leedsunited Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Much rather see the Brownie Elf than that stupid dog.Besides, the "dawgpound" was part of Municipal Stadium. The new digs are way too plush to ever be another "dawgpound". That era is dead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burning River Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I hear ya!! Especially when they've been terrible at home since 1999! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkshadow1031 Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Yes, the Brownie the Elf logo is quite prevalent on merchandise (and in my closet). I remember when it was brought the old logo out of the mothballs a couple of years ago they said that they wanted to rework and update it in the future. Obviously it hasn?t happened yet. Does this ring a bell to anyone else? 2002-2006 ALUMNI 2007-2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iowahoo Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Just to point out where the Dawg came from. Hanford Dixon coined the Browns defense as the Dawg Defense as they would bark on the field to pump each other up. This carried over to the fans in the bleachers who then named the section the Dawg pound. So yes that specific Dawg logo was created for the Dawg Pound, but the nickname has its roots on the field.

BlueSky Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 The B logo always struck me as a cheap ripoff off the Green Bay G.Well, if you wanted to argue cheap ripoffs...Actually, I see these more as paying homage to Green Bay, not ripping it off.

tajmccall Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 The elf is the only acceptable answer, and its not really acceptable.Yes, their identity package is horrendous. But, its the Cleveland Browns. It fits. EDIT: hahaha, they just named their kicker a team captain. Store 1 Store 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turns out GB had the logo first, then let Georgia & Grambling use it.http://www.packers.com/history/fast_facts/helmet_history/Since the Georgia "G"- though different in design and color- was similar to Green Bay's "G", Coach Dooley thought it best to clear the use of Georgia's new emblem with the NFL team. Athletic Director Joel Eaves called for permission which was granted. However, since its inception in 1961, the Green Bay "G" has been redesigned several times and now looks like Georgia's original 1964 "G." Georgia is proud that the Packers apparently liked the special nuances of the Bulldogs' forward-looking "G."

hormone Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 I wish they would just use this.Put it on the 50 yard line, the jersey, and pants. But NEVER on the helmet!!!I'm going to say yes to all of this except put it on the helmet along with a white mask!! And while you're at it, tell the Steelers to put their logo on the other side too!! But that's just me. I think being a professional means to look the very best. No logo looks pop warner to me. And the same goes for some very traditionaly college teams. I piss on tradition in this case!! The dawg should never be used, as many people mentioned, because it's just a fan nickname and really has nothing to do with the team.I'll leave now. It's just my .02 and none of the above would ever happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
