The Houston Oilers also became the Tennessee Oilers for a season or two before they changed their name to the Titans.Or when the Lakers moved from Minneapolis to Los Angeles
Or when the Dodgers moved from Brooklyn to Los Angeles.....
Those are the 2 that come to mind first.
Is it possible that this logo is a leftover from some secondary logo work (like for hats, etc.) the team had done when they moved to Brooklyn? And the NY on the stick was more prominent at that time?
I know I'm reaching, but this thing is just so odd....
The only think dumber was when the NBA's New Orleans Jazz moved to Utah yet kept the Jazz name.
Yes that was the other one. But they had the good sense not to hang on to “.Oilers”The Houston Oilers also became the Tennessee Oilers for a season or two before they changed their name to the Titans.
You're right about that. It looks all bad.At first glance, I was very unimpressed. Looks very bush league.
It does remind me of the Kamloops Blazers though.
On the jersey it doesn't look half bad.
Nah, Island Tigers!Islander name for a team not on an Island is dumb! They should keep the more sensible and realistic name of “Sound Tigers.”
You're right about that. It looks all bad.
And the logo in the stick looks like more of an advert for the MTA than the NYI.
