Original Ravens logo (winged shield) was cleared for use again

38 posts in this topic

I definitely would not want to see them on our helmets again.  I love our Raven profile logo that we use now.  I also like the Ravens shield that we have on the sleeves, but maybe one of them could be replaced with the Winged B?

From the recent article I read, the logo is not cleared to start using again.  The NFL is allowed to show old videos or pictures showing the logo, but not to actually start producing things with the logo.  I always wondered why the owner of the logo didn't sell his own products with the logo, such as t-shirts, sweatshirts, etc. or that no one was very interested in buying the design from him.  Surely there are plenty of fans interested in throwback merchandise.

they are ugly.

 not as bad as those ridiculous pinstripes of the Steelers - they are the absolute worst, I thought they were joking when I saw them.

Then I remembered the old Three Stooges football bit. They wore stripes.

That was from the 30's. So are the Steelers, ugh.

Odd  the logo didn't bother me then but wow its ugly now. I like the  black alternate and current logo. and the day 300 pound men wear bikini's that's the day I start watching golf.
