Logos on NBA Unis.......

[PtldPlatypus]

Blazers probably end with something lame and regional

I wouldn't mind a little Safeway logo on a Blazer jersey. That could conceivably integrate nicely.

ya Moda came out of nowhere for arena name. Guessing this will be similar.

There's that positive attitude we've all grown to love.

Why is regional lame? I'd prefer a company with somewhat local headquarters on the Trail Blazers uni. It will be a national/global brand. There's no reason for a company that only serves the NW to spend that amount of $$ on the jersey patch. The impact of it is global.

Local is fine. Sort of small time though that the arena name is not national

Very true. But I think the uni logo has much more of a global reach/impact than the name on an arena. There are several arenas/stadiums that have only local names/sponsors.
Chesapeake Energy Arena
Smoothie King Center
Talking Stick Resort Arena
Moda Center

I almost don't care who the sponsor is, I just want the one with the best logo is all. Columbia isn't that bad actually. In a weird way it's our pinwheel with all the limbs chopped off....... I think we could do a lot worse than this.

I always thought it looked a little too much like a swastika.

Les Schwab!! Izzy's Pizza! Voodoo Donuts! Jacks Barber Shop!!! Red White and Blue Barber Pole Logo!

Ewww. F Safeway...

 

[dviss1]

Les Schwab

IMO this is the one. They do more for basketball than probably any corporation in OR (save Nike/Adidas).

 

[PtldPlatypus]

I know you hate them; I was actually thinking about that when I posted that. I just think their red S would mesh nicely with team colors.

And in all reality, do you think people would be more likely to shop there if they advertised on the Blazers' unis? I don't. So really, they'd be wasting money. So...yeah--F Safeway, waste your marketing dollars on the Blazers!

Seems like the obvious choice, but do they have a logo that would look cool on a jersey?

 

[BigGameDamian]

So as many of you may know, or not, but adidas' logo was not on the game uniforms at all. You'd see it on warmups, shooting shirts and practice gear, but never on the actual game worn unis.

Just had a some beers with a few of my friends and word from a man that would know and who has seen the unis is that you WILL see the swoosh on the new ones. Very interesting.

The real question is how do you Ilani?

I think the question remains. Might look decent on a Rockets jersey...I don't think I'd like it on a Blazers jersey.

Why did my man say fuck Safeway and my other man say, "Ya, I know you hate Safeway."? Did dviss get mugged by Klansman in the produce section at a Safeway?

You've seen their prices for produce, then?

Safeway, in my experience, has generally served the lower-class areas. They also have significantly higher prices. Basically, they price gouge those who can least afford it - much like that gas station on MLK & Fremont. Also, they rarely staff enough people so check out takes forever. I agree with the "F Safeway" sentiment - they're the worst.

Interesting...... never looked at it like that.

Hmm...the guys in the meat department do wear all white....

It would be small, rectangular, and only have that bit of gold (which I think should replace the silver in our jerseys anyway. Fucking hate that silver.)

How about a local vegan restaurant?

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

Can't be Columbia Sportswear because they are a competitor with Nike.
Wont be Les Schwab because they arent a national/global company. They only have stores in the NW.

How is Columbia a NIKE competitor? Clothes? I guess they would be huh?

What kind of nerdy logo does Intel have? I'm sure you guys all know.
