slapshot Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Nice and simple. But the font is closer to the Texans' uniforms than those of the Rockets. That would be like a Celtics All-Star logo done in the Red Sox font. Back-to-Back Fatal Forty Champion 2015 & 2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZapRowsdower8 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Why must any team from Houston or Dallas always remind us that they are also from Texas? Detriot didn't have an outline of Michigan in any of their All-Star logos this year, nor do the Pirates have PA in any logos for next years game. Just off the top of my head the Astros and Stars both have "Texas patches." Any others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewharrington Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 It's really only done when the state has a particularly distinctive shape. I've seen it done with Texas, California, Ohio, Florida, etc. Not for an All Star Game, particularly, but for logos in general.

Ez Street Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 The second logo makes it look like Houston is where the star is. Other than that it's ok. @DavidStreeter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProvidenceRI Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 TEXAS is a weird place. It's the only state that allows it's flag to be flown over the American flag.That's why they are gung-ho on having Texas or it's flag on the sports team jerseys: Dallas Stars, Rangers, Astros, etc.They feel they are TExans first, and Americans second.

IceCap Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 They feel they are TExans first, and Americans second. IIRC texas is the only state besides hawii that was an idependent state before joining the union.

lucky Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 It's really only done when the state has a particularly distinctive shape. I've seen it done with Texas, California, Ohio, Florida, etc. Not for an All Star Game, particularly, but for logos in general. Just wondering - what makes the shape of these states any more distinctive than Michigan or any other? Sorry, its the Geography major in me talking. Yeah do that. Do exactly THAT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shmee Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 That logo would be good if it didn't suck so much. The intersection between the numbers and electron paths (or I guess planetary rings) is rendered really really badly. The world's foremost practitioners of professional tag-team wrestling.

Just wondering - what makes the shape of these states any more distinctive than Michigan or any other? Sorry, its the Geography major in me talking. Well, I find Michigan to be of distinctive shape, as well as many other states; that list was not exhaustive at all. Michigan, though, like, say, Hawai'i, is awkward for use in a logo because it has more than one major element, i.e., the mainland and the upper peninsula.I find the shapes of, for example, Texas and Florida, more distinctive because generally, you can show their silhouettes to someone who is pretty geographically challenged and they will say, "Oh, thst's Texas!" or, "Hey, isn't that Florida?." You can't really show them the silhouette of Colorado, Wyoming, or Kansas and have them be able to identify it, at least in my experience.

WSU151 Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 The second logo makes it look like Houston is where the star is. Other than that it's ok. I got that feeling too. That logo would be great if it were in Dallas. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect Zero Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Guys, those are flag codes. You don't have to obay them, but it's a sign of respect toward the American Flag.As for Texans, most of feel that we are Texans first and Americans second. We take great pride in the men that helped us in our state's freedom, such as David Crocket, Danial Bowie, the Texans of the Alamo, the Angel of Goliad, Sam Houston, and so many more. We have such a great history, and Texan's still see themselves as a soverign state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
