The Swamp

It irrationally bugs me how the Rockets swapped the white in their road uniforms for grey.

Flames home reds are horrible.

Yeah - that logo sucks, but it's particularly gross in black.

Speaking of hockey - it'd be hard to find a group of 6 logos and uniforms in any sport as great as the Original 6.

Hockey Uniform Rabbit Hole

Talking about good sports logos, it probably didn't hurt having MJ wear it for 13 years, but I think a thousand years from now the Bulls logo and uni would look perfect if it never changes. Just a perfect marriage of color, script, and iconic graphics.

Taking feedback on this thing I did for fun. It needs more oomph but I'm not sure what and where.

Maybe put the NEW JERSEY caption in the upper right, then move the zoom-in circle to the middle/lower right, to minimize the empty space where the ocean currently is.

Good work, though.

Seems bird-heavy.

Relative size of the logo indicates the NCAA Division level I take it.

And St. Peter's is in Jersey City.

Nice. Alma mater represented, along with the current home town school (Cougar Country!).

Maybe put the Highlanders logo on the upper right corner of school description?

Are there two Fairleigh Dickinson's? There's definitely a D1 version and I don't think its in Madison. Should that be Drew?

Totally good graphic idea, but in my actual job that I should be doing right now, I only like to move the inset away from the main map if there's a "see inset" square around the area, which I didn't want to do here.

Fitting, eh?

Yes. But I can't tell yet if the small stuff will print well at the intended size (or even what the intended size should be)

Fixed, thanks

Want to keep the logo as close the actual location as possible and then make the text flexible. I love that whole NJIT identity by the way.

There are indeed - the Wiki list totally missed the D1 campus. I think I realized that as I was doing this but figured the main team must be in NY or something.

I only knew FD because they're in Marist's conference and used to be kinda good I think?

Could you put a small pic of me waving near Seton Hall? Its only like 1.5 miles from my house.

No, because then I'd have to do it for every Swa...ok yes

I'll post more states as I do them - wanted to start with something dense (nailed it).

There is a lot of empty space in South Jersey. And I had no idea there was a college in Caldwell.

I've discovered a flaw in my plan. Christ, educate much?!?

You could just acknowledge that anyone below D-1 shouldn't matter anyway?

The mascot for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics and Paralympics will be revealed tomorrow.

Japanese elementary students had 73 days to vote for their favorite pair of mascots. More than 200,000 classes from around 16,000 schools, including Japanese schools overseas, were able to vote on the three different mascots.

Which do you like?

I'm going to get my agent to see if they need help writing the inevitable anime series based on these guys.

I am imagining something like this show from my youth. However the budget for licensing hall of famers is replaced by the budget for bribing sportacrats. Wait, there is the first script.....The characters show how there is no shady backroom deals...I mean if you are going to propoganda...go all the way.

Already have an episode pitch: "The plucky mascots discover a secret Russian lab docked in Tokyo Bay, and it's a race against time to rally the gang of plucky scientists of "WADA Force" for an attack on the evil doers. Will they get there in time? Or will the entire Olympics be ruined by a massive leakage of Putinium?"

Also, on an unrelated note, there's this.

Shouldn't the paralympic logo have..um...something wrong?

Looks like club feet?

The pink one Degen posted is the Paralympic mascot. I said logo by mistake.

I just looked it up - the previous Paralympic mascots displayed no obvious disabilities.

Except maybe Mandeville from London (on the right) who shows obvious signs of having a drug-addled creator.

Maybe he/she just can't control his/her bladder.

I legitimately like the Columbus Blue Jackets logo but I can’t get over that if you told me the Capitals were coming out with a new logo and that was it I’d buy it.

MiLB is doing Mexican themed logos and there's a flying sandal one (San Antonio Flying Chanclas). As someone who doesn't have a Mexican mother, but did have his mother hit him with a shoe once, I am getting this.

The chupacabra and rascas ones are amazing as well.

ETA - and the Mariachi one

Best hats I have ever seen. That Vegas one is great!

I'm not a hat guy, but I still need to get one of those Las Vegas "Reyes de Plata" hats. Almost all of them are awesome, but I'm definitely partial to Vegas'
