apeman33 Posted November 9, 2007 Author Share Posted November 9, 2007 I can see it now: "Nice fielding....you WING NUT!""Wingnuts? More like numbnuts!"Yeah, there's going to be a lot of awesome trash talking based on this nickname. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 So it's a logo mashup of the Lansing Lugnuts and Lake Elsinore Storm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutyfree Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 I know they are insisting on rage, anger and intimidation in their represenatation of wingnuts, but, really, wouldn't it have been brilliant had they used a simple illustration of said nut as their logo instead?That on a T-shirt would be a huge seller, I swear.

apeman33 Posted November 10, 2007 Author Share Posted November 10, 2007 Oddly, I like this.I do like this version, which has just the top of the head. If you go to the website, you'll also see the "full face" logo. For some reason, with the "wings" of the nut where they are, I get this "PO'd dog" vibe. Could just be me. But a cap purchase is definitely in my future depending on how it looks (Partial head logo, yes; full head logo, maybe not). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian in Boston Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 I don't mind the name, though - creatively - it's always going to seem like a knock-off of the Lansing Lugnuts' identity.As for the logo, I love the fact that baseball stitches form the eyebrows. I'm a bit perplexed as to why the creature's face resembles that of a canine. That bothers me.The uniforms strike me as being rather nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCScout76 Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 Reminds me of the "Johnny Darko rabbit" (a movie) - kinda strange logo. I guess if we can have "lugnuts" we can have wingnuts.Can't say I like the logo - a pycho baseball with rabbit ears or it's nut on top of it's head. It just don't jive with me.  Kansas City Scouts (CHL) Orr Cup Champions 2010, 2019, 2021     St. Joseph Pony Express (ULL)  2023 Champions   Kansas City Cattle (CL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slickster Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 I thought of Donnie Darko when I saw it as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFB Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 The logos are nice, but they are almost an exact rip off of the Detroit Red Wings foam hat. They used to be really popular around the Joe (I don't know if they are as big now). The hat looked exactly like the logo, only the hat was red and said "I'm a Wing-Nut!" across the front. I couldn't find any pics, but someone has to remember those hats.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManCalledAmp Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 The W's not so bad, and the word mark looks cool, but the baseball-face-canine-rabbit thing Wangs Chung. That's nasty.My first thought when I saw ol' half-face up there was it looked like a psycho in what reminded me of a Micky Mouse ears hat. D'oh! Go Gators. Go Blue Raiders. Go Commodores. Go USC Trojans.Preds & Avs. Braves, Rays, & Dodgers. Titans, Colts, Broncos, Cardinals. Grizzlies. 14ers, Jam. Team Spirit + Laziness = Yay.

M59 Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Front number looks to be too low on the jersey, relative to the team name. Otherwise, I kind of like this jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTaylor44 Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Is it just me or does that front number on the jersey seem a little too low?Maybe its just the wordmark throwing me off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
