Anubis2051 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Our new stadium will have an Atlanta address,Wha-?They going to re-zone the land or something? And how will they square that with the new county that's ponying up $600 million for the new park?There's ways to get around that. In Jersey I know the Princeton address is well outside Princeton. Their post office isn't even in Princeton! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aawagner011 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Any updates to the rumors that the on field caps will shift to the Diamond Era style? Last I heard was what was posted on UW. By the way, whoever posted above that the Braves screaming Indian caps are hitting Lids is correct. I stopped at the one in Gwinnett Place Mall and they have a bunch. Picked up a 7 1/4. I have found the Diamond Era caps to fit my head better. For that reason I hope the on field caps switch over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discrim Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 In case anyone was wondering...regarding the new Braves stadium move (this is from homeofthebraves.com):Will the Braves be changing their name or logo when they move?No. The name on our jersey will still be Atlanta Braves and we have no plans to change our logo. Our new stadium will have an Atlanta address, and we will continue to be proud to represent the metro Atlanta area for the next 30 years and beyond.Eh? The Braves need a new stadium...why, exactly? 1996 aint new enough? Aint like Turner Field's made out of Lego pieces.

The Clarences Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Yep! The Pirates are getting a new logo! I personally like it! My fave Pirates logo was the "We Are Family" era team.In the MLB, the only team that needs to change are the Brewers & Mariners! The Brewers need to go back to their 1980's uniforms again. Would love to see Seattle go back to their 1970's/early 80's uniforms!That's the great thing about the MLB, NBA & NHL....most of the teams ar going back to their old uniforms, colors & logos! Love it!The NFL however, is going the opposite direction!What is up with the new Seattle Seahawks & Jacksonville Jaguars uniforms? Yuck! They both look like Arena Football League uniforms!www.theclarences.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mojo Maniac Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Uh oh, Phantom Dreamer is back again. But seriously. Not even 20 years in Turner Field, one of the most underrated ballparks in the bigs? I feel like the stadium-building trend is reverting to the old almost-suburban area/intersection of interstate highways method that was all the hype in the 50s and 60s. From San Berdoo to Kalamazoo.

Survival79 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Are the Pirates definitely getting a new primary logo?Has anyone seen it?If you have, would you mind posting your thoughts? We are wolves • Under the moon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold Pinstripes Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Are the Pirates definitely getting a new primary logo?Has anyone seen it?If you have, would you mind posting your thoughts?Yes they are, and my hunch is that it will be unveiled at the Fan Fest held on December 14-15. It's been a tightly guarded secret, but I'm hoping for a type of design I saw on a players custom made UnderArmour shirt in September. This design had a skull with a Pirate hat, and two pistols in the background. So often, we see swords in a Pirate or Buccaneer type logo across different sports, and I think it's a great look to go with pistols from the time period of real Pirates(not the Somali version). There has been some chatter about a reluctance to use a skull from the marketing fan friendly viewpoint, but that seems weak to me. I've seen youth football helmets with skulls for teams nicknamed the Buccaneers and Pirates, and no one seemed traumatized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a baseball fan, I tend to go with the cap logo as the primary look of a team. The Pirates will be changing the logo on the left sleeve, which they seem to do periodically, around every 10-20 years or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
