What was the first sports team to have a modern-style logo? Flat, sharp lines, just a head in profile, usually something flowing toward the back, etc.
It might have been the Vikings. This logo is from 1966. It's not perfectly modern because the lines aren't thick, there's too much detail, and the shading on the horns keeps it from being completely flat, but it's like the prototype.
Who else? 1993
>>153065912Wow it even has the "shoulder curve" thing on the lower left that all of them do
>>153065977the Pat Patriot logo is so much better. It's just a shame that it's tied with failure.
>>153066050I love it
>>153066050Drake "Drake "Hyperborea" Maye" Maye can bring it back.
>>153065840
>>153066050wtf im a pats fan now?!
>>153065977>>153066050I'm pretty sure they can win future Super Bowls wearing the old Pat Patriot logo. The "Flying Elvis" era Patriots had a great run but now it's time to replace it.
>>153066050They still wear the throwbacks a few times a year. It's not even that they hate it, it's just that the flying elvis is what they wore when they won all six of their super bowls.
I genuinely don’t get it, there was literally nothing wrong with 97-2012. The current logo looks like something someone threw together on photoshop very quick.
>>153066244Looks more like an airline logo than the true Current Year Sports Logo style.
>>153066361It’s called "Recent new owner wants to stamp acquisition as MINE MINE MINE", many such cases
>>153065840Buffalo Bills logo is untouched since 1973? Super forward thinking.
since 1980. Not the first but a good example
>>153066050I still associate it with going 1-15 and 2-14 and every boomer over 40 does too
>>153065840Denver's logo looks like a fucking donkey. It's the worst logo in football even worse than the Rams. Raiders and Seahawks (old) have the best logosMy answer for first modern-style logo would be Toronto Blue Jays, LA Kings or Indiana Pacers
>>153065840>>153065912>>153065977This not "modern style logo" this is just cartoon styled, you could see this all the time on car stickers from 60 years agoModern style logo would be something like manchester city
>>153068598>Modern style logo would be something like manchester cityRetard. At least say Arsenal
Do you mean modern by "contemporary with today's style" or Modern as in Modern Style in the concept of Modern as an art movement that dominated the 50s-70s.The New York Giants 1961 Logo which has remained primary or secondary and the style unchanged since then is a good contender if that's your discussion point. If you just mean that post-80s cool aesthetic that crept in during millennial childhoods, the Grizzlies, Raptors and Mighty Ducks of Anaheim are great contenders that beat Denver's run.
Our logo: Untouched since 1963
>>153068690Both are modern dumbass
>>153068779Calling this movement (or any art movement) "modern" was of tremendous stupidity and we are still paying for it to this day
>>153070282Neither logo is at all "modern" Forest is a Modern Logo
>>153070380You're this mad at Brasilia?
>>153070442No i like brasilia but calling it modern meant that now we have niggas thinking that modernism, corporate memphis and minimalism are all the same thing
>>153070282No dumbass Man City's current logo is the one from the 1970s
San Fransisco sipped the anti-soul juice pretty early.
1992
>>153070656This is a top 10 worst sports logos
>>153070554>modernism, corporate memphis and minimalismwell that's cause they're idiots. Doesn't make you not an idiot for calling City's logo Modern.
>>153070689It actualls sells decently outside the US. It's a bad logo at all you just hate San Francisco.
>>153066361
i don't hate the angry bird logo but even the one directly before this was SOUL incarnatean eagle holding a football is what life is all about
>>153070689It sucks, but not as bad as:>chargersAn lightning >cowboysA fucking sun>coltsHorseshoe>jetsSelf explanatory>bengalsA letter B>redskinsA fucking W
>>153071728for me, every washington dc logo is terrible>walgreens natinals>W with slightly more lines WFT notredskins>Wizards with no WIzards involved at all, literally just the old bullets logo, just go back to being the bullets you pussies, what does this have to do with Wizards at all anymore>Capitals non logo (hockey stick as an L, how bold!)
I like the saints logosimple, related to the city, not another animal or letter logo
>>153071728Chargers, Cowboys, Bengals and Colts are classic helmet designs. Jets are just bad as a team, their green uniforms are endearing. Washington's Logo is just too 2020s to get any respect.
