ExiledInIllinois Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Why don't they just bring back the brownie (elf). I know, not exactly "manly"... But this is the "New NFL!" Nobody will laugh. Oh wait: LoL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 People actually get paid to come up with stuff like this: http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/football/browns-reveal-new-logo-old-logo-article-1.2127288 ooh 50 shades of orange, ingenious.

\GoBillsInDallas/ Posted February 25, 2015 Author Share Posted February 25, 2015 Try to lighten up and come at this from the perspective an actual professional graphic designer. What do you have to work with exactly? The team is named after a boring, common surname, which is evocative of one of the least stylish and most ugly colors on the entire spectrum. You take it from there. What do YOU come up with? I know, it's a lot easier to attack others than shine a light on your own talent, or lack thereof. http://www.cleveland.com/browns/index.ssf/2013/01/cleveland_browns_new_uniforms.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homey D. Clown Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I like the old color better too, but the new "dawg" is cooler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
May Day 10 Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I think its really dumb how "Dawg Pound" is incorporated into the logo. My only real complaint but to me its very hokey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMadCap Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 Leave it to the Browns to overpay a logo designer to simply swap out their printer with better ink cartridges I would however like to see the chargers commit to going back to their powder blues. That would be worth the buildup. Haha. I'm totally stealing that dude. Their new unis better be great, because so far, this is a joke... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dhg Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 I think this guy hits the nail on the head. (no, it's not Peter Pan) Great article. In particular I loved: "Someone was actually paid big bucks to write "The orange ... matches the passion of our fans and city" And talking points like the brown facemask bringing toughness and a "play like a Brown mantra".

Chuck Wagon Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 The new "Dog" logo is waaay worse. I have a bigger problem with the way the franchise hyped it all up in the media as this grand unveiling. Feels like they wanted to distract people from the mess in the front office so they promised something big, realized they couldn't actually put a logo on the helmet and had to do something somewhat noticeable so changed the orange and facemask. The Browns are such a joke. It seems every year their fans get completely fed up by the end of the season and swear off the team, then the team does something flashy (draft Johnny, hire a new coach, hire a new gm, "change their logo") and people forget they were mad and go right back to blindly buying in by the time August rolls around.

BillsFan-4-Ever Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 (edited) This.

eball Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 This. I realize there is only so much you can do with the helmet but why the unnecessary build-up? ...and the absolutely ridiculous writeup on the Oranges' website about the "passion" of the color orange and "toughness" of the color brown. If I'm a fan of that team I'm embarrassed today. It really might be the worst logo "reveal" in the history of professional sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Wagon Posted February 25, 2015 Share Posted February 25, 2015 distracting attention to deflect that they have a huge ? at QB More likely to deflect from "text-gate" (can we stop putting "gate" on anything remotely controversial already) and the string of negative media attention painting Haslam as a more clueless Jerry Jones or Al Davis wannabe.
