The pinwheel design for the Trailblazers has been around since the beginning of the team and it meant to be "a graphic interpretation of two five-on-five basketball teams lined up against each other." Which is kinda cool. It was also designed by the owners cousin. Not as cool.

Final voting results (including instagram poll) Jesse Alkire is our winner with 60% of the votes.

The Astros have a history of logos and uniform changes that shame other franchises. Though they started life as the Colt .45's, the name change to the Astros 60 years ago brought Houston a space theme they have leaned into since.

Final voting results (including instagram poll) Justin Acosta is our winner with 52% of the votes.

Iconic franchise, iconic logo, and a blue jersey that has jinxed the team since 1968. I wrote this before either entry was submitted, did either want to give the Cowboys another blue jersey to lose playoffs games in? (Ed. note, they did not)

Final voting results (including instagram poll) Jared Smith is our winner with 87% of the votes.

Part of the 1967 NHL expansion, the Penguins have had basically two logos since then. They also switched from their original blue and white colors to the all-Pittsburg, all-the-time color scheme of black and yellow in 1980.

Final voting results (including instagram poll) Mathew Bell is our winner with 58% of the votes.

The franchise suffered for the first 12 or so years then had the #1 pick in 1982 but had traded it away in 1980. So Cleveland fans, lets play revisionist history where one of these two logos adorns a throwback jersey with James Worthy's name on it. #LetEmKnow

Immediately after the Falcons introduced their current logo in 2003, Michael Vick broke his leg, so we understand their reluctance to switch it up. But if they ever wanted to, here's a couple great options.

One of the answers to "what 4 NBA teams don't end with the letter S", the Heat could maybe break out of the middle of the pack this year if they threw on one of these bad boys.

The Chiefs, the Kings, the Monarchs. All Kansas City team names (at the time) that give you a sense of royalty. But don't let that fool you with how the baseball team came up with the Royals. Blame that on the American Royal parade and pageant.

So let me get this straight. After being awarded the franchise, the ownership group revealed the logo first, the announced a contest to name the team, then announced the contest was won...by the owner?

Undergoing a number of name changes, the Seals were the only member of the 1967 NHL expansion group to not win a Stanley Cup. Though only lasting 11 years, two of which were in Cleveland doesn't really help the cause.

In 1948 after a Grey Cup victory, Stamps fans rode a horse through the lobby of the Royal York hotel in Toronto and had a pancake breakfast on the steps of city hall. That's a pretty badass fanbase.

The Defenders won the first game in modern XFL history (forget that first year, most of us have) but also lost the championship a year later. They have already had two logos in that short time, lets give 'em a third.

An original six team, they've been called Tex's Rangers (because of original owner, and friend of Wyatt Earp, Tex Rickard) and the Broadway Blueshirts, the New York Rangers won the Stanley Cup in their second year as a team (though only three more in the next 95 years).

The Squatch. Not much more to say really. Someone needs to pay someone to bring this bad boy back.

It's been 11 years since the team could Bend It like someone but with five MLS Cups, another four appearances in the final, eight Western Conference regular-season titles, four Supporters' Shields, two U.S. Open Cups, one CONCACAF Champions' Cup title and a Wooden Spoon, this team has established itself among the stars.

They have had the same logo (with a color shift) since their introduction in 1998. Lets give them a fresh start. Though honestly, they should have seen this coming. Get it? Mystics? Fortune telling? Seeing the future. Get it?

Keeping with the trend of teams with celebrity ownership, the Hornets are to credit (or blame) for teal being the sports fashion go-to color of the 90's. Between the teal Starter jackets and Zubaz, 90's kids really were the pinnacle of taste.

The Red Dragons, The Robins, The Town. Also, that team owned by those guys. Here's your rematch between the two guys who already took on a historic franchise earlier in the SDB season.

Efficient, accurate and a perfect fit for Joe Montana. Are we talking about the West Coast offense or these logos? That's up to you.

Sure, the Wild is cool but you're telling me this team could have been named the Minnesota Blue Ox?

The Sixers haven't won a championship since 1983 so maybe it's time for a new logo, because as we all know new logos will get you 20pts and 20rebs every night.

The Texans have had their logo since their first season in 2002 so it's about time for an update don't you think?

The Monsters, ironically, just released their updated branding but they probably should have waited until they saw these logo ideas.

The Lehigh Valley Phantoms are a professional ice hockey team based in Allentown, Pennsylvania - I guess. Who knows.

The Warriors, undeniably, have one of the worst logos in the NBA so let's see if a designer can really "shine a golden turd" with this epic matchup.

