Another Design Submission for the Oklahoma City NFL Team
After Uni-Watch linked to our logo submission post again, our site traffic went through the roof. By 2100 CST, over 5,000 unique visitors read our site.
And we received our second design submission. David Firestone also broke the first rule of the contest (by not naming the team the Roughnecks), but that's just fine. We're happy to have another submission.
Mr. Firestone chose the name Crazy Eights:
And we received our second design submission. David Firestone also broke the first rule of the contest (by not naming the team the Roughnecks), but that's just fine. We're happy to have another submission.
Mr. Firestone chose the name Crazy Eights:
"I created an Oklahoma City design called the Crazy Eights. The theory behind that is that Oklahoma is the 8th largest city in the US by area, and the 8 is a graceful and simple design. The white and silver color scheme is based on the Oklahoma Wranglers, as they were the last pro football team to play in Oklahoma City. I couldn't choose between red over silver, or silver over red, so I went with silver over red on the right side, and red over silver on the left."
Thanks to Mr. Firestone for his submission. Love it? Hate it? Tell us in the comments. And don't forget to share the contest page on social media. Send your own submissions to OklahomIraqis@gmail.com.

Not a fan of naming a team after the population. What happens if the city grows in population?
I didn't name it after the population, rather I named it after the fact that Oklahoma City is the 8th largest city in terms of AREA
Don't like the codpiece effect. Nope. Not even a little bit.
Not a fan of naming a team after the land area. What happens if the re is annexation?
I agree Bert. Other than the codpieces, I like the look of the team. But the name I can't get behind. It sounds too much like the "Southside Locos" gang that was featured on "Gangland": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oklahoma_City#Crime