>>153071919I hate the French of you want a French Logo watch the McDonalds Ligue 1
WSU 1936
>>153071449>It's a bad logo at allAgreed, thanks for conceding
>>153071684agreed that one is sovl. Honestly wish we could just freeze time in 1987 forever
>>15307168487 looks like a D-tier university logo
>>153072361no, it is a simple, badass looking eagle, colored green, holding a footballit looks great
>>153066361>2013Why would Miami fix what isn't broken? The dolphin looked better with the helmet on. 2018 didn't even try too. They just redrew the tail and then downgraded the brightness to 20%. What terrible rebranding.
The league with the best logos is NHL, then MLS, then MLB, then NBA and finally NFL. NFL has the worst logos without question. Rams, Browns, Bengals, 49ers, Packers, Commanderedskins, Donkeys, Ravens and Dolphins are straight up trash
>>153072435great for the University of Southwestern Arkansas Div 5 team, maybe
>>153072482Stephen Ross is a faggot.
>>153065912this one honestly might be the patient zero
>>153073146good morning saar
>>153066312Nah, if you win chips with a logo you've gotta keep it foreveryou don't see the Yankees or the Canadiens changing things up
>>153072117i'm a UW grad and even i will admit that this is absolutely inspired. if you went to WSU that means good
>>153069835I feel like the move to Kansas is going to come with some other changes.
>>153072117WSU is absolute kino
1996
>>153065840>>153065912Doesn't the Chicago Bulls logo predate both ? Seems like it might be the first of the modern logos especially when you compare it to other _4 team logos of the 50s and early 60s.
>>153075745t. U. SWArk Div 5 alumni
>>153079829Chicago bulls had their inaugural season the same year. It seems both the 60s and 90s had waves of modernization
>>153079829>>153080540>>153072117>>153071919None of you know what Modern is artistically, you're just using it for "what feels like normal today" >>153071728All those teams except the Redskins are pretty much Modern designs.
>>153066312kids say it looks like the chad meme. i like flying elvis better.
>>153071854there isnt anything likeable about DC. they dont have much to work with.
>>153072361which is why their fans love it.
>>153080568shut up nerd
>>153071646Ross needs to be put out of his misery and launched from one of the spires at the hard rock for replacing the based fin with the helmet with the retarded whale logo. Fucking decrepit senile jew fuck.
>>153071646the nfl should make a rule that all animal logos need to be wearing a helmet or some other type of football equipment
>>153071854'Wizards" is just too generic . It's like having a team called the Soldiers.Now, if they were the Washington Necromancers, that would be something
>>153066050this>>153068091it was before my era but you couldn't give tickets away and they were this close to leaving foxboro in 1994
>>153066361i had no idea they took the helmet off
>>153085409Too many syllables, it's tongue-clumsy like your little sister.
>>153085409Should just be the Washington Senators desu, that was the name of their old baseball team.
>>153085409for me, it's Washington Weasels
>>153088084They can't just copy Ottawa's thing, even though ironically US Senators actual do something, unlike useless Canadian ones
>>153088118>JetsFuck off jeet. The Washington Senators were a baseball team 100 years ago
>>153088152like I give a fuck about boresball
>>153066361Dolphin should be catching a football like a mackerel instead of wearing a helmet imo
the old Broncos D is quite possibly the best in the NFL, imo.
>>153088118There's copies of names across multiple sports.>New York and San Francisco Giants>Arizona and St Louis Cardinals>New York and Texas Rangers>Carolina and Florida Panthers>Winnipeg and New York JetsWashington Senators as a basketball team would be an improvement over Wizards.
>>153088596>heya hoya, dude
It should be DC Defenders like the old XFL team. Such an amazing name
>>153065912This one always upsets me for some reason. It's just not a good logo.>>153065977This is a good logo despite some redditors wanting the old one back. Simple, recognizable, easy to use.>>153070656Really good logo
>>153085409Old Wizards logo was kino though.It was nice to have a Washington team with a colour scheme that's not red-white-blue or dominant red too.
>>153066361>I genuinely don’t get itselling merch
>>153071728>Browns>a fucking ORANGE helmetIf they actually printed the helmet on the side of their helmets, it would be so retarded it turns around and becomes genius.
