It's The Worst Steelers Tattoo In The World!
Found at Reddit this morning, from the Facebook page of a guy in Central Pennsylvania who fancies himself a tattoo artist. (Brian's other work is just as inspiring.)...

Backward Nike Swooshes On NFL Uniforms: Wrong Or Stupid?
The preseason Jets-Bengals game was on in the bar Friday night, and while the endless five-yard outs thrown by the dynamic Jets offense made it feel as if we could have been watching anytime, there was one new glaring difference: the Nike logos on the uniform sleeves. They jumped out all the more be...

Counterpoint: Ads On Jerseys Are Bush-League Crap, And If You Think They're OK, You're A Stooge
Oh, gee, the NBA wants to build on its incredible globe-spanning success and goodwill by putting ads on its uniforms, because...that's how they do it in the WNBA. And MLS. And various other unpopular and/or foreign sports leagues, and uh NASCAR, which, really? NASCAR was a long-form automobile comme...

You'll Never Guess How Police Identified This Shooting Suspect With A Yankees Logo Tattooed On His Forehead
An argument escalated into a man getting shot in Mesa, Ariz., and while the victim told police he didn't know his attacker, he did notice a Yankees logo tattooed between the man's eyebrows. It wasn't super hard to track him down from that. [Phoenix New Times, h/t ClueHeywood]...

This Is Probably The New Brooklyn Nets Logo
Yesterday, the Nets teased the team's new logo and colors for their Brooklyn move: black, and something shield-shaped. Today, thanks to something less than total secrecy, we get a first look at a very plausible candidate for the logo....

Darren Rovell Thinks This Jets Logo With A Crucified Jesus Christ Is Worth Your Attention
There is absolutely no reason why the Jets would need to redo their logo just because Tim Tebow, who happens to be extremely religious, is about to bring his own unique brand of "football" to the New York/New Jersey metropolitan area. Therefore, we're confused why CNBC's Darren Rovell would feel com...

Finally, Peyton Manning's Face In Every NFL Logo
What happens when the famous Manningface falls into the hands of a graphic designer? Every single NFL team logo (plus some alternates) gets a makeover to incorporate Peyton Manning's rectangular head. It started at Something Awful, but the guy who created them has assembled them all in one place for...

The Carolina Panthers Logo Gets An Update
The new logo, the first since the team's expansion year, is "modernized" to "provide a more aggressive, contemporary look" and make it more "three-dimensional." The "subtle updates" reflect a "tougher, more defined panther." Lots of corporate buzzwords needed just to say they got rid of the eyebrows...

Please Don't Step On The Enormous Logo In The Rangers' Locker Room, Unless They Throw A Rug On Top
Madison Square Garden is the oldest arena in the NHL, and was best described as a serviceable dump. The kind of place that trafficked more in history than inherent charm. But that was before the beginning of a three-year renovation that will add the kinds of modern amenities that nobody was clamorin...

The Cincinnati Bearcats Think The Cincinnati Bearcats Logo Is Worthy Of Being Protected By Velvet Rope
Welcome to Cincy's most exclusive night club....

It's Time To Watch Tiger Woods's Japanese Sports Rub Back Creme Commercial

Cubs Have Upside Down Logo At Wrigley, Possibly As Some Sort Of Distress Signal
This oopsie is apparently located on the wall of a tunnel near the Cubs clubhouse. Has it been like this for the last 95 years and no one's noticed? Possibly. ...

Washington Wizards Have Brand New Jerseys, Hopefully A Brand New Game
The Washington Wizards unveiled their Bullets- and nation-inspired new logos and uniforms in D.C. today. They're red, white, and blue, because of America, which team president Ernie Grunfeld says "our players love... It's appropriate that the Wizards, Mystics and Capitals now share their colors and ...

Take A Look At Tim Lincecum's Brand New Jordanesque Logo
Tim Lincecum will be on the mound (and on the Magazine cover) as the Giants open their season this evening with an 8 p.m. EST game against the Dodgers. There's always been something about Lincecum that suggests an aversion to selling-out or going for products (it's the long hair; I'm stereotyping) s...

The Big Ten's New Logo Really Isn't That Bad
Co.Design talks to Michael Bierut, the guy responsible for the Big Ten's redesign, who finds himself assailed by the sort of conference alums who'd hate any logo that wasn't Bo Schembechler and Woody Hayes humping each other in a cornfield. [Co.Design]...

The Big Ten Makes Some Changes. Stupid, Stupid Changes.
Here's the new Big Ten logo. And the division will now be called "Leaders" and "Legends." And they have about 20 trophies, each with 6 names. We joke, and criticize, and they continue to print their own money. [via Midwest Sports Fans]...

It's A Whole New NFL (Or At Least A New Art Department)
I hope you like change, because the NFL sure does. The Lamar Hunt and George Halas trophies have been redesigned — some would say emasculated — but that's far from the only new look we find scary and different....

We're Sorry Your Blog Won't Get Mentioned On SportsCenter Anymore
In case you hadn't noticed, ESPN has ended their morning "Blog Buzz" feature, which was their way of sweet talking the three-dimensional circle of sports blogs. They stopped broadcasting it....let's see...a little over two weeks ago. That's weird, right?...

Great. We Still Don't Know If This Logo Is Racist Or Not.
A federal appeals court just sank a coup de grace through a 17-year-old lawsuit claiming the Redskins logo is offensive. Naturally, the judges left unanswered the question of whether the logo is, in fact, offensive....
