BBTV Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 The Pirates did change their logo. It just wasn't anything earth shattering "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

Silent Wind of Doom Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Yeah, it broke, but was so underwhelming I think everyone forgot it. Here's the new Pittsburgh Pirates logo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCap Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Their primary logo used to be this...They've since announced that they're going to just use the standalone P as their primary.

tigerslionspistonshabs Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Oh, gotcha. The P is a strong logo, but the Pirate has been on their primary for almost 80 years. I thought if they cleaned it up a bit, got rid of the red, it'd be good enough. Hopefully it'll still be around as a secondary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just flat out don't like it.Being from Baltimore, it always reminds me of this.I know it isn't the same, but I can't help but make the connection.

Here's the new Pittsburgh Pirates logo: I saw the new logo but I was hoping for something like a 80s modernize version,but I like the Pirates P it remained unchanged for years!

I don't feel like I see it that often. But the "C" cap just does not look that great. I really feel (and hope not to spur debate) that Wahoo needs to go "yesterday", but that "C" just does not look good. There is not enough contrast (like the red "C" on the Twins cap) and the "C" is blah. I prefer their 1980s "C". It was not great, but it did not hurt my eyes.

BBTV Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Posted by Craig Booth on 01/08/2014 at 12:17 PMBS I think the Dolan's tout this as respect for Native Americans when in reality their broke as' are just using it as an excuse to cut cost and go with a cheaper logo... But bet you won't see them doing away with memorabilia that refers to the team as the Tribe...LOL WUT?

mmajeski06 Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I'm personally tired of the Wahoo debate, and I am sure the Indians owners are as well. So they will slowly phase the Wahoo logo out (which is the best way to do it to avoid backlash from vocal fans). I'd like to see something better than the block C, but they have been building that one for awhile. Now does this appease the PC crowd, or do they go for the jugular and demand they drop the name Indians as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
