Default Already posted?covid fun.All sports logo challenge(spoilers, Flames good, Van not)

https://deadspin.com/and-then-there-...uel-1842748518


ok sure a wacky deadspin story but kinda fun. apologies if posted


Expos versus Whalers final!

all Canada/NHL final 4
Flames do very well- make it to the round of 8 beating the Clippers, NY Giants, NY Rangers and ST Cardinals- some tough competition


Canucks ranked 113/118 ahead of mostly some racist ones and a team (the Browns)without a logo- oh and the Ducks!


Oilers somehow ranked middle of the pack, but pretty classic comment


49. Edmonton Oilers

There’s a difference between timeless and dated. The Oilers’ logo has become dated. They’ve made small changes several times over the years, but never abandoned the basic concept…which also sounds like how the team has been run as a whole for the last 25 years

Can someone forward this to that guy who thought CP unfairly voted the Flaming C into the finals of an online poll?

The Atlanta Flaming "A" would've been a contender in this contest. Up there with the Hartford logo.

Ok I know this whole thing is ridiculous , but as defunct logos the Whale and Expos actually went into this thing unranked - in the first round they took out the Celtics and Raiders , both logos ranked in the top 4 seeds!

I like how the Oilers logo just gets darker and darker as the years go on...something something metaphor...

They basically applied bold and stretched comic sans to write 'Oilers' so 49th is actually ranked quite a bit too high.
