Hallelujah. Not a Sixers fan in the least, but it\'s good to see a pro franchise make a bold move like this.

This is terrific. I hated the new branding. Also not a Sixers fan, but lived just outside of Philadelphia for most of my life. The gold/brown puke of the previouswas so heavy and lame.

I concur with the wise gentlemen above me. Hooray for simplicity instead of the \"something-for-everyone\" crapfest that make up most pro sports logos today.

smart. love the teams sporting the retro love.
Andrew RoushJun 24 2009 12:55 PM
Great to see. The retro movement is growing in sports, and if one team needed the switch so direly, it was Philly.
Tom WatsonJun 24 2009 2:34 PM
Absolutely love this move. I\'ve been frustrated with sports logos for quite some time and I love the clear branding of so many of the old retro logos. Great stuff!

Back in the late 90\'s/early 90\'s there was a period where logos on all sports team had to appear like they were blowing up on the player\'s chest (same period as the UNC denim jersey\'s). Only a handful of franchises kept from going that direction, and most that did have yet to recover. It is great to see the 76s go back. I wouldn\'t call the design retro, I would call it timeless (unlike the previous iteration).

Show me that the Denver Nuggets are reverting back to their old logo and I\'ll be super happy
DougJun 30 2009 3:44 PM
I\'m certainly no fan of the previous logo, but I can\'t figure out why this \"new\" logo is getting such positive response. Surely, no one can can argue that it\'s good from a purely design standpoint. Is it just the nostalgia factor -- and is that a good reason to bring back a logo? Just asking...

yea i love the old logos from the 80\'s, they became waaay to embellished through the 90\'s and 2000\'s. The 76ers were one of the worst too, i agree that they looked heavy in those colors, plus red white and blue are good colors for philadelphia.Just need to get me a Clarence Weatherspoon throwback!

im a fan of the philadelphia 76 sixers and i ll say that the new logo looks fab but with the gold and silver one looks more agressive

That\'s gotta sting for the guys who rebranded them...
