I'm starting to think that the Chargers might be a poorly run franchise.

How dense do you have to be to look at the reaction to the logo and think a palette swap would fix the issue? This is just remarkable. Edit: I suppose a lazy first effort deserves an even lazier second.

You know that part in movies/tv where someone views something horrific and puts their hand over their mouth and you think...nobody ever does that for real. I just did that at the color swap. There is no way they looked at the backlash and went "Oh, the colors are the Dodger colors, that's what everyone is on about." I cant imagine someone doing that. It has to be a money thing right? "We spent 2 billion dollars designing this...cant give it up now...flip some colors to those powdered blue!"

If they had led with that logo coloring the reaction would have been softer but it's still a bad, lazy design

I hope they update the logo every day until its eventually an angry animal version of the LA logo with a thunderbolt and flames

you know I didn't think the Chargers would be able to handle something more poorly then the Joey Bosa contract. Well played Chargers. Wait, I mean, not well played.

At the very least they should have done this: To have the blue be so bad shows that it was a rush job, a knee jerk reaction to being mocked.

I can't believe how badly the Chargers played themselves on this thing. -They announce that they are loving over San Diego late on Wednesday -The very next morning release a new logo (Either for marketing purposes or as an actual rebrand, doesn't matter), seemingly unaware that the extreme anger they just caused is going to cause backlash out the rear end. -The logo itself honestly isn't that terrible. It's bland, but if they had just announced it on a much later date it probably wouldn't get the same level of hate and sheer mockery. But because the Chargers are loving idiots, they release a bland new logo directly after they give San Diego the middle finger, when everyone is already mad at them. -They backpedal hardcore, delete the announcement tweet, claim the logo was just a temporary thing to help market the move or whatever, which reeks of "We didn't expect this amount of hate" -They change the logo, but do not address any of the actual criticisms. Nobody was really laughing at the colors. The Chargers are so dumb. I can almost guarantee you the logo was worked on for a while (or possibly shat out by a pro who had to do it in a weekend and didn't give a gently caress). I can also almost guarantee you that the similarity to the Dodgers logo was intentional, as "Los Angeles Brand Synergy". I can straight up see a Chargers executive pitching the new logo with that exact phrase.

Dodgers hats are the most common piece of clothing in LA, they just wanted a piece of that familiarity.

Yeah I once did a logo design for a railroad company in Pennsylvania, I made about 8 really neat logos, in the end he just said "nah copy the Steelers logo to show we ship steel, just don't get me in legal trouble"

Any designer will probably tell you that they have a lot less control over the design than most people believe. You basically come up with a ton of ideas and pitch it to the client at intervals and the client picks what they want and ask or demand certain changes until finally it's done and the designer is rarely happy with the result. Clients aren't necessarily all bad people, they do have a brand to worry about and to be honest a lot of ideas the artist gets are probably crap that wouldn't work so reigning the designer in can be a good thing, but it also makes them very averse to risk and innovation and results in stuff like bland corporate poo poo like the logo we got and a general cluelessness. a neat cape posted:Can I quit this team I genuinely don't think anyone can blame you or judge you if you do
