Went from one of the best in soccer to perhaps the worst.




RSL and Vancouver merged to open an expansion slot? *

But my god, that is just awful. On top of that, someone can STILL easily mistake this for a fire department symbol. Not as easily as the former, but still. There is no soccer identity here.

I am in awe at the amount of money that goes into these changes and how poor the committee-based workshop-driven results can be.


I don't get why they needed to change. *

The ongoing reasoning

Outside of just a rebranding in general, is that their players and employees are continually mistaken for being Chicago FD members.


They should be so lucky

It’s better than being correctly identified as a shitty organization / team


also, a search for "Chicago Fire" on google

yields results that link to some television show.

This rebrand does not solve that problem.


Yeah, but tbf they did have it first *

they might have had more hits and better search rankings!

They ceded the high ground with a decade of suck.


That they did *

They could not have shown this to a single Fire fan

The colors make no sense - especially if they wanted a "Chicago" rebrand.

It looks like the Ice King's crown from the Adventure Time cartoon or the Whitecaps East logo.

It is so bad that they are deleting negative comments on their facebook page and they rarely do that (I can attest to this as I rarely post a positive comment there and all of my old posts remain).

Tragic. They still have Nelson, a ton of allocation money, no players, and a shit logo with colors that make old Fire gear obsolete. Not a good start for Joe.


Or to the single Fire fan *

There's a certain gang in Chicago that uses a logo very similar
