Today, the 76ers announced that they’ll be going back to the Old School Julius Ervin-era logo. The move is partly to rekindle the glory days of Dr. J. and Wilt Chamberlain. It’s also partly because pale blue brings out Eddie Jordan eyes. In honor of the changeover, here are Six Teams That Should Bring Back Their Old Logos:

Denver Nuggets

My personal favorite. It wasn’t just a rainbow, it was a veritable rainbow assault on your senses. This should have never been cast aside.

Atlanta Hawks

Suggested by Will Brinson (Fanhouse, Brahsome), and universally agreed upon. The logo worn by ‘Nique. The red could not be more ketchup. The yellow could not be more mustard.

Minnesota Timberwolves

You guys got it right the first time when you put White Fang on your shirts.

New England Patriots

Some crack logo genius managed to design the angriest looking dude short of the Wake Forest Demon Deacon. I hate when people mess with their success.

Carolina Hurricanes

Also, move back to Hartford and change the team name back to The Whalers. Actually, I’d prefer if you went with Hartford, The Whale.

Milwaukee Brewers

Last but not least, the old school yellow and blue brew-crew glove. It’s sexual and violent.

Throw some other suggestions in the comments!

After The Wheedle debacle of 2008, I didn’t think we would deal with another mascot fiasco so soon, and yet…

William & Mary College, of Williamsburg, VA, known as the Harvard of regional historical societies, has been asked to change their mascot – once the Indians, and for the time being the Tribe. The W&M populus is taking the process seriously – with over 400 suggestions. At the same time, you could argue they are not at all taking this seriously, with nomination like Asparagus being counted and apparently, considered?

The College of William & Mary in Virginia is looking for a mascot and ideas have ranged from a feathered horse to an asparagus stalk…The asparagus stalk supporter notes that if served with cheese, the vegetable represents the school colors. (William & Mary mascot ideas include an asparagus)

Asparagus retains a certain undeniable cachet. You grill up a nice medium rare London broil, serve it with aparagus, maybe some coriander. Wash it all down with some brown beer. I get it. However, plant life – diuretic properties or not- should never be a mascot.

Even after seeing this – asparagus beef bacon wraps w/ some sort of mushroom cheesewiz glaze- my feelings on that are unwavering. I don’t even think herbivores should be considered.

The W&M president will make the final call.
