Do you like the new MLS logo compared to the old one? #845

Absolutely.

For posterity's sake:

The old one is crap. New one is simple, badge-y, and just nice. It's also hella flexible. Look at the best team on the planet's MLS-specific logo:

(Ignore the Quakes logo itself, which is fucking terrible and I can't believe they spent money on a redesign a few years back and came up with THAT.) But the MLS logo lends itself to change up the colors, so on each jersey it's specific to that team. Love it.

I think it fits really well with US Soccer's more recent redesign too:

It's a little unfortunate that it's not "soccer"-specific (but for the love of god, please no more soccer balls on the actual logo) but I really like the new badge itself. I think it's crisp and clean and will last for quite some time.

Some haters say it's not as good as the Centennial Crest used in a previous kit a few years back:

...but I think it's better. It's not as good as the inside eagle of the current 2018 kits, or another one that I saw that I can't find right now because Twitter search is terrible, but overall I like it.
