demondg1 Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Ugh the more is see the Jets logo, the more I hate it. It has not grown on me at all.I think I've actually grown to dislike it. I really liked it when it was unveiled. Now, it's like "meh". But we're stuck with it and it will undoubtedly influence future sports logo design.

powersurge Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Anyone remember when the Oilers had their logo at the blue line?I think I do, but even if they didn't I still love the idea...unlike the NBA where some teams take liberties with adventurous court designs (some good, some f-ing terrible) It seems that most if not all hockey teams take more predictable and safe approaches to their designs. I wish hockey teams would do a little bit more with their ice designs. I'm not saying to screw with the lines or make it impossible to see the puck of anything, but try something different from time to time; make it a little more interesting.

njmeadowlanders Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Well the Rangers tried mixing it up last year and it failed miserably:Of course we won't know what they'll be going with for this season until mid-October or so since they can't host a preseason game and open in Europe followed by a game at the Nassau Mausoleum and a Western Canada trip before finally taking to a Phase-I completed MSG ice at the end of October vs. the Leafs.Also, the seats will all be black when the dust settles (literally), it's not 1991 anymore...http://www.msgtransformation.com/EarthCam.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rule has screwed up many center ice designs, and now the Jets are another casualty. Even with having to keep within the center circle I think most teams could put down something that looks good, but to have this 18" wide stripe down the middle that you cant use ruins it for most of them.

More teams just need to go the double logo route.This....Is infinitely more preferable to this....This, however, beats both of them out PotD 26/2/12 1/7/15 2020 BASS Spin the Wheel, Make the Deal Regular Season Champion 2021 BASS NFL Pick'em Regular Season Champion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarsofthumper Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Looks like the Kings are keeping the crown at center ice as opposed to using the LA logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korkie Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 ^ I like the Kings simplified look with the black and silver and the crown looks better, glad to see they are still featuring it. Re: the Jets, I was so happy that they brought back the name, but the second I saw the logo I just instantly stopped caring. Its just so "meh" and clip arty. There's just nothing attractive or interesting about it at all. If the Jet itself had a bit more detail or sense of motion, it would be so much better. I agree with BBTV's analysis above.

TimEOBrien Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 "Canada is a federal state that is governed as a parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy with Queen Elizabeth II as its head of state."

IceCap Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Did that take you all of 2 minuets to find out in Wikipedia? We're taught in history class up here that the American Revolution created two countries, not one. The US, obviously, but also Canada, because the American victory in your rebellion caused Tories (those loyal to the British crown) to head to Canada. Hence Canada, as we recognize it today, began to take shape in the wake of the American Rebellion as a counterbalance to the United States. Whereas the US was the experimental, radical democracy Canada was forged for those who remained loyal to the Crown. Now you guys tried to extend your little rebellion in Canada a few times. During the revolution you invaded Quebec...and were repulsed. In the War of 1812 you attempted to invade both Upper Canada (Ontario) and Lower Canada (Quebec)...and were repulsed. During the rebellions of 1838 you guys gave underhanded support to the rebels fighting the Crown governments...and those failed. Honestly, looking back, is it any real surprise we supported the Confederacy? My larger point is this. We're who we are because of our history, and your country has tried to drag us into your Union more then once, and you've failed each and every time. It's the year 2011 now. We can be friends and accept each other's differences, or you can be a snarky about it. If you choose the latter that's fine, but we're still here Oh, also, you and vmd9 should save each other some time and collaborate on your material.

BBTV Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Jesus, is it really necessary to pick on Canada here... or, well, anywhere? Just post your gripes about Canada somewhere on your site, and if someone wants to read them, they can click on one of your 50 links.
