Outrage

The NFL has announced, among other things, that they are no longer creating new Super Bowl logos every year, and instead have a new "logo system" that will be used for eternity.



Boo. The old logos were great. They showed the personality of the host city and are a neat time capsule of how far we've come in terms of graphic design. I love how they used the pylon in XLI.

But more than just taking away the variety, they've take one step closer to a dystopian future, like that of Minority Report. I mean, everything has to be uniform, and the only color in the logo is brushed silver. Boo. I can't wait until there's only one choice at the concession stands and we're wearing our metallic jumpsuits. What's next? Changing the shape of the classic hot dog? Ha!

And what does Uni Watch have to say?
"I plead indifference." What a bitch.
