It is a trademarked image representing the Chicago Cubs baseball organization. So...a logo.

• A logo (abbreviation of logotype,[2] from Greek: λόγος logos "word" and τύπος typos "imprint") is a graphic mark, emblem, or symbol commonly used by commercial enterprises, organizations, and even individuals to aid and promote instant public recognition.

• a symbol or other design adopted by an organization to identify its products, uniform, vehicles, etc.



#FlyTheW my friends.

The logo is on the hat. Any image trademarked by a team or associated with a team isn't generally referred to as their logo.

Are you attempting to change the definition of the word logo?

That's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for him.

If the W flag is an official Cubs "logo" then when will they wear a uniform for a game with it as the logo?

Also, if it is a logo, why is it only referenced after victories by the Cubs on twitter? Why wasn't there a tweet that said "Cubs lose in 5 games to the Dodgers. #flythew"?

The other funny thing is that Purdue has been flying a W flag after victories since I was in college. However, they haven't been flying it as often lately and I don't know if they stopped because we sucked or not. I think it was black though so it's obviously different.

Useless drivel

That would be a primary logo. All teams in each sport have a primary logo and secondary logos.

You were arguing that the "best logo in sports" and today you say that the W isn't even the team's best logo.

That is just great.

Seems to me that the primary logo would also be the best.

Not surprising that you'd prefer to take the ultra simplistic view.

But I'd argue that the entire reason throwbacks, alternate jerseys and 100 variants of team merch exist is that subsets of fan bases prefer different logos and looks.

I've know many White Sox fans that rightly prefer the Sock on the baseball diamond over the hideous SOX script. Yet the SOX is the primarly logo.

The primary reason throwbacks exist is to sell more hats, jerseys, and other merchandise.

As a marketing professional, I'm surprised you don't realize this. Very sad.

So when will the Cubs be wearing the W flag as a logo on the field?

The Cubs haven't hired me yet, so I am unqualified to answer this question. Soon™
