One of the readers on Mining the Gold Rush, my 49ers blog, left a comment in one of my recent posts on the 49ers uniforms. He goes by the name of Matt and this was what he said:
"http://mywireless.nfl.com/teams.php?category_code=49ERS check out that link.....I'm not the first one to discover it, saw it in another 9ers group...looks legit"
I went over to the site and saw that NFL.com provides cell phone wallpapers. That's a pretty cool feature. But by looking at the images labeled "secondary", the image on the right appears.
Is anyone familiar with this logo? It has never been used in any official games or merchandise to my knowledge. Yet why would this be available unless it's a design for the future?
This design features black like the current logo and also features dropshadows like the current uniform numbers on the team. But what's with the shield? The only shield that I liked was this old school one. Is this the 49ers' attempt to add a little old with the new? Your thoughts on this?
