I think this one may be a you issue, all of those logos but one are easily understandable. The only one that doesn't "make sense" after 5 seconds of google if you're unfamiliar with the basic concepts involved is the Trailblazers, and I've always seen that as just "cool unique logo" that didn't need any explanation beyond being cool and unique lol
Yeah, I don't really know how he could find that logo confusing. I've never seen it before he showed it and I immediately got it. Not the negative space (which is cool), but the windtorn flags and the hockey stick.
I’ll say it again just like the NHL critic logo: Minnesota Wild - IT’S A BEAR HEAD DAMMIT! All bears have round ears and a large muzzle. The brow line and teeth also suggests it’s a bear due to its skull structure. The background shows the green misty forest with a full moon (the ear) and the North Star as the eye. Bear.
I thought it looked cool, but a bit too plain, if they just added some more detail and less white and more silver it woulda been good to use as a primary athletics logo
It's funny you mention The Canucks. I'm Canadian and I've been a hockey fan my whole life, I seriously thought a "Canuck" was a fish because of their logo until I was in high school 😂
Not from Minny, but I always understood their new logo. They're the "Wild" not a specific animal - and the scenery shows the wilds, which Minnesota is known for. It is busy, but it makes sense to me.
For the Carolina Hurricanes flag logo, I think anyone from the southeast would instantly recognize those flags as hurricane warning flags. But maybe I'm biased as my high school was the Golden Hurricanes. As for the Portland trailblazers logo, that actually looks like a hurricane symbol moreso than the Canes main logo.
My dad always had the best response to the whole “man-bear-pig” bit people would bring up about the wild logo. “It’s just supposed to be a generic wild animal. If it was supposed to be a specific animal, we’d be the bears, mountain lions, etc”
The greatest logo in all of history, for any sport, was the brave and courageous Redskin that adorned the Washington team's helmets. It was inspiring, electrifying, that brave and courageous figure, ferocious, and motivating. Until Pepsi extorted the team and pledged to bankrupt them unless they "went woke" and assassinated him, like Aunt Jemima and the Land O Lakes girl.
It might not matter to you, but PepsiCo makes Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Doritos, Captain Crunch, Quaker Oats, Cheetos, Tostitos and Lay's potato chips. Think of Bud Light, would you, the next time you go shopping?
As a Brit who has super minimal knowledge of the US, the Seawolves logo goes hard. I can instantly tell it has native roots, kinda looks just as good as the seahawks’ logo.
I like the Hurricanes double storm flag logo. Especially on the black jerseys. I've never had issues knowing what that is. Maybe FivePoints should move about three hours east so his local newscasts can be inundated with hurricane talk a week before the storms even form...
Next up: sports logo myths, such as… -the little H in the Canadians logo meaning “Habitants” (false) -the Raiders logo being based on actor Randolph Scott (true) -the MLB logo being modeled on Harmon Killebrew (false) -the “I” in the New York Islanders logo pointing to their original home (true) …and many more!
Maybe it's because it's hockey, and I live in Ontario, but I knew what the hurricanes logo was when they introduced it. I actually like it better than the main one. It did take me a while to learn what the expos one was.
For me the Hurricanes flag logo was ugly at first seeing but it gain super potential when used as the uniform for the Playoffs plus the Canucks main logo is an orca
having watched a lot of college football over the years, the moment I saw the logo I knew it was the hurricane flags due to the Tulsa Hurricanes, which makes even less sense as a team/logo than Carolina lol
The Carolina Panthers alternative logo with the hockey stick and flags is those are the flags they fly at the beach when there are hurricane conditions or are expected.
7:00 ...And, this is why, when various nickname options for Minnesota's new NHL franchise were being discussed, I was (inwardly) screaming for Blue Ox. You know, like Paul Bunyan's sidekick? Quintessentially Minnesotan,...and the front office blew it. Oh, well.🤷♂️🤔
This is too much fun. Just a thought: how is it that Michigan's Block M logo is copied by Missouri and Minnesota? Thanks, 5PV. Always a beer time when your vids upload.
How about the most confusing team names in sports? For example, “Bengals” never really made sense because nobody refers to Bengal tigers as “Bengals”. I would love that video too.
holy sh*t, hahaha. after 24 years for the first time I noticed that the Wild logo actually resembles a wild animal head. never saw that. always looked at the landscape and thought: hm, thats interesting for a logo.
Gotta disagree with the hurricane flag argument. Most people in land locked states know what a double red flag is and even the Tulsa Golden hurricanes use that.
The Atlanta Falcons logo always confused me as a kid. I always thought it was a weird angular bird face and didn't see that it was a bird flying until I was in high school lol
I liked UNLV’s old logo-a cartoon face with a big mustache and cowboy hat. That Gauchos logo with the eyes peeking out from under the hat is scary!!! Yikes!!!
That Minnesota Wild logo is also facing the wrong way. Left to right, dammit! Trailblazers: "The five white lines and the five black lines…" Nope. There are either 4 or 6 black lines, depending on whether you count the black outline of the logo as lines. Maybe even 8 if you bring in the bottom horizontal outline line and it's slanted mate on the upper left of the white section. And don't even start with the curved parts of all the lines. Now say all that again but upside down for the red part. Canucks: They're Canucks so they don't count. UNLV: Um, what? It's a splotch.
"If you're a French, and from Quebec..." You mean like the Canadian Province where the Montréal Expos played, and like the language that the people of Montréal speak? 😆 Also, the *b* stands for Baseball; kinda like that word you used when you said the name of the team in English at 1:51
I had never really considered that logos had to have a meaning or connection to the wider world im sure people living in Carolina know about hurricane flags
The Sea Wolf definitely rings of Native American references and I get that one. The Hurricane warning flag... yeah, I get what it's about and appreciate the idea, but it also doesn't quite work. And I also always disliked the Expos logo. The Wild one is fine. Not sure what else you do with the concept, but it sure is busy.
Only one confusing was the Trailblazers, and maybe the Canuks. The Carolina flags meaning are pretty obvious if you aren't the type of guy that requires a helmet for every day life. Same can be said for Minnesota Wild.

