In with the new...

I think it sucks personally. They should stay with the old logo.

From Ballpark Digest:

OK, so George Mitchell won't be launching a steroids probe into the bulking up of Clinton LumberKings (Low Class A; Midwest League) mascot Louie. There's a simple explanation for the new look: the LumberKings' front office embarked on an extreme makeover for Louie for the 2008 season. Thanks to New Era’s design team, Louie has toned up, changed his facial hair and is even equipped with some new gear. Gone is the handlebar mustache, silver crown and green wood plank that epitomized the mascot for 14 seasons. Nowadays, Louie is sporting a new slick goatee, a shiny golden crown, and swings a more conventional wood baseball bat. "With all the changes that have taken place in the last few seasons, we wanted to give Louie a new and fresher look," said Ted Tornow, general manager of the LumberKings.

You manage to balance agitation with just enough salient points to keep things interesting. Kind of a low-rent DG_Now.

Great. I guess this means I'll have to go out and get a new hat.

Besides now having an outdated hat, I like the old one better. The new one doesn't really look like a lumberjack. He looks more like he's out trying to pick up women, with the goatee and the arched eyebrow.

Oh, dear. He looks like third-rate shock-jock/wannabe political commentator Mancow Muller.

(Which makes all of the sexual predator comments spot-on)

For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head. Thats what it looks like to me. Also the flair around the tip of the beak is just flair that fleur de lis have sometimes source I am from NOLA.

I am a lumberjack & I am OK

I sleep all night & I work all day

I cut down trees, I eat my lunch

I go to the lavatory

On Wednesdays I go shopping

And have buttered scones for tea

I am a lumberjack & I am OK

I sleep all night & I work all day

I cut down trees, I skip & jump

I like to press wild flowers

I put on women´s clothing

And hang around in bars

I am a lumberjack & I am OK

I sleep all night & I work all day

I cut down trees, I wear high heels

Suspenders & a bra

I wish I would been a girlie

Just like my dear Mama
