yankeesmarc923 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 I'm not really digging either the font used for the 715 or the font used to write Barry Bonds. I like the bridge idea though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJTALBOT Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 In the logo, is the white figure the pre-steroid Barry and the orange the roided up Barry or vice-versa? Everyone loves a roundel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallWonk Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 That's just awful. A real mess.The bridge towers are all wrong. The suspension cables don't (and can't, given the terrible perspective) line up. And they're perfectly straight, not curved. This is what the bridge looked like at the end of X-Men 3. That just doesn't make sense: Bonds is not a mutant, he's a guy who achieved superpowers by injecting himself with strange substances. So he's clearly from the DC, not the Marvel, universe.Look at how the ball's white "motion streak" wraps around on the left -- it's not a motion streak at all. That ball is just trailing a wet towel behind itself. And notice how the outline on the "motion streak" get smaller trailing away from the ball, as if receding in the distance, but the "motion streak" itself does not. Each element of this logo just doesn't quite work. Overall, it screams 1983 to me. On the other hand, the fact that this logo completely lacks class makes it perfect for the occasion. Here's hoping we are soon getting a look at the Albert Pujols 81 logo ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CS85 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 In the logo, is the white figure the pre-steroid Barry and the orange the roided up Barry or vice-versa? I think it's sad the guy has a logo anyway.

FiddySicks Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Uhhhh. For Christ Sakes get over it already. Overall, the logo is pretty weak. It could be improved, but for the matter at hand i dont think it really matters that much. On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.)

Blackjack76 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 He needed the Bonds logo wants he broke away from the Players Association. Buy any pack of baseball cards (and if Bonds agrees to be have a card in that collection), you will see MLB's logo, MLBPA's logo and Bonds' logo.His ego is roughly the same size as his head (cap size 9 5/8 methinks).

Fred T. Jane Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 Since when does Bonds actually run after a homerun, as per the lil icon on the bottom of that patch? Barry Bonds was the first NL Member of the 40/40 (40HR/40SB in a season) club and the only member of the 500/500 club. Back in the day he was quite the baserunner. [Croatia National Team Manager Slavan] Bilic then went on to explain how Croatia's success can partially be put down to his progressive man-management techniques. "Sometimes I lie in the bed with my players. I go to the room of Vedran Corluka and Luka Modric when I see they have a problem and I lie in bed with them and we talk for 10 minutes." Maybe Capello could try getting through to his players this way too? Although how far he'd get with Joe Cole jumping up and down on the mattress and Rooney demanding to be read his favourite page from The Very Hungry Caterpillar is open to question. --The Guardian's Fiver, 08 September 2008 Attention: In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from your stay at the CCSLC, the reader is advised that the above post may contain large amounts of sarcasm, dry humour, or statements which should not be taken in any true sort of seriousness.

Jigga Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 You know what would really be interesting? If people actually talk about the actual reason the thread was created in the first place...you know...the logo.We know everyone hates Barry. But let's talk about the logo, mmkay?With that said, it's atrocious. About the only thing salvageable is the little logo within the logo, but that's not new. The font choices were terrible. I wish they could have either used the team name or city fonts from the jerseys. It also would have been cool to have done something with a ball going over the wall or a ball going into McCovey cove or something. I don't know what could be done with the current logo except for scrapped. Based on the circumstances (moving to 2nd overall, not first) and all of the suspicion surrounding the legitimacy of Barry's achievements, I don't think there should be a logo in the first place.

But this is the most famous 2nd Place of all time. Besides, how many non-baseball diehards will talk about 755 before 714?And I completely agree, this logo needs a complete overhaul. I'd rather see the scoreboard at AT&T Park, or the RF Wall in front of McCovey Cove before the Golden Gate Bridge.
