If i spent enough time... I could find logos that are very similiar to the new BG one... why blend in, when you can be sooo much different...

love the old school look... will have to preserve my old school BG stuff... maybe vacumn seal it!

I support FieldTurf. Every field I ever been on or walked on with this stuff looks and feels great. Injuries are neither a plus or minus based on research. Total field flexibility with other uses/teams available. Lower maintenance costs at a time of tight budgets. Players nearly UNIVERSALLY prefer FieldTurf and I want the best players at BG.

I am sure all this is posted above in the zillions of posts along with the posts bemoaning the rusting of our lawn mowers. Spart43 has it right when he basically says "get behind the Field; get behind the team". What kind of Falcon fan would truly jump ship based on this decision? Yes, grass is good and traditional. When you have to redo the entire stadium base and drainage to even consider having grass, I say hello FieldTurf.

Let's get behind this team. I like the leadership and decision making I am seeing in the dept. I am sure I don't or will not agree with all the decisions either. Let's move forward.

Go Falcons!

"In MY DAY, we didn't have any of this fancy-schamancy "FieldTurf!" We didn't even have nice cushy grass to play on! All we had was dirt, gravel, and broken glass! AND WE LIKED IT! WE LOVED IT! We'd go in for a sack on the quarterback, and we'd fall on shards of broken glass that would slice deep into our shins and knee caps, and we'd cry, "oh what did I do!" and we LIKED IT! WE LOVED IT! We'd pull the shards out and go in again!"

I'm with you, redskins4ever!! :supz:
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

Our logo is more like a corporate logo than a cartoon, IMHO. It isn't a 3D design. It doesn't look like something from Marvel.

Thank you for this. My thoughts, exactly.

Our retail logo isn't really anything like those things above.

What is this retail logo you all speak of.....Never heard of such a thing....



Oh wait....that is all that is talked about anymore!!! I personally hate the thing, but if they make it the new symbol of our great University than so be it....

After all it is better than the ugly A$$ Jayhawk logo they have here at KU....
I love my birds! Go Falcons, Go Jayhawks!!!

You're either blind or an idiot. Our logo looks nothing like the ones shown above.

You're crazy Flip! Don't you see good??? Our logo looks exactly like any one of these:

Image

This is a BIRD! Just like a falcon!

Image

He can't see, just like our logo has a triangle instead of an real eye!

Image

He's an ANIMAL for Christ's sake! I'm surprised we haven't been sued for copyright infringement!

Image

He's brown!!!

Image

He's ORANGE!!!

Image

LOOK AT HIS NOSE! It's BEAK-LIKE! JUST like out logo!
