It's definitely worth the read. There's some nice figures on the page about the "evolution" of the logo design. At no point was this concept anything more than a disgusting pile of crap.

It was an awful logo. Almost unbelievable that it ended up on the jersey. Unfathomable. To give the guy a little credit, however, I'll say that the alternate Wizards design is good.
DC Tom Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 I've always been in the "So bad it's good" camp regarding the slug. It's so awful it's a classic...it's the "Manos: The Hands of Fate" of logos. And "Furry horned cashew nut" is the funniest description of Sluggalo I've ever read. Looking at the evolution of it, it's absolutely !@#$ing amazing to realize that the slug was, in fact, the best of the group.
shrader Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Now if only they could unearth the guy who designed the mooterus for the Dallas Stars. How could they not see exactly what that one looked like?

Probably the same guy that designed the front grille for the Edsel ("You could put hair on it and call it the 'Ethel'.")
Dr. Fong Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 I might be alone in this, but I liked the slug better than the goat.

ajzepp Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 I'll never understood why the Sabres went away from those beautiful jerseys they had pre-slug. Thank goodness my Flyers would never do anything that absurd!
bbb Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 I might be alone in this, but I liked the slug better than the goat. No doubt about it. I hated those unis.
ExiledInIllinois Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 I'll never understood why the Sabres went away from those beautiful jerseys they had pre-slug. Thank goodness my Flyers would never do anything that absurd! Orange is horrible! Illinois and the Chicago really gotta down play the orange and hightlight the dark blue more! :P Sorry Syracuse! IMO, just a bad combination with any color!

Ramius Posted March 16, 2012 Author Posted March 16, 2012 Doesn't clash with winning, baby!!!! apparently it does, because when was the last time the flyers won anything?
