NNL 100th Anniversary 1920-2020 Rebrand
NNL 100th Anniversary 1920-2020 Rebrand For the anniversary of this great league "The Game" asked for my help in creating more modern era logos and uniforms for some of the great Negro League teams of the past... The list in not written in stone but we were thinking of honoring 16 great teams in this thread... Here is the list as it stands right now... 1. KC Monarchs 2. Baltimore Black Sox or Elite Giants 3. Chicago American Giants 4. Cleveland Buckeyes 5. Cuban Stars 6. NY Black Yankees 7. Homestead Grays 8. Brooklyn Royal Giants 9. Detroit Stars 10. Indianapolis ABC's 11. St. Louis Stars 12. Pittsburgh Keystones or Crawfords 13. Hilldale Giants 14. Philadelphia Stars 15. Washington Potomacs or Black Senators Some others up for consideration are: Indianapolis Clowns Birmingham Black Barons Newark Eagles Memphis Red Sox Atlanta Black Crackers New Orleans Crescent Stars Bacharach Giants House of David San Francisco Sea Lions Note: Some of the logo designs are not my creation but taken from other logo designs... They are as follows: Black socks artwork, CAG, Hilldale HG, ABC, Crawfords PC, Sea Lions SF... Link to my Google Drive for all of these teams... https://drive.google.com/open?id=19h...W1pggv4evcfw16 Last edited by txranger; 02-28-2020 at 12:06 PM. |

Once some of the jerseys are done I will start on the creation of the league. I plan on cloning all the greats including Toni Stone, Connie Morgan & Mamie Johnson. I have to figure out some aspects of the league. In most of my MLB leagues straight cloning lessens the greatness of career NeL players. Reduced roster size, Reserve Rosters 1950's or 1960's era financials & modifiers. i will create Fg for some of the classic owners like Effa Manley, Rube Foster and others. I will ask input of some features. I'll create a quickstart of it.

The American Giants set is great, but the Monarchs?
Come on, this is ridiculous, this is awesome
