bustamente Posted November 27, 2015 Report Posted November 27, 2015 The league has some serious work to do as tv viewership dropped 15%, and the product did seem watered down this year, didn't help the amount a Qb's that got hurt but the on field product needs to get better across the league Logan007 1
JuranBoldenRules Posted November 27, 2015 Report Posted November 27, 2015 I hope they didn't spend a lot of money or time on this. Put the resources toward the actual product.
coach17 Posted November 27, 2015 Report Posted November 27, 2015 The new logo sucks, whether your old or young it sucks. It's got no pop.
kelownabomberfan Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 As a member of the 55+ group who are the biggest number of CFL watchers... New Logo - No better than the old one. Worse actually. Just grey and black inside a clipped football with a little bit of red. It doesn't pop. New Tagline - I couldn't have told you what the old tagline was. I'll forget the new one soon after finishing this post. New Video - I'd rather have more actual great football plays with a 'Video Game' look than footballs in flames and throwing a ball through glass. I didn't like the music either but I know it's not aimed at me. I doubt it brings in any more young fans that the league needs, but if it does, then I'm all for it. I thought the tagline was "Our balls are bigger". Still my favorite. coach17 1
FrostyWinnipeg Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 As the fans of team with a W as its logo, we should not complain. As the fans of a team that asked for help in designing a new logo(italicized W + lightning bolt) at no cost, we should not complain. Having said that...it's a light gray football with it's ends cut off. Makes a great app icon tho. Hey it fits!
Guest Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 I thought the tagline was "Our balls are bigger". Still my favorite. The tagline from when Cohon took over went from "Our Balls are Bigger" to "This is Our League". Still my favourite promo from any league.
Captain Blue Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 I don't mind the new logo. It looks alright, and it'll look good on jerseys, helmets, etc. I also liked the old logo. Seems like all pretty standard marketing stuff and I don't see any major gaffes, so that's a plus. I'm excited for the new jerseys. If they get those right, I'll be ecstatic.
Brandon Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 Count me in as not a big fan... quite generic imo
Goalie Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 Most sports logos are. Look at the NFL nhl NBA MLB for examples
iso_55 Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 Most sports logos are. Look at the NFL nhl NBA MLB for examples NFL & NHL are iconic. This isn't. It's just a logo not a Red Badge Of Courage.
blueandgoldguy Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 Barf, what a uninspired logo. Font is awful and looks outdated.
Fraser Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 That thing is the 'spirited energy' of logos. FrostyWinnipeg, blueandgoldguy, voodoochylde and 1 other 4
Goalie Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 Wonder if the NFL and nhl had just released the logos yesterday if you'd feel the same iso
Logan007 Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 The more I look at it, the more it bums me out. Don't we have enough cloudy days up in Canada that we have to use gray as a color in our CFL logo?
AtlanticRiderFan Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 The new logo is boring. Not a fan. Not sure that I would say that I hate it though. The old one was way more interesting though and emphasized the fact that we are a Canadian league. The maple leaf is so small on the new logo.
FrostyWinnipeg Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 Wonder if the NFL and nhl had just released the logos yesterday if you'd feel the same iso Well the NHL is the only one different from the red blue white of the other 3 and at least they changed the direction of the NHL couple of years ago. Still it needs a stick n puck dont ya think?
TrueBlue4ever Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 That thing is the 'spirited energy' of logos. If I knew how to gif the Wiser's Club slow clap, this post would get it.

blueandgoldguy Posted November 28, 2015 Report Posted November 28, 2015 Research shows Millennials are embarrassed by Canada and Canadian football so let's make the maple leaf less prominent and maybe they will be fooled into thinking this is kinda like American football.
basslicker Posted November 29, 2015 Report Posted November 29, 2015 Terrible. .....just terrible. And the joke just got bigger. This new logo mimics our new commissioner. ........forgettable and difficult to see
MOBomberFan Posted November 30, 2015 Report Posted November 30, 2015 I guess I'm in the minority on this one but I think the logo is an improvement over the old one. As a tiny thumbnail the CFL is prominent, and 'blown up' in detail the maple leaf is clearly still a maple leaf. I'll consider myself lucky to actually like something that's new. Does that mean I'm not old yet? Hooray!
Blueandgold Posted November 30, 2015 Report Posted November 30, 2015 That logo is extremely ugly. The old one(or current I suppose) is vastly superior.
WBBFanWest Posted November 30, 2015 Report Posted November 30, 2015 It would appear that the people that designed our signature jersey have branched out and are now doing logos. FrostyWinnipeg 1
iso_55 Posted November 30, 2015 Report Posted November 30, 2015 On a slightly different note, Orridge giving the Grey Cup to Reilly from Dunigan looked a bit awkward.
