This kind of fits in with the resume discussion. I am 100% judging the responses to my car posting on their grammar.

While I agree with your general idea, I think you're going to end up weeding out too many dumb people that might overpay for the car.

Group project report edited, have a group meeting at 3 to get everything finalized and finish the presentation. Time to get back to work on the 15 pager. Hopefully I can get enough done to have time to watch the game tonight.

Oh who am I kidding. I'll watch it no matter what...

Your always entitled to your opinion :yes: just seems like you've been...cranky... lol I have no problem with using alt logos and such but I-State needs to be the primary for the majority of the games. If it were my call I would say have roughly 2 games a year with something all together "different" otherwise just some options to mix in. (Pants, Helmets, Jerseys, etc..)

I mean, I guess technically it's my opinion, but it's widely just bad business. Imagine if Nike used a secondary logo that nobody that doesn't work for Nike knows about and put it on all of the football jersies it produces. That would be an absolute disaster. Heads would roll. I get that ISU fans want to see some difference because it would look cool, but marketing your brand is about growing your base, and the way to do that is consistently have an image current non-fans can associate you with. They've created that with the I State and it would be detrimental to the brand to go away from what's working just to appease some people that think a helmet would look cooler with a different logo than our primary one that everyone knows.

Maybe I am cranky? I don't know. I think it was 00 that talked about how coaching changes have people dusting off their old passwords and logging in for the first time in years so they can ***** come on and scream from the rooftops about how they hate the hire, and that does kind of wear on me wading through.

I prefer walking cy and leaning cy, but in agree with pants that the marketing needs to stay consistent.

When I watched the Baylor/oregon game I had a hard time telling which was which. Partly because their colors are similar, and mostly because they change their uniforms as often as some people change their undies.

I State isn't my favorite logo. I love leaning Cy. I also actually really like twirly bird Cy once they removed the blue and took the cheesy font ISU out of it. But IState is simple and it works.
