    the team and logo designers did their homework ... the fugio cent wouldn't have been as well received.

    Does anyone know what design company has been responsible for the recent MLS logos? I would assume they're all coming from the same place, but I could be wrong.

    :D

    Perfect. The stars, the 'Union of the snake' and the colors. Could not have imagined it better.

    It's got the new, clean, modern look, while still giving an old school vibe with the stars and sparse decoration.

    Bravo.

    I love it. Easily one of the best in MLS. I like the light blue showing up in the center, the stars are quality, cool snake (Zolo the snake, new mascot for the kiddies.. but how do you make a walking snake costume?). Simple, not too busy...just right. I'm very, very pleased.

    Does this mean Arlen Spector won't be supporting the team?

    I think they've done good.

    I like the name and I think the crest and colors are very nice. And I have no qualms with the snake.

    The biggest complaint I could muster for the crest is that I would have liked to have seen a keystone instead of a "shield" shape (which is somewhat overused in MLS). But that's such a minor issue, that it basically reflects how awesome the crest is.

    In my humble opinion, I think it is one of the classiest and clever crests, not only in MLS but soccer. It will look even better on a kit and scarf. I like the colors as well. : )

    I'm using this as my current wallpaper if anyone wants it. Unfortunately, I don't have a very high quality look at the snake, so this was the best I could do for my minimalist look. Also, I'm not big on white hats. Does anyone know of one of those mall kiosks that print custom hats around here? I'm hoping to get a hat with just the snake in light blue.

    Are you guys going to nickname your pitch "The Snake Pit"?

    Your signature is an embarassment. And right now, so is your team.


    Philly fans, well done. Your team name and crest is classy and elegant. This will stand the test of time. Can't wait to meet you guys on the pitch next year :)

    Bryan doesn't do interviews.



    Oh, wait. Of course he does. :D

    It maybe hard to schedule in, but he'll find time for you. Bryan helped me out with some offseason stuff for the Screaming Eagles way back before there was a team.


    The crest is good. It's not overdone, but there's some good symbolism. And it's great that they used the general color scheme that most of us have been hoping for.

    Snake suffocate the Bulls and put an end to their season! Join or Die! Some one has to come up with a join or die chant...i'm working on it...now we need to sign the MESSIah! Philly Union til we all die! the more i think about the name Union the more i love it. Union Filadelfia sounds classy in spanish too! Can't wait to go back to Argentina and tell them what the best soccer club in America (mexico too) is all about! I really hope we partner up with an Argentine or Brazilian team. That would be the best way for us to get skilled players!

    Colorado and Kansas City had circular logos to begin with.

    Well now that I look again, the Wiz logo was not a perfect circle:

    [​IMG]

    LA's had a strong circular element

    Nike stole that from grassroots supporters to begin with, so turnabout is fair play.

    I did not get an image but they were just plain white hats with the logo in the front.

    Perhaps it was meant to be "Invictus" Unconquerable

    Still, it is a strange motto... Unconquerable or Experts?

    Surely, it should read Invictus et Peritus
