Both the new Strikers and NASL logos are sweet AND better than most MLS logos. Thankfully Traffic did not opt for the photoshop option they chose with the not so dearly departed Miami FC.
Now if we could just get the rest of the NASL to quit using photoshup, maybe the league would satisfy those of us hungry for MLS. Edmonton has a nice logo, but the rest of the NASL logos are cheezy and so minor league looking.
Agreed, this time it looks like Traffic has done things right. The logos and websites look incredible.
If only we had a big name player... they said they had 4 more players ready to sign. Hmmmm.
I really think that Eduardo Coudet is a rather good player that had a promising career and I am sure he will still be a good asset for Strikers
