I joked around with @raysox after this first came out that Fox is totally going to come out with some ungodly scorebug for the Clash, face a huge swarm of backlash, and reverse course to something else for the 500 like they've already done like 3 times before when trying a new graphics package out 2 Quote Twitter: @RyanMcD29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrueYankee26 Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 2022 for FOX Sports I predict will have new graphics for Nascar and possibly NFL (2022 season will also have FOX broadcasting Super Bowl LVII in February 2023) having more white and colorful graphics like the baseball and college basketball graphics. I still think NBC will unveil a Sky Sports-esque graphics package for Super Bowl LVI. 1 Quote trueyankee26.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parallaxish Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Hi, Fox. Can you please not take up 20% of the screen with scorebug and ticker stuff? k thanks (this is an edit btw, this is what it might look like if the bug were barely 1/3 the size it is right now) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fbjim Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 For some reason college basketball (and basketball generally) has been bucking a trend toward smaller graphics and going more and more gigantic. I don't get it, I actually like the NBA on NBC-era "quick flash of the score when someone makes a basket" thing, but even this is much better than what we have now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get it... I assumed this trend is the networks' attempt to make their identifying graphics "easier to read" in mobile video applications, whether it's for live streaming or social media consumption. This is the same reason why the current NFL bug on FOX (and Marquee's initial scorebug for Cubs games) is centered horizontally -- so people can still see it and get proper context when a highlight is cropped square on Instagram. 3 Quote Twitter • Facebook • Instagram • LinkedIn • Tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynasty Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Looking at the scorebug on CBS for the NE-BUF Wild Card game, the logos look smaller than usual. I feel like I've seen this happen with FOX's scorebug a few times as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanMcD29 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Kind of interesting last night that ESPN made this graphic of the longest title droughts and in the process used the style of logos they use for each of the 4 sports 10 Quote Twitter: @RyanMcD29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSUViking Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 The super shiny, almost 3D NFL logos needs to go. The whole ESPN graphics department, from logos to the scorebugs to the stupid cartoon graphics.....sucks. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's weird that they have those nice looking 3D players for each team but when they go to the cartoons, they remind me of the South Korean videos talking about celebrity couple fights on YouTube. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~Bear Posted January 27, 2022 Share Posted January 27, 2022 Kind of a random thought: With TNF Football moving exclusively to Amazon for 2022, I imagine we’ll be getting another exclusive graphics for TNF for the first time in a long time, since they had the NFL Network branding. I have no idea what to expect so it’ll be interesting. Also hoping if NBC does change their NFL graphics, it’s not too extreme. Their current scorebug isn’t as good as the last two but they don’t need a full-on overhaul. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyersfan Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 ESPN's NFL package is rough right now. They like to use helmets in the imagery, almost all having the wrong colored facemask. The flags with metallic on them are cool until they disintegrate in the wind, then it's not great, which they definitely do during the draft. I also don't understand the obsession with altering the logos, why do they have to add the bubbling effect? And why do the NBA ones have to be 3D? It just doesn't add anything but make the logos look goofy. There's ways to apply them to add more than just the base logo, but it doesn't have to go all ridiculous. FOX needs to stop with the cartoons. It was fun the first time, but ever since then they just look bad. Why can't they just use a picture of the person? Newer viewers don't know what these people look like, especially in NASCAR and Football where they wear helmets. As for NASCAR, yikes is coming. I don't understand the need for it to be all patriotic in stars and stripes. Simple is nice, and NASCAR has actually done a real good job in their branding, why can't they adopt similar design elements to the broadcast? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
