otherwilds Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 So apparently Nashville is getting some kind of new baseball team but gosh darn it I swear I've seen that logo some where beforeBaseball Outlaws ride into town this summerThe Nashville Sounds will have company on the local baseball scene this summer.The Nashville Outlaws were introduced Thursday as the newest member of the Prospect League, a summer wood bat league for players who have completed one year of college competition and have remaining eligibility.Founded by three former Sounds? executives, the Outlaws will play a 56-game schedule from June through August. The 28 home games will be played at Vanderbilt?s Hawkins Field.The Prospect League (formerly known as the Central Illinois Collegiate League) began play in 2009 with 11 teams and expanded this year to 15 teams with the addition of Nashville and three others. In December, Dekalb County (Ill.), Terre Haute and West Virginia (Beckley, W.V.) were added. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDixonDesign Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Wow, Great looking logo! It's simple, clever, and effective...good stuff! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rentz Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 The logo would be better if they simplified it a bit. The three shades of gold are unnecessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undead Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 It's very similar to the cap logo of the Quad City River Bandits of the Midwest League. Quad City's is more simplified and better.

Jigga Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 I know I've seen that logo, too. I think it was on istockphoto.com, but (of course) it wasn't there just now when I went to look for it. Maybe the team bought the exclusive rights to it and istock removed it? On January 16, 2013 at 3:49 PM, NJTank said: Btw this is old hat for Notre Dame.

Lee. Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 "HAY GUYZ, if we take the old Quad City logo and change FIVE THINGS, we can use it without being sued for copyright infringement!"It seems to be the old River Bandits logo, modified in such a way to not look very good.

Burmy Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 $20 says they were just started up to provide a "new" tenant for Greer Stadium if/when the Sounds get their new ballpark (in Nashville or elsewhere). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illwauk Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I'm guessing the Outlaws name is supposed to refer to the "outlaw" genre of country music. If so, that's pretty hilarious considering that it was created by country singers like Willie Nelson who moved out west to get away from the Nashville establishment.

otherwilds Posted February 23, 2010 Author Share Posted February 23, 2010 Had the chance to chat with the Nashville Outlaw folks thsi weekend and asked if they got any flak from the Quad City River Bandits anout the logo. The answer was along the lines of "Um, well...oh yeah...They said...We thought the N with the black hat looked better so we changed it up..."So the home hat will now have the above logo ona black cap.Nice dig there Neo at the Oiler/Titans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
