rmackman Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Is it just me or does this hat say the St. Louis Cardinals are the 2004 American League Champs? I bet the idiot who embroidered that hat doesn't have a job anymore. The worst part is it's still advertised on www.neweracap.com "Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be eaten. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle. When the sun comes up, you'd better be running." - Unknown | Check out my articles on jerseys at Bacon Sports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC97 Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 It says NL, notice circle? notice bg colour? looks like an A but clearly a lowercase N --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapshot Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 It says NL. It's just the font.What appears to be the middle bar of the A is formed by the outline of the circle and the inner space of the N.

VitaminD Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 If you're still unsure, check out the "N" in "CHAMPIONS". "Start spreading the news... They're leavin' today... Won't get to be a part of it... In old New York..."In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17.

-kj Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 Wow, TCR, evivid, you guys are on a crusade to be jerks across the entire board, eh?I can see what he was talking about. It's a different colour, but that's not entirely obvious upon quick, first glance. Might have been better to have filled that in with the navy, or to have moved the "NL" text to avoid the ambiguity.

Stampman Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 If you're still unsure, check out the "N" in "CHAMPIONS". Well the "A" also... 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...
evividsolutions Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 In CHAMPIONS, the A doesnt have the center piece isolated with a border. Its a fluid A where all pieces are connected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAD! Posted April 18, 2005 Share Posted April 18, 2005 This is clearly wrong, the year is supposed to be 1944 and the logo should say Browns I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See Red Posted April 19, 2005 Share Posted April 19, 2005 I actually read it as AL as well. It was only upon some others saying that it was an NL that I looked at it again, and noticed what was throwing me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet the idiot who embroidered that hat doesn't have a job anymore. The worst part is it's still advertised on www.neweracap.com if you lokk at it the "circle isnt white, its blu, and the line crossing through the "n" is white, making it an A... this could really go either way Tumblr.

The worst part is it's still advertised on www.neweracap.com if you lokk at it the "circle isnt white, its blu, and the line crossing through the "n" is white, making it an A... this could really go either way The negative space generated by the blue of the circle and the blue outline tricks our eye into thinking the kakaki color is actually white.No screw up, but somoene should have noticed that it looked akward and either moved the NL up or down.I hear people all the time when you mention something like that go: "Well, its an N" (as this case is) "so I'll leave it." Yes, I know its a "N" but it looks akward. Change it! Happens all the time at work. Its a lesson in design, just cause something IS right doesn't mean it looks right.
