miktoxic Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 the C and B intertwined in the last group is the only thing i like.......on a hat. but the concept is certainly nothing new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tour2ma Posted October 11, 2014 Report Share Posted October 11, 2014 the C and B intertwined... concept is certainly nothing new. Reminds me of the old Cleveland Builder Supply logo... A large "S" with a smaller "C" tucked in its top half and "B" in the bottom... meh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cysko Kid Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 Of all those logos I only really like the helmet. The elf is classic so it's ok. But really they all are not very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erie Dawg Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 I dig the simplicity of the logos. Some of the hats and shirts these days have to much going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miktoxic Posted October 14, 2014 Report Share Posted October 14, 2014 like i said i like the intertwined C and B the guy had up on his mock up page. BUT intertwined typeface is only used in baseball the majority of the time (don't know why). give me a simple block varsity typeface B embroidered in orange on a brown hat and i'm happy. if anyone was thinking this shit would go on a helmet then i'd say you're sadly mistaken. i don't understand though why when they do the throwback uni sundays the browns never go with the white ones worn way back in the day. almost looks like penn state. can't tell by the pics but i wonder if they were white with dk brown?

I wrote a small research paper for my Sports Marketing class on that very subject. Basically, I believe it has to do with the overall objective of each game. Baseball, regardless if it is true or not, tends to be thought of as a more sophisticated sport. Baseball isn't about strong-arming or beating down your opponent. It's the least physically-demanding sport that features the least amount of contact (once again, these are just overall generalizations gleaned from a small on-campus survey...at a school that prides itself on baseball, mind you). These script logos that are more apparent in baseball are all about tradition and class. That shit just doesn't fly in the NFL. A script logo doesn't come across as fearful, intimidating, what have you. It's part of the reason the Dolphins, Vikings, and Patriots moved away from their script lettering and now feature bolder, stronger text on a lot of their merchandise. You have to go something like 10 pages in on the Patriots shop to even find one item of clothing with the script lettering. The only script style logo that I can think of off-hand that is still prominently used is the Bears "B" hat, and I think that looks stupid.

bbedward Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 I'd take the circular C with the B in it on a hat. The other ones I'm not so fond of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
