PhlyBoy Posted June 5, 2014 Author Share Posted June 5, 2014 why does national football league commissioner still approve these bland Super Bowl logosBecause this whole standardized logo set is basically his baby. He'll see it through. I'm guessing we won't see a change in the standardized logos until at least Goddell is gone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rams80 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 San Jose's part of the Bay Area, there's nothing about them on this logo.If you squint you can see a shark impaled on one of the stadium posts.

phutmasterflex Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Hmm. I was thinking Muir Woods, myself.I just think it's ironic that they insist on "San Francisco Bay Area" but then don't show anything that's not CIty of San Francisco except the stadium itself. Sort of like how the "New York/New Jersey" Super Bowl used nothing but NYC imagery (again, except for the stadium itself):That's what happens when the San Francisco 49ers decide to play in Santa Clara, which is nearly an hour away from SF. I really hate how it's apparently a trend for sports teams to just not play in the city they represent. I know it's been happening for years but it's really really annoying.It's the Muir Woods. It says it right there in the press release. How come no one else has figured out the reason (which the NFL will never admit to) that they gave San Francisco the 50th Super Bowl is that it's the 49th anniversary of the original one. Hence 49ers -- 49th anniversary....That is not the reason why they got the rights to the Super Bowl. Go A's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elwood Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 it's okay, but I don't like the "5" with an underbite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muggens Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Yeah, no thanks. The silver looks much better.What are the landmarks in the regional logo? I see the Transamerica Pyramid, the Ferry Building, the Coit Tower and the Golden Gate Bridge. Are there any "regional" landmarks that aren't actually in San Francisco itself?Needs some nondescript office parks and a gridlocked bayshore fwy to represent santa clara.Are you not the idiot who hates bay area sports teams or am I wrong here?

They look good and create a uniform vibe for each year's event. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I'm cool with the logo, wasn't expecting it to reinvent the wheel. But couldn't they have colored the 'L' in Super Bowl gold just as a subtle nod to the Roman numerals.I think that's too clever by half. Most people won't get it, and for the vast percentage of those who don't, it'll just look like a coloring error. Also it wouldn't work with this design, since the "L" isn't silver, it's black.

I'm particularly indifferent to bay area sports but I do think Santa Clara county is by far the nicest bedroom community in the nation. Living in a vast suburban landscape yet being a 1 hour drive to the dynamic culture of SF is impressive. The ultra-committed fan support for the Sharks is also quite impressive despite their history of consistently coming up short in the postseason.

sportsfan0518 Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 You want to get technical, it's part of New York County, like Manhattan, Governor's Island, Roosevelt Island and a couple others. As a federal park, that's largely academic. But it is in no way New Jersey.Unfortunately that is true, and I am Jersey born and raised. New York always overshadows us in everything.

The Golden One Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 New Super Bowl Host Committee logo..Says they weren't allowed to include stadium because NFL owns the rights to using it. Does the host committee usually create a new logo after they win the game (from bid to now host committee) and one that doesn't say super bowl or host committee? I don't seem to remember that happening. Here's the story on this logo. (also talks about slight to south bay even though hosted by them)http://www.mercurynews.com/southbayfootball/ci_25904451/super-bowl-at-49ers-stadium-40-million-raisedHere's the original bid committee logo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