As a Florida native I knew what those flags were instantly. I think most people in the southeast know as well.
Anyone who watches college football beyond the Power 5 conferences should know those flags because of Tulsa lol
I came to post a nearly verbatim comment. UM Hurricanes also had those as an alternate helmet design in the early 2000s.
@@Stormynormy42 yeah I dont watch cfb at all so I wouldn't know lol just know what the big teams in Florida look like.
@@TarawaS2000 yeah I've seen those. Funny thing is Florida may get hit by a hurricane this Sunday lol.
@@Stormynormy42I love college football but I didn’t learn those flags from Tulsa, I learned from a real life lore video or something like that lol
Never noticed the negative space is the state of North Carolina, but the flagpole for the Hurricanes is a hockey stick
If you thought the hurricanes alternate logo is confusing wait until you find out our mascot is a cow named stormy. 🤣
Yeah, I don't really know how he could find that logo confusing. I've never seen it before he showed it and I immediately got it. Not the negative space (which is cool), but the windtorn flags and the hockey stick.
@@phreakshowgaming1473 Stormy is a pig, or "ice hog" as the team calls him.
I agree about his viewpoint. Why is there a B in the logo,?

Go Canucks Go…
The Flying V (which is where the Mighty Ducks movie got the idea) would look really cool in blue green and white.
As a UNLV fan, I miss 10 seconds ago when I forgot that logo had ever existed
It looked like the logo of some obscure anti-virus software
@@Pokemonmaster150bwith a name like “PROTEKTOR” or “WEBANDIT”
I thought it looked cool, but a bit too plain, if they just added some more detail and less white and more silver it woulda been good to use as a primary athletics logo
Same, it's doo doo
Bro literally picked all the best logos and said the sucked 😭😭😭😭
Maybe not that unlv logo
keep crying. what are you mad?
As a UNLV alumni and fan. Most of us hate this new logo.
I swear the whole valley hates it, idek what it's trying to be
A hurricane flag for the hurricanes isn’t dumb. I grew up in central Ny and knew what it was
I really like the Alaska logo and I understood it immediately. That might be I’m from the northwest though
I'm from the southwest and even I got it.
Yeah most of these logos aren’t hard to understand he probably just wanted to make a quick video or something lol
That’s my alma mater!
I can already imagine Gucci Mane making use of the word "Burricane" in his next song release! 😂😂😂

