The New Miami Marlins Logo Has Been Confirmed
I posted the new Miami Marlins logo on Tuesday night thinking it might be real or fake. On the internet, you never know. Well, ESPN’s Page 2 has confirmed that this is, in fact, the new logo of the Miami Marlins.
Personally, I don’t hate the logo as a picture on the internet, but I cringe at the idea of that M and fish-swoosh on the uniforms. It looks like a Marlins logo that would appear on a limited edition fitted flat brim worn by a particularly colorful pimp. Assuming pimps wore flat brim 59/50s instead of fedoras. I think I’m getting off topic.
Let’s be democratic about this. Does the public like the new look?

It looks like the logo for a deep sea fishermen convention. Just awful.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:05 PM
Are you kidding me? Looks like I owe you an apology, and I got a new avatar.

Apparently the WWL doesn’t recognize you, Stephen.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:07 PM
Does this mean CRM has to pick a new team? There is clearly not enough teal.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:08 PM
It looks like a logo for an NES baseball game that doesn’t have rights for the official team logos.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:09 PM
Key West Marlins.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:09 PM
I can’t think of how to put it in other ways, but this is really a fucking atrocious logo and color scheme.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:10 PM
Those colors have the potential to challenge the White Sox “Shorts” uniforms for some of the ugliest of all time.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:11 PM
Yeah… that was a completely misread quote by me, but I’m not going to put that thing as an avatar unless CRM makes me.
I don’t mind the Marlin, but the ‘M’ is hideous, and the lettering looks like it should say “GIANTS” to me for some reason.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:11 PM
I actually don’t think it’s terrible. I like the font. It’s Miami. They weren’t the NY Yankees.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:12 PM
Also, the caption on the picture is incorrect. They will no longer be the Florida Marlins, but rather the Miami Marlins.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:12 PM
Easily reproduced on a panel van.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:13 PM

Still a ways to go.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:13 PM

It’s better than if they’d blatantly ripped off another teams logo.. a la the University of GA stealing the Packers “G”.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:13 PM
Not much creativity in this neck of the woods.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:13 PM
I actually don’t think it’s terrible. I like the font. It’s Miami. They weren’t the NY Yankees.
I don’t think anyone is arguing that they can’t change their uniforms or colors, only that this particular change is horrendous.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:14 PM
If the two-piece Marlin’s tail turned/evolved into a script M (with just those two colors), instead of being speared by it, it could actually look decent.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:15 PM
The old one was better. This one isn’t awful, it’s just weird. Who has 3 colors in their scheme? Aqua, orange and yellow? It looks like the logo for a hotel that has a fishing excursion. Or something that I might see on a cruise ship.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:15 PM
Correct.
I understood they needed to change the “F” logo if they’re re-branding themselves as the “Miami Marlins” and i suppose there is a need to update the teal that was played out in 1993, but still….yeeeeesh.

See I don’t think those are that bad. The aquamarine hurts my eyes a little after awhile, but otherwise those are fine. They’d probably even look good if they went with a shade that was less green and more blue.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:18 PM

Well, their entire organization is pretty abstract except for the every 8 years or so when they go and win the fucking world series.

If I recall correctly, he sold Blockbuster for a ton right before NetFlix got big and essentially put them out of business. I could be wrong though.

I wish I was a Packers fan so I could respond to this with “/belt”, but alas I am not. So instead I’ll just point out that the Bears suck and Mario Williams would rip Cutler’s face off.

I think those uniforms are more silly than anything. They don’t look bad per se, just dumb. It also helps that the White Sox only wore the uniform shorts 3 or 4 times in that season.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:28 PM
SC’s a fan of the McCaskeys since they don’t believe in paying talent
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:29 PM
The block lettering is solid. That ‘M’ needs to go though.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:29 PM
I did enjoy going to my local Blockbuster back in the day. Always an odd assortment of clientele at video stores.
September 22nd, 2011 at 3:29 PM
I like the M and the swooshy fish. The problem is the color scheme. Teal and black really wasn’t that bad of a color combination, and if they wanted blue because of the color of the new ballpark’s seats, they could have make it blue, silver, and black, or something like that.

And the McCaskeys are dead to me. I have faith that the son will be better. It will follow Chicago sports tradition that like Rocky did. Bill Wirtz was the single worst owner in sports history. Then, Rocky came around and turned the franchise into a winner.
Chris Johnson still didn’t deserve a fucking cent. Not one.

Toss up. Basically comes down to would you rather have your team relocated or treated like a depreciating asset? Bill treated the Hawks strictly like a business. He didn’t care about winning, just about making money.
At least Modell kept players the fans became attached to.
