I'm with you on this. It looks awful and unprofessional as hell. It just comes off as cheap.
And they consulted with three different firms to get that look :laugh:

I like this logo (just like launches/relaunches of anything) because of the resulting reactions it elicits.

In that regard, I feel like the new logo has been orbiting the physical manifestation of my happiness since it came out last night.

As a part of a whole, I like the new logo and the chromatic diversity it gives, it will look nice on each team's jersey. The DC united one is beautiful! :swoon:

As the league logo, it looks horrible. They should have filled that white space with a traditional football, a field or something.
