coggs Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Saw the logo posted on the main site on here. Are they really just using the same as last year with just an "I" added to it to change the number? If so, that is weak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waltere Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 They are indeed, unfortunately. New NFL policy to 'standardise' the Super Bowl logos into a template. Infuriatingly they went with a boring, soulless template that doesn't even look that good. 1 hour ago, BringBackTheVet said: sorry sweetie, but I don't suck minor-league d CCSLC Post of the day September 3rd 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chazberg Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I have mixed feelings on this, because I always felt like having a totally different logo every year (usually with vivid colors that totally clashed with the teams involved) was not the best way to go. Every other sport has somewhat of a standardized look (except MLB, which uses a similar logo for a few years consecutively), and I don't totally hate the new SB template. The silver/chrome looks good on everyone, and it features the iconic trophy prominently, something the old logos completely failed to do.I think the best marriage would be a template like the current one, but with some flourishes of the venue it's being played in (i.e. purple/gold confetti for NO, a palm tree for Miami, cactus for AZ etc.) similar to some of the Bowl game logos. charles-noerenberg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murf Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I am positive it is NOT an embroidered patch but rather a vinyl patch in the closeup photos I have seen of the Packers jerseys.I also collect patches and have piles for trade and sale and I would bet the farm I am correct.Murf Denny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saintsfan Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I know it's not fashionable but I like the new patches. I wouldn't mind a localised logo on the field so much, but I always thought the old style logos looked cheesy and cheap on the jerseys. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also did kind of like the "cheesy" localized logos on the uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCDuck Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 I remember the games by the logos. The numbers are just kinda generic so the logos are what differentiate, say, XXXI from XLI.Now these generic logos just make everything bleed together. It's so... ugh.

I've always liked how the NBA Finals patch is just a stylized O'Brien trophy. That's what I was hoping the NFL would do when they went to these standardized logos.

TheOldRoman Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I think the patches looked terrible, but much worse was the SB logos on the field. It looked it was washed out from a game that happened two weeks earlier. as it was faint and you could see the yardlines through it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would look so much cleaner and not so busy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
