Brian in Boston Posted May 15, 2006 Share Posted May 15, 2006 Rumor out of Youngstown is that the Mahoning Valley Thunder's logo features a depiction of a Thor-like god of thunder. He's wielding a hammer with the letters MVT emblazoned upon it. Colors are supposedly Blue, Silver/Grey and White.Any confirmation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galwegian Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 It's finally up on the af2 website (www.af2.com). The picture's not great quality, but from what I can see, the logo looks pretty terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peoria was decently run in the af2, especially after Orlando Predators Entertainment unloaded the team. In the end it was the league's faulty business plan that prompted the lateral league move.

I would be interested to know what your knowledge level is? My best friend from high school runs an af2 team and he has shown me ever document regarding the operation of the team and the league at that time and currently.

paynomind Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Wow, that thunder logo is terrible. I've seen work in contests on this board that received zero votes that was twice as good as that.Ugh.

Galwegian Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Apparently, the team has quietly redesigned their logo. Over the last few weeks or so, they've been phasing out the original on the website and replacing it with this new one:www.mahoningvalleythunder.comNot great, but much, much better.

Sodboy13 Posted January 9, 2007 Share Posted January 9, 2007 Well, the new logo looks like a pencil sketch done by a D&D freak in study hall. But still, upgarde. The logo they have as wallpaper on the site is much better, though.And that said, I like the jersey (as displayed by the mascot.) Reminds me of the original Carolina Panthers design.
