August 2, 200520 yr Hey Guys, I made a website dedicated to bringing back one of the best logo's in all of sports. The Milwaukee Brewers Glove and Ball Logo. This is definatly one of the most creative logo's ever. If you look close at this logo you will notice the Glove and Ball form the "m" & "b" of the millwaukee brewers. Please take a minute to sign my petition and help bring back one of the best logo's in sports. Thanks! www.brewcrew.biz.ly Baseball is built on tradition and we need to bring some of baseball's tradition back. On the players' caps. "I'm with you," said Brewers manager Ned Yost, who proudly wore the hat as a member of Harvey's Wallbangers. "I like the logo. It wouldn't bother me if they changed back to it. I'm like everybody else. I'd love the hats." www.brewcrew.biz.ly
August 2, 200520 yr I stumbled upon that site a few months back laughed then signed the petition that logo is awesome.
August 2, 200520 yr Given 1) The trend towards retro and 2) The sheer number of times I see that logo everytime I visit Miller Park I don't think it needs to be "saved" at all. Its as alive and well as any other throwback logo, and I think fans of other teams recognize its awesomeness.
August 2, 200520 yr It's like the old "SOX" logo from the 80s. It will never really go away completely.

August 2, 200520 yr I always believed that was a cleverly designed logo. I think the original Brewers' logo will be around for many years to come.

August 2, 200520 yr QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Aug 2, 2005 -> 12:20 AM) i never noticed the M and the B awesome LOL! Neither did I. I like that one and the old Mariners' logo as well.
August 2, 200520 yr It's kinda like the big 10 logo. It's hard to see the 11, but when you do, it's the first thing you see from then on.
August 2, 200520 yr I never knew the M and B thing. It reminds me how when I was a kid, I always thought that old Expos logo spelled "elb" in lower case. It was only many years later that I became aware their logo was actually the letter 'M' and suddenly alot of things made sense.

Similar, though different. In the Brewers logo, the same foreground item represents different things. The Big 10 logo, however, uses the background or "negative space". In psychology, I think it is called "figure/ground ambiguity". It is like the Chicago "C" on my avatar. If you look closely at the negative space, you will see a sock.

August 2, 200520 yr When I was a kid, I swear 95% of the time I went to a game it was against the Brewers. I have no fond memories of that logo, Sixto Lezcano, Sal Bando, or any other thing associated with the late 70's/early 80's Brewers. It does beat the new logo though. I'll sign.
August 2, 200520 yr QUOTE(soxhawks @ Aug 2, 2005 -> 06:21 PM) i love this logo the only non sox hat i have ever bought is this one I have a Brewers cap with that logo too. I loved that logo, and the colors the Brewers had back then, plus the fact that their team name is about beer. I really never have a good chance to wear the hat though. Oh well, it's still awesome, I'll sign.
