ShinyHubCaps Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 This may sound dumb, but I can't figure out the randomness of these circles. Is it "2006"- and, if so, where is the "2"? Or is it just "06," and, if so, what is the purpose of the top and bottom two circles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBPerry Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 dude, I'm gonna be nice so you don't get killed. so, the blue circle is the number 0, while the green circle is the number 6, there is no 2 & there is no 2nd 0. The circle on top, is just to add on to the smiling faces, while the circle at bottom is the world cup logo. <embed src="http://www.clocklink.com/clocks/5005-Blue.swf?TimeZone=CST&TimeFormat=hhmmssTT" width="180" height="60" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash">joshuabperry@sbcglobal.netMy Webpage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.R. Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 Also my assumption is that the three smiling faces represent Germany's three World Cup victories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred T. Jane Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 The smiley face represent the emotions fans go through during the tournament Lies.Where is the look of consternation, rage, outright sadness, or the look of getting your manhood stepped on? [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.

Actually, to be fair I wasn't sure of this either, because I also heard about 2006 being in there somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discrim Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I said it when this logo was unveiled, and I still think it...so hilarious a logo this is, that it laughs at itself. very hard.

Alphabet Man Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 The smiley faces reflect the motto of the World Cup 2006 "a time to make friends"THen there is the 06 because this is year 2006The bottom circle with the trophy is a slightly modified Korea-Japan logo from 2002 that will be used in all future World Cup logos, like the Olympic rings are on every logo, FIFA want it to be seen as 'yes that logo is the World cup' like you can do with the Olympic rings twitter.com/thebrainofMatt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powersurge Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 I think the logo is representitive of Brazil getting the crap kicked out of it by France and having Germany getting a gift towards winning this whole thing. Just my guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plamenj Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 The logo is just baaad...It represents nothing German. Also, the ShinyHubCaps question IS quite reasonable, if the faces are 0s, why is the 3rd face not a 0, and how can you tell which face is not a 0? If my opinion is not enough, here is one of one of the greatest German designers: DW WorldHere is the official explanation: FIFA World CupAnd here is a joke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
