Cujo Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 The first things I did was ditch that hideous "B/Raven Head" logo and went with someone a little more simple, but I did keep the secondary and just made it into the the primary. The next thing I did was trade in black and yellow for gold. I kinda think it's not the "Ravens" without black, but the whole concept looks pretty clean without it.C&C as always. Thanks.

swooshmd Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 i like the purple and gold for the home and away, but i can't get into the gold alternate jersey. i've never been a big fan of gold alternates. that's just my thing though. i think the helmet could use a logo instead of the "B". maybe the full bird logo that is currently in use by the ravens.and the more i look at it, the more i like the striping on the jerseys and pants as well, but i like the number font that they use now. i always enjoy seeing concepts for the ravens. you don't see them that often. it always nice to see the home team represented.

Jezus_Ghoti Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 In my opinion you changed too much about the uniforms. I would like to see them keep the same number font and still have black helmets. Also, I wouldn't mind some black trim in the uniforms. Then at least you would have some continuity.

logodawg Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Honestly, IMO this looks more like a concept for the Vikings than the Ravens. The Ravens need some black, they're the Ravens, a black bird. I once had a car but I crashed it. I once had a guitar but I smashed it. I once, wait where am I going with this?

VitaminD Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Meh.By getting rid of all the black, you've lost a lot of connection to the team name and its very origin. Baltimore... home of Edgar Allan Poe... classic horror story writer... wrote "The Raven"... dark, mysterious, creepy... black bird, pruplish sheen to the feathers. And so on.By getting rid of the Ravens' number font, you've lost a portion of their identity.All in all, it's just OK, and it doesn't feel right for the Baltimore Ravens. "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.

Hat Boy Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 I like the stripes and the black/white piping. That checkerboard pattern is like the one on the Maryland state flag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NyghtOwl Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 I like the helmet and I like the B...but maybe put black trim on the B and the home numbers, and change the gold alternate to a black alt?NyghtOwl How about those...Mets?Packers?Rangers?Knicks?Titans?Owner of the New York Night Owls 1999 champions in the All World Football League.

I pretty much agree with him. The only thing I would add is that the numbers are not only a part of the team's identity, but one of my favorite things about their current unis.Also, I agree with you about rethinking the helmet logo, but I would either go with the full bird with wings spread (see earlier post) or the the front view Raven head that you put with the wordmark.

quantum Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 With the name Ravens, a logo of a bird should be used. I really don't care for the collegiate approach of just using a letter. I also agree that this needs to have black as a component of the design.I actually like what the Ravens have now. The only change I would make is to eliminate the letter B from the helmet logo.

bucskick20 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 It looks good, but when I think of the Ravens I think of show off, this is to basic for a show off smash mouth team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted January 14, 2006 Author Share Posted January 14, 2006 finally someone has done something to get rid of that dang raven's head on helmet. Thank you. I hope there are more of us that agree on the Ravens helmet. The current helmet logo is hideous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southernyankee Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 As a Raven's fan - I'm not feeling these. I like the Back/Purple combo and also think that the numeral font is a part of their identity. While I also cold do without the present helmet logo - I prefer it over a plain "B". Personally I'd like to see the front view of the Raven head. I'd also like to see them lose would I call the "police badge" shield on their sleeves and drop the "tv" numbers from the shoulders to the sleeves. Add some black pants to wear on occasion with the whites on the road and you've got a winner. Oh - and bring back the striped socks and switch to BLACK shoes.
