Long story short, art and myself are kinda mutually exclusive. It's one of the things I just don't do well.

If anybody has a logo idea for the Brooklyn Fightin' Bums, I'm all ears. Brownie points to anybody who can actually create one.

Model one after an old Dodgers or Ebbetts Field logo.

I'm thinking the little Irish guy except with one of those hankerchief/stick things over his shoulder...

What are the others?

From a historical perspective, wouldn't Dem Bums be better?

Don't encourage him....I've found a decent logo that I am reworking. :)

This made me laugh. Make it so, Number 1.

Singing, allegedly. The others are similarly scarring, so we won't get into that.

When I think of a fighting bum, this is what I think of:

Or if you want something a little less obvious:

I looked for different versions of that guy, and stumbled upon another fighting type guy, which is what I tried to adapt (that version was VERY rough). Here he is, though I don't know if he'd translate to a helmet well.

Yeah, he looks kinda effeminate.

The Notre Dame silhouette would work, but...

Taken from an old Brooklyn Dodgers visor I happened to stumble across.

...maybe I should have mentioned I need a helmet, too? :D

I've let this slip, should have one later today. Figuring something like Dodger blue for the helmet color itself.

That's great, in a really, really creepy sort of way.

Now I just need to find a bunch of winos to inhabit the endzones with their bottles in paper sacks.

I'm in. Mad Dog 20/20 works just fine. Or Thunderbird. Hell, I'd even take one of those bag 'o wine in a box deals. :D
