It brings to mind such quality shows as Jersey Shore, &c. _________________________ http://dark-clouds.com http://twitter.com/MNDarkClouds https://www.facebook.com/MNDarkClouds #mnstars #mndc #nasl

Really? Holy cow. What, exactly, is it you like about soccer again? That was sarcasm.

You really don't think it's a big deal that the name is confusing? I told my girlfriend what the name of the team was minutes after the announcement and her reaction was, "Wait ... so what is the team called." I had no idea, really, what to tell her. Well, you could tell her that the team is called NSC Minnesota Stars. It is a soccer team run by the NSC so I am not sure you should presuppose that everyone finds it confusing. I do not. Sorry. Originally Posted By: bullsear When you make an announcement like this, you want your new brand to be clear, simple, and relatable. I'm not sure this announcement is any of those things. They should have sent this task to an outside firm that specializes in branding. Again I'll repeat that you might be overreacting, on the negative side. Cheer up a little. We have a team. _________________________ http://nathan3e.blogspot.com/

kj Hall Of Famer Registered: 05/04/05 Posts: 2060 Loc: Minneapolis	Andy: 1. I said I liked "Stars". 2. The Wild logo is freaking brilliant. 3. Taking the Arsenal crest shape, making the top come to a higher point, putting a sloppy gradient in it, then writing some generic fonts over the top of a generic star is not good design. Rook: Yeah, you got me. All: I'm sorry that I'm not all sunshine and puppy dogs. Whoever posted the Central Coast blue/yellow jerseys: Oh, hells yeah. Love the yellow stripes framing on that blue kit. I might add yellow cuffs to the sleeves and maybe some thick-hooped socks. _________________________ We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.
