    If you're reading this Blazers brass, just go back to this logo and this font and call it a day!!!

    Okay, I've gone back and read through her observations. A few things:

    I don't think you knows what "ornate" means. Also, everything about the Pels aesthetics sucks - awful logo, awful colors.

    Thanks captain obvious! Who woulda thought that colors on opposite sides of the color wheel would "pop"!?! And lines creating a sense of movement? Brilliant!

    Should have incorporated another splash of red? So that it'd be more busy, which was your complaint about the Wizards logo that you rank ahead of the 76ers? Also, the 76ers logo is FUCKING GREAT!

    I don't think you know what "retro" or "cool" mean. Or perhaps you're 3 years old? Maybe then this might look "retro"...except for the fact that it looks exactly like the generic WCF/ECF logos being used right now by the NBA.

    First off, it doesn't look anything like Pac-Man - it looks like a Pac-Man ghost. Also, Pac-Man and the ghosts are great, iconic designs/characters!

    Soooooo, ORL should change their team colors? I don't disagree, but that doesn't really have anything to do with their logo design (which I agree is boring).

    Is that a BAD thing? I thought you liked retro? Oh, right, you don't know what retro means. As much as I hate the Suns, this is a pretty damned good looking logo.

    Zero colors!?! For a team whose colors are black & grey!?! You don't say!

    But antlers [BUCKS] or insect abdomen [HORNETS] forming a basketball is legit? How is one to determine what sorts of objects can and can't be used to describe a basketball?

    Her flippant opinions have already received more attention than they deserve.

    But hey, that's the internet, and it's a slow news day.

    Our logo was and still is the best logo in sports...I loved the upright one but I also really like the tilt and the silver added...it's a classy logo either way. I do like the ripcity or portland without caps though

    As others have said, the logo in the article ain't really the logo.

    It looks horrible. The pinwheel on the other hand is fucking awesome

    I'm not a fan of our Logo which is what generally shows up on a lot of merchandise. That being said the pinwheel is still the best in sports and that should put us ahead of many teams. The fact that the Clippers aren't last means I don't care about this persons opinion...