I don't know anything about nautical flags, but even I new that flag signal had to be a warning for Storm or Hurricane.
Same
As a kid, I thought that it was ELB too! 😅😂🤣
Well, there’s seven minutes of my life I’ll never get back.
Dude, your output this summer has been wild. Thank you for all the content.
The Hurricanes flag is better than the Vortex logo
One weird logo I’ve seen recently is the Santa Cruz Banana Slugs
Not from Minny, but I always understood their new logo. They're the "Wild" not a specific animal - and the scenery shows the wilds, which Minnesota is known for. It is busy, but it makes sense to me.
The Wild logo is a moon bear forest
For the Carolina Hurricanes flag logo, I think anyone from the southeast would instantly recognize those flags as hurricane warning flags. But maybe I'm biased as my high school was the Golden Hurricanes. As for the Portland trailblazers logo, that actually looks like a hurricane symbol moreso than the Canes main logo.
You right. Me dumb 🤣
1:42 I started watching baseball in 2006, a couple years after the Expos left. When I saw the logo, I asked, "who are the Elk?"
They are a Canadian football team from Edmonton.
So most is these are self ignorance cause you don’t know the region? That’s on you fam.
It does just sound like someone shitting on something they already dont like for some reason
The Hartford Whalers logo was dope.
My dad always had the best response to the whole “man-bear-pig” bit people would bring up about the wild logo. “It’s just supposed to be a generic wild animal. If it was supposed to be a specific animal, we’d be the bears, mountain lions, etc”
I've got no problem with the Wild logo. The Phoenix Coyotes on the other hand...
Wild logo isn’t bad at all and I hate them
I always saw the 'elb' in the Expos logo, too
Tom Myers. A comedian
Tom Meyers is a national treasure.

What I love about the Trailblazers logo, it used to be vertical, and to "update" it they just turned it about 22 degrees.
The Miami Hurricanes used to have that flag logo on their helmets
I had to lock in for this FPV BANGER. But for real, pretty interesting video
I had a UNLV bucket hat back in the 90's had the old logo and mascot on it, cooler than the logo mentioned.
This guy cracks me up.
The current Canucks logo(and the one they introduced in the late 90s)is an orca
Lowkey hurricanes alt logo is 🔥 if you do get it

thank you, five. very cool
Maybe it's because it's hockey, and I live in Ontario, but I knew what the hurricanes logo was when they introduced it. I actually like it better than the main one.
It did take me a while to learn what the expos one was.
There’s no way you’re confused about the wild logo
FivePoints clearly never watched Phineas and Ferb, or he would know that "the red flag with the black box means... storm warning!"
Keep up the good work
Citizens of Las Vegas are still trying to get UNLV charged with the crime against humanity that is that new "logo"
For me the Hurricanes flag logo was ugly at first seeing but it gain super potential when used as the uniform for the Playoffs plus the Canucks main logo is an orca
I always thought it was a Buffalo Sabers alt when they switched over to the “goat head” logo since they were the same color scheme
@@LateNightTableCo the B with the Sabre you mean

I saw EXACTLY the same thing in the Expos for years. I figured it was some French thing that started out with 'Expos'.
3:57 that’s my Alma mater! Our sports suck but our jerseys and logo are awesome!

NFL season needs to start asap cause you reachin bro
The river on the wild logo is also in the shape of the loon, Minnesota’s state bird
I've never been on a boat larger than a rowboat, and even I recognized the hurricane symbol. No Google required.
The Alaska one immediately made sense since I am familiar with the indigenous art style of the region. But that just means I'm a big nerd.
This is too much fun. Just a thought: how is it that Michigan's Block M logo is copied by Missouri and Minnesota?
Thanks, 5PV. Always a beer time when your vids upload.

I’ll defend the hurricanes flag cause I think people in the region get it and it’s an alternate.
I liked UNLV’s old logo-a cartoon face with a big mustache and cowboy hat. That Gauchos logo with the eyes peeking out from under the hat is scary!!! Yikes!!!
I went to unlv for 2 semesters and while I'm aware of the UNR rivalry I've never heard that link to the team name.
Holy shit dude, next time include a warning before showing unfiltered Tom Meyers! You're lucky I had my epi pen nearby!
Oh it took you a while for to figure the wild logo

Well you called it about Wild fans roasting you
Holy shit is that tom meyers
5:13 to me, it looks like a circular track and field lines on a stadium

What do you mean, it makes perfect sense.
"...to anyone who isn't a sailor."
Oh, well, you got me.

I always thought that Trail Blazers logo was the icon meteorologist use for a hurricane.
I’m not gonna lie I never realized the Wild logo was a bear head until about a year ago when my wife pointed it out, it’s even worse now
Living in the Carolinas. The flags are pretty common.
The Hurricanes flag logo makes sense to me, but I'm also from South Louisiana.

Not sure why but I thought the Blazers logo was representative of the converging of the Columbia and Willamette rivers.
The old UNLV logo was so much better.
