What if the NFL logos were Hipsters?

Last edited Sun Jan 19, 2014, 03:05 AM - Edit history (1)

Time to take the excellent logos that designers slaved over and tear them a new one. Time to take those sweet perfect icons of million dollar teams and contort them for the sake of a bad joke. Time to destroy what we love. It’s time to redesign the logos once again.

I teased twitter yesterday with an image of the Patriots logo as a Hipster. Well, that’s my goal this time. To take the logos and bring them back underground, before they were cool. I live in Portland, the Hipster Mecca (although Colorado/Washington legalizing weed has changed that) and I could use an outlet to stick it to the weirdos I deal with day in and day out. The logos are organized by division, in case one of them stumps you.

The Early Game @ 3:00 Eastern:

[div style="width:20%;"] Boston? Feh. I’m from Foxboro. You’ve probably never been there, it’s way out of the way in the middle of the woods. Only the right people get invited.

This ink on my neck represents my love of the obscure indie band Whiskey Anus. They broke up after one song but they will live forever.

The Late Game @ 6:30 Eastern:


[div style="width:20%;"] I only watch Organic football. Yeah, it’s more expensive, but it’s so much better for you. I can’t put that junk football in my body, do you even know what you’re doing to yourself with that? Gross.

I spend so much time in my local coffee shop they asked me to pay rent.

I've edited the OP to make the corrections.

I actually wondered which team the cheesehead bike was supposed to represent since I didn't notice the bicycle seat initially. After I saw that it was for the Packers it gave me a good laugh. The most humorous part though is that the hipster logo is one that is entirely plausible and I wouldn't be surprised to see a Packer fan riding one of those bikes around the stadium at the tailgate parties.
