OT A quick US Soccer Poll
Which do you want your US National Team wearing on the jersey?

I was going to but when I found that graphic, I made the decision to just roll with it. 04-cheers

I actually know a few people at the US Soccer Federation's ad agency (based in Little Rock and heavily stocked with AState alums) so I give them regular grief about it. They won't comment but I get the sense that they aren't that fond of the current shield either.

I think Nike owns the logo with the Gadsen flag snake or I would have thrown that in as well.

I got behind a car the other day that had a Gadsen Flag sticker and a soccer sticker. Wanted to ask if they were Tea Party supporter AND a soccer fan or just a soccer fan.

Centennial crest by a mile, bought a current home kit, the crest is the only thing I'd change.

RE: OT A quick US Soccer Poll
it would be my guess that they changed to the new logo to make it more identifying that it is a US Soccer logo. If someone who wasn't a fan saw the old one, they would probably have no idea. If they saw the newer one, they would probably figure it out. It was more about brand recognition. I don't know this for sure, but I'd say that is a large part of it.

I would like the 'garbage-ugly' crest better if it used navy blue instead of the lighter shade. I just don't like the lighter blues.

Why do they need a crest? What's wrong with the US flag?

Crests are essentially logos, every team has one. The crest goes on the jersey, just the same as all of our logos appear on our helmets.

Same reason you don't put the official seal of the university on your helmet. It's a logo for the team.
