No challenge to the copyrights of these logos is intended by their inclusion here. Posted 2014 May 31 At first glance, this seems like a perfectly normal logo. The team is called the Broncos, and the logo has a horse above the name of the team and part of a baseball below it. Totally unremarkable. Nothing special at all. Then you look at it closer and you realize that all is not well here. The first hint is the mane, although you don't realize it at first. Sure, the hair is green, a color not normally seen on horses' hair or the hair of any other animal outside a Japanese cartoon. But hey, artistic license and team colors and all that, right? Sure...until you get a look at those eyes. I haven't exactly spent my life in the presence of horses, but I've seen enough of them live and in pictures to know that their eyes are not white and pupil-less. Quite the opposite: the pupil is about all you can see, and you certainly can't see any white at all. Okay, so maybe the horse just has really bad cataracts. Or maybe — and at this point I'm just floating an idea here — maybe it's proof that this horse is possessed by a demon from hell, or maybe it is a demon from hell, cleverly disguised as a horse but with the giveaway detail that the eyes are glowing white. I don't have a good explanation for why a demon's eyes would glow white, but I'm not a theologian. I'm sure if you read the book of Revelation closely enough you'd find an explanation, probably somewhere near the bit explaining the seven angels with seven trumpets foretelling of seven plagues that will strike seven wives with seven cats and seven kittens on their way to St. Ives. But so far that's just a theory. We haven't ruled out mundane explanations yet, right? Now look at the baseball below the wordmark in the logo. Notice anything unusual there? Aren't baseballs spherical? This one clearly is not. It looks like Superman took a baseball and squeezed it really hard, leaving this misshapen lump. Keep in mind: there is no angle from which you can view a sphere and it not look like a perfect circle from your perspective. None. And this is a seriously misshapen ball. And Superman didn't do this, because Superman isn't real. We don't know that the bronco/demon did it, and if it did we don't know why, but evidence is beginning to mount here that this is is indeed a demon who, for reasons we dare not even speculate, is working on a plan that somewhy requires this baseball to be deformed in the manner we see. I mean, at the very least we can eliminate cataracts as an explanation for the way this logo looks, right? Well, unless the cataracts belong to the artist. That still explains it.
Final Score: 32 points.
