Gigi Galli posted:I don't think it's that terrible? I mean it's definitely not good but is it really worse than this? They're both bad, and the "crest" logo is trendy enough that it'll look exactly as dated as this one looks now in 10 years time.

I'm blatantly melting down over the crest outlines here, but in the logos that do have outlines, there's often no consistency in the color of the outline. Sometimes it matches the top half, sometimes the bottom half. Like, it's admittedly nitpicking, but it's also part of why this looks like such an unprofessional, in-house job.

And the explanation: WORDS: MLS stands for Major League Soccer. SLASH: The slash refers to soccer’s speed and energy. The slash begins outside the perimeter and drives upward at a 45-degree angle to illustrate both the non-stop nature of our game and the rising trajectory of our league. It bisects the crest to create a “first half” and “second half.” STARS: The three stars represent the pillars of our brand: For Club, For Country, For Community. PERIMETER: The perimeter represents the lines that mark off the field of play. FIRST HALF AND SECOND HALF: The first half contains MLS and the three stars. The second half is an open white space that brings you in and out of the MLS world.
