How much does the Flying Elvis logo suck that Brady wears Pat Patriot beanies to his pressers?

[Salva135]

I mean, seriously. Just go back.

 

[PatsDeb]

I've seem him wear both, and I'll take the Flying Elvis any day over old bent over Pat Patriot. The Flying Elvis is way cooler, even in nicknames!

I mean, what team has its star player wearing its old school logo?

 

[Mike the Brit]

Trollwatch ...

 

[Kontradiction]

Flying Elvis > Pat Patriot. At least IMO. At least aesthetically the color scheme looks better and the Flying Elvis has been associated with much more winning than Pat Patriot. Again, JMO.

 

[Froob]

Both are awesome. Bring pat back twice a season (maybe once on the road?) just paint the helmets like other teams do to get around the changing helmet ban.

 

[Bertil]

...and the British wore the Red uniforms....so there's THAT!

 

[dales804]

And yet, his jacket has the Flying Elvis logo on it. It's a throwback hat. Wouldn't make sense to stamp the new logo on there.

Pats throwbacks the best unis in the NFL IMO

Flying Elvis looks so damn good in the snow, though. Bad weather and flying Elvis just go together like apple and pie

I think both logos are great. To me the old logo represents the long suffering we as fans endured to reach this epitome of success that is taken for granted now.
I was there when **** McPherson was rolling on the ground (literally) after his only win of the year....

Get a grip, during the games, Brady wears what the team gives him to wear. Please note, I didn't say they make him wear it. What they do is give him a certain selection of items he can wear on the sidelines, and he gets to pick. If he wants a knit hat, it's going to be the Pat Patriot knit hat. It's called "merchandising." The team wants to sell as much stuff with the Patriots' logo, name, and colors as possible. What better way to stimulate a market than to have their most popular player wear something during a game. If all they sold was Flying Elvis logo gear, the market would be limited. Selling Pat Patriot gear in addition to Flying Elvis gear broadens the market. If you already have a Flying Elvis knit hat, you probably won't buy another Flying Elvis knit hat, but you may buy a Pat Patriot knit hat. Capiche?

Bingo! Both hats are high in demand and have sold out.

Pat Patriot + Flying Elvis =$$$$$

Bob: Hi Tom.
Tom: Mr Kraft how are you today.
Bob: Good thanks. Can you wear this hat today? There's a surplus in the pro shop and your wearing one will help sales.
Tom: Sure no problem, anything to help out.

As likely as he prefers one logo over the other.

Earlier this year, he wore the same hat but it was the one with the current logo. He switched to the hat with the throwback logo late in the season.

I must be the only one who likes the flying elvis logo. I also like the Pat patriot logo. So either or is fine but I prefer the current logo and uniforms.

 

[Patsattax]

Seeing pat patriot remind sme of a Jim Norton bit on O&A where they were discussing what team symbols would win in a fight. Norton took the flying Elvis over that "bent over fruit". Not really pertinent to anything but it always cracks me up when I see pat patriot now.

You aren't alone. PatsDeb posted that same preference in post #2. Tommy LomBrady also prefers the Flying Elvis logo.

 

[reflexblue]

i always liked the old pat patriot better. when the flying elvis came out it struck me that the team was trying to hard to be different, to be snazzyer.

 

[italian pat patriot]

i can imagine you know my point of view...

dear Pat Patriot

 

[Patriot Missile]

Love the Flying Elvis. Tom Brady wore the Elvis logo on field knit hat in his post Miami game and it sold out NFL Pro shop within days. So much that it is discontinued.

I prefer the newer logo but I'm not picky either. Still respect and like Pat Patriot and still honor the tradition of the franchise.
