You guys need to check this out! (http://www.underconsideration.com/brandnew/archives/in_brief_columbuss_new_crew.php) Someone created a logo for the Kolumbus Krew to adopt. But it looks like something out of a fascist rally.

But doesn't the 96 on the shield have a swastika look to it?

^ It does, really, really strangely, does resemble a swatstika.

But it also looks very...Stalinish. Sorry.

Better than the one they got now. I kinda like it, but it's a really bad name to begin with. I mean, the Columbus Crew?! Are you kidding me?!

There is extensive talk about this on Chris Creamer Sports Logo site and on the Crew boards across Ohio.
I think they just need to drop the Crew name and go with Columbus 96, the year they started, like Hannover 96. Heck, most Crew fans think they started the MLS so let them have the year the Crew and the league were created.
It makes better sense than the Crew.

I don't see what the problem is, I kinda like it and it's alot better than the one they have now.

They can still fuck right off tho

I think it looks more like a shitty attempt at art deco.

The team and its fans are still a joke to the league but the proposed logo is waaaaay better than what they have now. The new "crew" on the badge actually look like they're somewhat tough, not just 3 "gansta" douchebags who can hardly grow a moustache. Still a horrible name for a team but a big step up, IMHO (though it would have been impossible for it to get worse). And anyone who's been around this board for a while knows how much hate I have for them.

It's funny for them to admit that:



Where sloppiness once was is now a crisp collection of elements working together. Precise outlines and mathematical spacing present the Crew as an uncompromising bunch.


Well, at least they've recognized it. But I still don't get the whole massive thing. Is is because their fans are fat? Because Sigi Schmid was huge? I don't know.

P.S. The 96 does look like kind of a swastika and it does look Stalinist. They must have been tired of being Nazis and racists, I guess.

They have by far the gayest name and logo in football today. Every time I see that logo I picture the Village People in my head. They need to scrap the Crew from their name as well as the chipendale dancers. Who ever suggested Columbus 96 is dead on. I hate when Americans try to bastardize the sport. Toronto FC is a proper name for a club, Not crap like the Crew, the Fusion, the Galaxy, the Revolution

Art Deco was used by the Nazis, the Italian Fascists and the Soviets in the 1930's.

The proposed new KKKrew logo really has that feel.

A fitting logo for the KKKrew IMO.

it's just as gay as their last one. they might as well just come out of the closet and have the village people bumfucking on their crest.

^ The village people did come to mind the first time I saw the Crew logo.

Regardless of the new design it should be changed, the current one is AWFUL!

it's designed to look like the Communist propaganda posters that are all the rage now.

one big design flaw with the Krew one is that they didn't use any colour. They went for an 'all white' style, which could have a nasty undertone to it.

I think they should change it. I thought that they were a Clockwork Orange team by their silhouettes on the present badge.

The new logo seems to remind me of the title screen graphics for some crappy 80s Commodore 64 video game for some reason...

I read some of that thread on Big Soccer... it was a looooooong thread...
And most Crew fans did not like it much from what I could see.

And before you ask me - why was I on Big Soccer??? .... The RPB site was down for maintenance and I was bored!


I do think they need to change it though... it's a pretty lame crest (if you can call it a crest)
And the font in the suggested crest is pretty crap!

TOBOR !

SIMPLIFY: Get rid of the fussy details in the old dudes and present a clean, iconic illustration for the new.


... and the minorities. Just clone the big white guy.

actually, the redesign makes me think of :

The 96 defintely has a swastika look to it... Its kinda creepy...

Take that out, and I think its an improvement. It’s kinda like going from diarrhea to normal shit...

I don't know about you guys but I think their marketing department is bang on.

Now their unvieling ceremony that starts with C&C Music Factory's "Everybody Dance Now" makes a hell of a lot of sense.
