1) Before we start, let me acknowledge that the idea for this column is totally stolen from IdahoTimber, who published a fanpost on February 24th called “An Unsolicited Review of MLS Logos.” When I read his column, I was like, Dammit, I, too, have opinions about team crests. Why didn’t I write this before IdahoTimber did? Damn him! Or her! Whichever!
So here I am, giving you my take on their excellent idea. I’ll break it down report card style, with A’s, B’s, C’s, D’s, and F’s. And, to be clear, these grades are not about the team itself, just its crest.
