a nearby vacant lot these traveling circuses can use Yeah, but then it's not "arena" football ... unless the circus leaves their tents up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian in Boston Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Hmmm... a spectral, skull-headed biker specifically riding a motorcycle, huh? This will last about as long as it takes for someone to make a phone-call to the offices of Marvel Comics.Do the phrases "copyright infringement" and "cease and desist" mean anything to the AIFL?

buzzcut Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Do the phrases "copyright infringement" and "cease and desist" mean anything to the AIFL? Evidently not, but will that stop them ripping off another team in another sport? NO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Posted April 18, 2005 Author Share Posted April 18, 2005 i'd like to know evividsolutions thoughts on this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evividsolutions Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Blah I was hoping to avoid this conversation.I made this logo whichever morning the team was announced so it could be sent out to the printers that afternoon and could be made for the helmets. This whole team folding decision was made last minute and I found out 11:30pm on wednesday I beleive.A name like ghost riders.. well I guess I could have went with the ghost on a horse.. but having 2 logos with guys riding horses wasnt a good idea in my mind.The logo isn't done yet this is only a temp. As I said above something was needed very quickly. Im working on their site right now.http://www.aiflghostriders.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
