Puckguy14 Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 I like that Orioles logo. I don't understand the 10th Anniversary logos for the ballparks. That's just way too early to celebrate a new ballpark. The first year yes, but not until 20 at least.BTW, the Phillies are starting all over again?

the_cynic Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 What's up with the Shea Stadium one? The didn't incorporate a Mets logo or a Shea Stadium logo. That's pretty whacked.I like that Orioles logo. I don't understand the 10th Anniversary logos for the ballparks. That's just way too early to celebrate a new ballpark. The first year yes, but not until 20 at least.I totally agree. That's the problem in the world of sports today. They have to have a logo for everything so in cases like this, things tend to get a little premature. But if things have to be premature I like the Ball Park in Arlington one. It's pretty cool how they vectorized a drawing of the stadium in the logo.

Joshawaggie Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 On one hand, its nice that new logos come out to discuss and critique, on the other, it is kinda rediculous to have so many anniverary patches. @josh_j12 CFA- Fargo Bobcats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 What's up with the Shea Stadium one? The didn't incorporate a Mets logo or a Shea Stadium logo. That's pretty whacked. When the Mets first opened Shea in 1964 the World Fair was going on a across the street and the had a patch that was orange and blue like taht with teh World Fair logo. The baseball figures on it are identical to the neon baseball figures taht have decorated the stadium on the ouyside since 1987. They are ugly on the stadium and even uglier on a ptach that 40th Anniversary logo is horrendous For the record Shea has a neon hitter, pitcher, runner and fielder and they all are pretty horrendous it does not make the stadium look very good.I do like the Orioles log ,a dthe Phillies nt mentioning the stadium name is silly.Also 10th Anniversay logos for a team are bad now we have them for a stadium too seech whats next yearly anniversarty patches.Charollette Bobcats 2nd Anniversary lol. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CC97 Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 Where were ya when I asked for these 3 months ago? ;)Anywho, yeah 10th anniversary stadium patches are pretty lame... i can proudly say the jays have played at the skydome for 16 seasons and had never worn a skydome patch. --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cianfrocco Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 Ah, but the Jays did wear a 10th anniversary patch of the team in 1986. Not quite as bad as a stadium patch, and I guess a lot of teams have done the 10 year thing (Rockies, Marlins). The Mariners wore a 20th anniversary patch in 1997, which I always thought was an odd year for a patch.And yes, that Mets patch is horrible. Square/rectangle pacthes just don't work well on a sleeve. They always take up the whole arm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 The Mets seem to like the square rectangle look as I said when teh stadium first openbed the had one like this they also wore it in 1965 btw. Then in 1994 they had a rectangular patch honoring the 1968 Mets 25th Anniversary. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mac Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 The indians one looks like the all star logo from 1997 and the shea stadium one reminds me of those things on the outside of the stadium. you know what i'm talking about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zer0dotcom Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 The Phillies and Jacobs field are pretty cool, they'd look good on the uniforms. That Shea is totally lacking in design...no logos, no real form, it looks like a mural you'd expect to see at the basepark on the corridor wall.The Arlingotn 10th looks good, but is that going to be a patch? or is it going to be a logo for programs and such? it's shape doesn't make it look much like a patch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avenger Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 I'm pretty unimpressed with Arlington logo. I generally like iconic design more than something that illustrative, but personal tastes aside, the Arlington one looks too photorealisitc to be used as a flexible logo.The Shea logo isn't very good IMO either, but I suppose if there is some historical value to it, I won't dig on it too much.Everything else is pretty well executed IMO.

Phil Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 Wow... those logos look like a "walk through time for me"...The Jacobs Field one feels very 1988..The Orioles' one feels very 1992...The Shea Stadium one ( ) feels very 1996...The Phillies' one feels like it's actually from this millenium!

Moser316 Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 As a postscript to the Mets Shea Stadium 40th Anniversary patch, here's an image of the World's Fair flag that the 1964 Mets patch was based off of: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Clemente Posted February 26, 2004 Share Posted February 26, 2004 I'd like to see an anniversay patch that doesn't have the logo but instead has the teams name and anniversary in some regular font like Arial.For example the patch could look lke this:CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS 80TH ANNIVERSARYAnd that's all there'd be to it.--Roger "Time?" Clemente. Follow me on Twitter if you care: @Animal_Clans.My opinion may or may not be the same as yours. The choice is up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow that is so true UW and I am a Mets fan Shea is a toliet pure and simple. The corridors are dank, the escalators are always broken, the concessionaires are slo and stupid, and their is always a foot of water in the bathroom. There is also a sour stench throughout much of the stadium, and its best to hold your breath if you do go in to a bathroom. The Mets really need and deserve a new stadium ASAP. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
