I hate how they call professional sports champs "World Champs." It bugs me so much. They're not playing against the rest of the world, so how do we know for sure that they are "World Champions"?These recolorizations are great, btw.

NFL uses "Super Bowl Champions", NHL uses "Stanley Cup Champions", and MLB uses this: "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

They're not playing against the rest of the world, so how do we know for sure that they are "World Champions"?These recolorizations are great, btw.Yes, because the great american football teams from Antarctica and Lethoso and Uzbekistan are being disrespected by having the champions of the NFL being called World Champions.If only they had their shot.Seriously, in the world of baseball, the American and National Leagues are the top tier of the sport, and the champion of Major League Baseball should be considered the World Champions. Same with football.Now, with the NHL and the NBA, it becomes more tricky because it has been shown that clubs from around the world can compete with the club teams from the NHL and NBA, but NHL champions are usually referenced as "Stanley Cup Champions", not "World Champions".

TruColor Posted January 15, 2009 Author Share Posted January 15, 2009 Didn't realize no one else was allowed post them.If you read the first post of this thread, you'll that the point of all of this is for the color-correcting aspect of displaying these logos. The point isn't just to post commemorative logos; I'm providing new, more accurate versions of them for Chris to use for his site.However, the one you posted will make a fine example of the differences once my "treatment" is completed. I'll work on that one next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted January 15, 2009 Share Posted January 15, 2009 It shouldn't. They're the best in the world at what they do. "World Series Champions" makes little sense. They're the champions of the World Series? No, they're the best team in the world. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(other than Yomiuri and Hanshin, that's pretty much the case; heck, team revenue usually goes to the parent company's business. That $51m Seibu got for Daisuke Matsuzaka? The only thing Seibu did for the team was renovate the scoreboard. Oh, and sign a washed-up Kaz Ishii. But hey, they still won the championship in 2008!)Back to the "World Champions" thing, that's why I love teams like the Spurs. They never, ever used the term "World Champions" to describe themselves. The Lakers and Celtics, on the other hand...EDIT: BTW, there IS a world championship in (American) football now; 2007 was the first year that the US competed in it, and naturally, the US won the tournament. (However, in the championship game, Japan took them to overtime.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
