Saved quite a bit on the graphics bill, didn't they?

Funny Clowns?

Fumigating Crabs?

Fundamentalist Caterers?



Sorry, I don't sports.

Houston Oilers logo

Using an oil well...That seems to be common on team names related to the oil industry. 

[Hoss]

Hmm..seem to see an oil derrick in there also.

But that old Tulsa Roughnecks logo doesn't look like the Barons logo at all, does it?

The owner pretty much admitted they were using the Thunder colors.  It's kind of difficult to not see the resemblance in one of the most basic oil structures if you're using it as a logo.

Your ulterior motive is showing.

Myself, I don't care either way.  I've been to an Athletics game and I'll likely go to a Roughnecks game also.

rufnex needs a reason to hate the other soccer team.

[TulsaRufnex]

No, Michael.

Three words for you:  
Conflict.  Of.  Interest.

That is all.

Question:  Who are these guys?

[DowntownDan]

When are the Athletics moving to the NASL?  I like games at the old park.  The field can be bigger because it doesn't have to accommodate baseball.  But the new team will be playing better teams in better markets.  No way does a Tulsa team need to be in a league that includes Joplin Missouri.  (I have similar views about the Drillers playing suburbs in Texas and not real cities like in AAA).

That is ridiculous for the logos to be that similar.  Terrible to use Thunder colors.  I've never been to a soccer match outside of U10 for my children.  So, no bone to pick.

Best Tulsa Sports Team Logo Ever!

Best Tulsa Sports Team Logo Ever!

Back when logos were hand-rendered rather than created by someone on a computer with no real artistic skill.

That is ridiculous for the logos to be that similar.  Terrible to use Thunder colors. 

The University of Tulsa, Oral Roberts University, Tulsa Drillers, and the Tulsa Oilers hockey team all use the same shade of the color blue. The Tulsa 66er's used the same blue and orange used by the Roughnecks and the OKC Thunder.

If you are upset with teams using the same colors, you are probably going to stay upset.

In Pittsburgh, all the sports teams, Pirates, Steelers, Penguins, use the same two colors. It makes it easier for fans to color-coordinate.
