random_ax Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 Anyone else think that a majority of the CFL logos could use a makeover. The T-Cats is okay but some of the other ones border on USFL. I like the CFL but the logos aren't that impressive. I can appreciate tradition but a little bit of NFL marketing input wouldn't hurt a few of the teams. Anyone agree or disagree?

Anyone agree or disagree?Outside of BC, the CFL's logos are fine, all though I wouldn't mind seeing Jason return for the Argos, and the classic Alouettes logo return to Montréal.All in all though, the CFL is doing pretty good logo-wise, with only one logo that drastically needs to be changed.

Anyone agree or disagree?Yes, I completely agree. Toronto and Montreal should be completely redone IMHO. Saskatchewan, B.C. and Edmonton really need to be updated at least.

DrBear Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 I know I'm going to sound like one of those people who don't know there's an M and B in the Brewers glove logo...but I swear until just now I didn't see the A and M in that Alouettes logo.

I've been a CFL fan since the local PBS outlet ran the games with ex-Packer Jerry Kramer and ex-Lion Alex Karras doing the games. The T-Cats are okay.

EX: Michigan Panthers in Carolina Panther or Detroit Lions colors would rock out.USFL Renegades logo not too inspiring. Maulers colors weak. Panthers colors weak. The rest pretty good. If I had to choose a favorite logo and uni's it would be Panthers with Gamblers and Bandits close 2nd's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bleujayone Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Someone (Phil/ SyPhi Creations) here a while back gave the BC Lions a little "tweak". Mostly made the black outline bolder and recolored the muzzle. The results were a decent change without a loss of previous identity.BC Lions IdentityLooks good to me. We all have our little faults.
