CC97 Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Interesting. It invokes the location but not the host team.Since there's only one Los Angeles team, it's not that difficult to figure out which team's hosting the Draft.Does the team host the draft or does the city?Does it matter? Like pulling teeth.So the answer to my question of whether this particular league event is team or city hosted is "does it matter?"Well true, I suppose in the grand scheme of things it doesn't matter but it also doesn't answer my question... thanks anyways --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceCap Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Judging from past draft logos, I would say it's the team that hosts the event, not just the city.

If the team hosts it, then the logo should have incorporated some team-related imagery. Otherwise, it's fine.@CC - I really don't know the answer to your question, but if I had to bet, I'd bet on the team hosting it.

I was asking an equally important question in response to yours. I don't feel that the issue can completely come down to a black and white absolute of "Does the team host the draft or does the city?" I think in this case its more complicated, and I specifically cited why. Yes, the city hosts the event...but would the city host the event if the there wasn't a team there? In LA's case maybe, but in most other cases no. Therefore, I believe the city and team work symbiotically. I mean look at it this way...who owned the old Cleveland Browns? The owner or the city? Well, when the team jumped ship to Baltimore we clearly saw the outrage that followed and the answer to that question, which was no where near as absolute as evident by the fact that the "city" kept the name and colors of the team. This is why I made the comment that I made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
