I find current logo, slogan and overall marketing kind a boring. I really like collors of a team, but everything else is just meh, feels like bunch of guys in their 60s are in charge of marketing and they just wait until retire.

This is pure gold :lol:

thanks for sharing

Magic PR guy is prob like:

"The color 'orange' represents the rich history of Central Florida's once thriving orange grove business. The color 'black' represents.....night time, when the oranges would be sleeping."

They should probably hire somebody and write some soccer type of anthem. High energy , easy words to remember, make it sound like group of people sing main chorus.
Pretty much soul of Europien and South American sports are songs and they really meke games feel like out of body experience.
My national team has like 10 songs that every kid and every old person knows from start to finish and every single club has it's own anthem. Basketball, handball, soccer ,hell even waterpolo.

I also find it odd how wrestling still has some epic chants, but basketball ( at least NBA ) does not.
When you watch premiership they come up with some of most awsome crap like " let's pretend, let's pretend that we just scored a goal" and they all cheer :lol:

And my favorite, after an L they sing " you are nothing special, we lose every week " :rofl:

Is it because of our old orange groves? If so, why black as the secondary color? Is it a Halloween court design?

On a separate note, we need a new main logo. Or at least, a new font for 'Orlando Magic' on the logo. Bland then, bland now.

maybe rebranding toImage

Leverkusen supporters used to sing "Wir schlafen nicht auf Betten, wir schlafen nicht auf Stroh, wir schlafen auf Tabletten, das ist bei Bayern so!" what translated means "We don't sleep in beds, we don't sleep on straw, we sleep on pills, that's how we do it at Bayer!" referring to their sponsor Bayer being a pharmaceutical company.


During Stuttgart international games their fans chant in translation "You have to be drunk to watch Stuttgart play international football" ( because that's how terrible they were :lol: )

i was once on a local game and when team scored 6th goal fans yelled "game ,set ,match" :rofl:

they should have put the ball logo replacing with a kinda stylised orange ( the fruit)- ball logo like in the hawks court ,with juice instead of the stars coming out of it.

Simple. It took me 2 secs to imagine that. Give me a job Orlando.

Why can’t we just go back to the old school logo and uniforms and call it the day?

To me, it would've been the better decision. All they had to do is modify it to relate to today's times. That should not be that hard to do. I will say that I do like the pinstripes in one of the designs to have been formatted to the first hardwood floor the Magic played on back in the day.

They released one new jersey for 2019-2020, our Icon jersey. It is the replacement for the blue jersey with new pinstripe we had last year. It has been replaced by the black with blue pinstripe.


In: 2019-2020 Orlando Magic Icon Jersey

Out:

Our association jersey will be the white one. I know we've seen these mobile designs, but they make reference to Orange County twice in the image, I imagine they'll be on one of our Statement, City or Earned unis. I'm wondering now, if they don't do a dark grey/black + orange like we saw on the court, but also a blue/white/orange for our earned edition based off the colors below:

Image

For earned I think they go with the white logo, brighter blue sky background, and orange highlights.