Did you know the Kings are the oldest team in the NBA? They've been around since 1923! I think back then they were using a ball that was simply a large boulder and the basket was made out of dinosaur bones. It was brutal

Angel City FC is a great name for a team but if you're dyslexic like me you'll write it as Angle City which I'm also kinda into. Either way, check out these heavenly logos and pick your favorite!

The Hershey Bears have been around since 1932 which is a testament to their club but do either of these logos have what it takes to stand the test of time. You decide!

The Old Man and The Sea was about an old man's epic struggle to reel in a giant marlin - which is a lot like my design process. So, which of these logos lands the prize trophy and which one is still just fishing for an idea?

Which one of the Diamondbacks logos is a rare gem and which one is just a cubic zirconia? You decide.

Thankfully the Dukies lost to Tennessee in the tournament but these logos are winners. Pick your favorite.

The Caps have only one Stanley Cup to their name but maybe with one of these new logos they could expand their trophy case. You be the judge.

The Pittsburgh Steelers' logo is a classic and you'd be a fool to try to redesign it - so that exactly why we gave it a shot.

Decide which one of these OKC logos is just OK and which one is pure Thunder.

Can you dig these Nuggets logos, man?

The team America loves to hate, but can you look past your hate and find love with one of these logos?

J-E-T-S JETS! JETS! JETS!

Chicago Blackhawks was named in honor of the U.S. 86th Infantry Division, which was nicknamed the "Blackhawk Division" after Black Hawk, a Native American chief.

Philly Eagles' fans infamously pelted Santa Clause with snowballs in 1968, so this is what you might call a tough crowd to please. Which one of these designs fly and which one takes an iceball to the back of the head?

“I always thought that tea was just gonna taste like hot brown water. And you know what? I was right. It’s horrible. No, thank you.” - Ted Lasso

Which one of these Chargers logos really fills your battery and which one has just run out of juice? You decide.

Do these designs buck the trends or doe they just blend into the herd.

This is a special MASCOT DESIGN CHALLENGE for the furry and fierce Paws of the Detriot Tigers. The Detroit Free Press ranked Paws as the #1 mascot in all of MLB which frankly is ridiculous.

For a team that formed in 1977 they did a great job of naming the team with a timeless and classic name like the Blue Jays. I'm surprised they didn't call themselves the Ice Wizards or the Canucks or something stupid like that.

These concepts are bursting with Celtic pride, but which one is Red Auerbach Celtic, and which one is more of a Rick Pitino Celtic if you know what I mean?

Maine was filthy with pirates back in the 18th century. There are even rumors of long-lost buried treasure there. But the real treasure is these two fantastically filthy Pirates designs if you ask me.

It's the battle of the Scotts. A good old-fashioned pirate battle on the high seas of design and branding and.... baseball??

Are these NJ Devils' concepts devilishly good or bad, but bad in a good way, so.... the bad one is the good one and the good one is bad. So pick the worst one?

Which of these designs is fierce, and which one is just a jaggoff? You decide.

Fe-Fi-Fo-Fum I smell two great Giants logos; one will be victorious, one will be fish chum.

William Frederick "Buffalo Bill" Cody was an American soldier, bison hunter, and showman. He never even visited Buffalo NY but they named a football team after him anyway, I guess.

The KC Monarchs were the premier Negro League baseball team, lasting in some form or another from 1920 to 1965. Their history and impact on baseball are legendary.

What the hell is a Canuck anyway? I mean seriously, wtf? Well, go ahead and vote for your favorite Canucklehead here.

Can you feel the Magic in the air tonight? I know I can with these two concepts that are so good Merlin himself couldn't have done better.

These Saints are marching in... to your heart.

Who doesn't like basketball and boats or even better, basketball on a boat? I guess that's a thing. Oh yeah, check out these two excellent Clippers concepts. Which one floats your boat?

These Rockets concepts are blasting their way to your heart but which one will you take to the prom and which one stays home watching Golden Girls reruns with Grandma on the couch?

These two designers are really going head to head on their Ram logos - you know, like rams that bang their heads together? I'm tired, give me a break.

These concepts are quite bullish, but do they have what it takes to be on parade on a cold unforgiving January in Chicago?

Arsenal football needs all the help they can get this season. Let’s see if these hotshots can help by blasting out a new badge.

A heavyweight battle for a team that has a logo that yooz guys would be crazy to ever try and change.

Two old friends duke it out over Panther supremacy. Let's see if their friendship can claw its way out of this one.

You couldn't ask for more from this matchup. The Ravens have nevermore looked better.
