NESN: Hard to Believe This Monstrosity Almost Became Pats Logo

[fnordcircle]

I actually really like this, but I try to enjoy things in life not just find reasons to hate them.

That’s a piss poor attitude.

It's conceptually the same as flying Elvis, just really poorly assembled. They're/we're lucky it didn't poison the concept for the current one. Or maybe we're not.

 

[Actual Pats Fan]

Doesn't really bother me - it's just as good as any logo. Logos are not really relevant. Wins and trophies are...

...said the guy who's team has the worst logo and uniform in sports...

 

[Actual Pats Fan]

Like the geese flying north, a Pats logo story signals the offseason is fully here.

"The birds fly south, before the first snow..."

 

[Actual Pats Fan]

Nonsense, have you met @Actual Pats Fan and the ongoing battle for logo historical contextualization realization?

OMG, not another thread about the logo and uniforms?!

 

[Actual Pats Fan]

I was there for the 'vote' game. Not even Goodell draws the kind of booing that monstrosity got from us. Back when the team was the redheaded step child of Boston sports we long timers sported Pat Patriot gear like a badge of honor.

I still do.

 

[Actual Pats Fan]

I was at that game. I of course booed the hell out of the proposed new logo.

I felt nauseated when I heard about the proposal.

Then, an overwhelming sense of relief after the vote.

BTW, we beat the "Air Coryell" Chargers that day.

I laughed at this line...spot on:

"It looks like someone with a passion for Mt. Rushmore or The Old Man on the Mountain got their hands on Microsoft Paint a decade before its 1985 release."

For fans of the team for 33 years, It’s Impossible To Accept The Patriots’ Logo Did Become This Monstrosity.

Aw, yeah! The bat signal has been turned on. Wait! I hear his theme music now...

Na na na na na na na na...
Na na na na na na na na...
APFMAN!

"Those in favor of keeping the flying elvis, eleven.

Those in favor of restoring our old logo, one.

Well, that's it, we know where we stand."

You assh0le, OP. You just triggered APF so badly that he posted 7 times in a row. Poor guy just malfunctioned.

 

[Actual Pats Fan]

(and way different from) the Flying Elvis

Could this be a Laurel or Yanny thing?

I mean, I count at least two dozen virtually identical similarities between these two.

Orthwein - whose hometown friends, the NFL, opposing teams and cities and even local Boston media all say nothing but how the Patriots suck - so he takes an enormous dump on all the fans who unanimously chose to keep our logo and uniform - the one thing we can count on, week after week, game after game, year after year even when we lose - was that we looked better than any other team anywhere in the world.

As I've pointed out before, even fans of other teams across the nation used to like the Patriots because of our uniforms.

In their own words, "Once the change was made, my fandom of the Patriots ended."

Meanwhile, the differences between these two require a magnifying glass and a metric ton of spin and propaganda to identify...

 

[chris_in_sunnyvale]

I still do.

Must...resist...Nick...Cage...meme...

Damn it.

The star actually represents the hole left behind after a redcoat blasted this idiot's head off at point blank range...

I'm confused--what does this have to do with Brady's free agency?

 

[Clonamery]

Poor guy can’t read the cue card.

@Actual Pats Fan can you please enlighten him.

 

[Observer]

Can we all agree that Patriot Man underneath the logo whips though

Looks like M. Bison
