VandyDelphia Mike Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Back when Penn State had less pressing publicity issues, these logos were created, but never caught on. The chipmunk survived. NCAA Baseball Champions | 2014, 2019 facebook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDiamond Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I believe the Patriots had a new logo unveiled at one of their games during halftime (kind of a crude new Pat Patriot/Flying Elvis hybrid) that got booed mercifully and never saw the light of day.

OnWis97 Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I think Nebraska was going to put an outlined and/or serifed "N" on its helmet to replace the plain "N" they have now but the reaction of the fan base killed it. Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

I think those were early prototype Flying Elvises (Elvii?). I seem to remember what RDiamond was talking about, but I can't remember what the logo looked like. http://i.imgur.com/4ahMZxD.png koizim said: And...and ya know what we gotta do?

illwauk Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Marquette sees your 'logo' revolt and raises you a 'renaming your team the Marquette Gold' revolt.http://www.nytimes.com/2005/05/18/sports/ncaabasketball/18marquette.html?pagewanted=allAt least a good logo came out of that whole debacle:But yeah, MU could've saved themselves a lot of future headaches if they'd have just reverted to Hilltoppers or Golden Avalanche upon dropping the Warriors tag.

nmsuaggie Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 New Mexico State had a revolt when our original Pistol Pete was modernized in 2000's. This was our original Pistol PeteThis was the modernized version made in 2005. The big complaint was he was missing his pistols and fans called him Lasso Larry instead. After a few years of complaining, Pistol Pete got his guns back.I personally prefer the black hat and guns look. Go Aggies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kw11333 Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Portland's not the first Northwest MLS club to have an identity controversy:Fans chose a name for the team in an online poll held between March 27 and March 31, 2008. The initial list of possibilities ? Seattle FC, Seattle Republic and Seattle Alliance ? deliberately did not include Seattle Sounders in order to provide a "fresh start." Despite the names having been selected through fan research and internal committees, the omission of the traditional Sounders name embittered many in the Seattle community. The Vancouver Whitecaps were not going to be the teams name to start either.Same story, franchise wanted a fresh start, public did not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varsity Blue Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Didn't the Houston Dynamo MLS team change last minute also from like the Houston 1836. Forgot what the reason was. Because it was a terrible name. I believe the idea of the name was to reflect the year of the founding of Houston. Of course, that same year saw both the battle of the Alamo and the defeat of Mexico. Hispanic groups, who are a big chuck of the Dynamo fanbase thought the name courted Mexico bashing. I can see possible sore feelings but "bashing" seems like an overreaction. There was some kneejerk anti-anti-Houston 1836 reaction but not too vigorous because, really, it wasn't that swell of a name.BTW- the biggest supporter group for Dynamo is the Texian Army. Texian being the term for white colonist in Texas who would later win the Texas Revolution. Too bad they didn't get to use the ace unused 1836 logo.I don't recall that "Hispanic groups" raised a ruckus over the name, I believe a single county politician -- Sylvia Garcia -- led the effort on her own. Some groups may have fallen in line behind her, but it wasn't an uprising. Sylvia was tossed out of office in the last election (heh, heh, heh, heh).
