quantum Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 The one good thing about this change is that we can stop talking about the Sabres for awhile. Kind of like smashing your hand to forget about your migraine headache. "One of my concerns is shysters show up and take advantage of people's good will and generosity".

DEAD!

Brian in Boston Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 I thought it might have been a decomposed Terrence or PhillipNo, it's Jack Skellington's cousin. You know... the one who loved dressing up as Adam Ant.Hmmmm. Come to think of it, if Jack Skellington's cousin loved dressing up like Adam Ant, he probably did have something in common with Terence and Phillip.

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.

Fred T. Jane Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 At least they didn't use this...Well, compared to Davy Jones, that isn't that bad. Cheesy? yeah, but would you mess with an admiral swinging an anchor around? At least he isn't trying to hit a puck with his decomposed leg...

-kj Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 You know it's bad when my rec-league team, also named the Admirals, is going to be better-dressed this coming season than this supposed pro team.Wow, that's just a heaping pile of steaming, festering dung. Which, given the "backstory," seems somehow appropriate.Stunningly bad. Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

chuck kaiton Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 As the "official story behind the logo" that I posted earlier explains, this little guy...I just realized why he has a peg-leg: he apparently sawed of his leg to use as a stick.

33hooligan Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 To me it's like the Mighty Ducks logo when it first came out. Me being a duck fan had expected something other than a cartoonish skull and bones duck themed logo with untraditional colors and I hated it. After a while it kinda grew on you and you loved it or hated it.I remember reading someplace that it sold 45% of the NHL merchandise for the next couple of years. I think they are going for a wider audiance with this logo ie; kids and family's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brendan Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 The only thing worse than the logo is the story behind the logo. He sawed of his leg and used it as a stick WHAT THE HELL. I wonder what he used as a puck . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illinirox1 Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 This is possibly the biggest downgrade I have ever seen. This makes the Buffaslug look great. Why would a team go with 90's colors, a gray away jersey, a logo un-related to the team's name, and a mascot who is using his sawed-off decomposed leg as a hockey stick? I can't imagine the YES MEN said yes to this, or even that someone could have thought of it in the first place.

I guarantee you that this logo won't grow on this Admirals fan, and judging by the reception this logo has received on OnMilwaukee.com, it won't be growing on anybody else, either.

And is the logo Fred T. Jane posted five* posts above supposed to be the lad at the time he was "lost at sea?" If it is, then he sure had a growth spurt between the '79 logo and when he died. I think we can assume that Jack will be hosting a saturday-morning cartoon show to be coming soon in the Milwaukee area.EDIT:*Make that eleven. And I have to say, this is the first logo I have ever laughed at. Get Ron Santo in the Hall of Fame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkrdevil Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 Wow, when I first saw this on the AHL site I thought it was just a special Halloween logo. Then I read it is there new primary, then I saw they are using grey aways. This is below bush league at least bush league has some creative funny logo and names. I give it, The max pukes allowed by the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
