So whaddaya think of the new logo, buddies? Chris, Hammer and I are pleased as punch, and I’d like to thank Mike the designer for a top-notch job. I’ll be adding Mike’s business information to our template soon for anyone who’d like to utilize his services.
Right now we just wanted to get ourselves a proper brand and to give things a little bit of a facelift around here. Eventually we’ll be offering shirts, toques, mugs and other assorted crap available for purchase - as we’ve actually had several requests for schwag. I’ve set up an arrangement with a printing company here in Boston to keep the prices as low as possible. We don’t really intend to do more than cover the production costs - we want y’all to rock the Goon colors very affordably.
Please give us your thoughts, and we’ll be giving away our first batch of T-shirts via a contest of some sort within the next month. Enjoy the rest of the season, kids.
You were right about the logo, it’s bad-ass. Sign me up for a couple of shirts and a hoodie.
Here’s a question for you guys, how come the Red Sox have had more fights (in spring training) this ear than the freakin Bruins? Think we can get Julian Tavarez a pair of skates?

The logo will be on the back, with sayings/phrases across the front. So far we’re leaning towards “Shit Disturber” and “You Wanna Go?” as the first to be produced. That might be a good idea for the contest. Think of a good tagline, get a free shirt.

How about “five for fighting” and maybe “sin bin club memeber” or ” Shut up and Drop the gloves” or “did someone say yardsale”

Beauty logo!! The guy looks a little like Keith Jones and I’m glad to see there’s no shield on his lid. I’d go for “Shit Disturber” on the clothing and hats. It’s a phrase that came out of the WHL many years ago, and accurately describes what HAL GILL ISN’T! Keep up the fine work.

Of course that’s what Hal Gill is.
Oops, didn’t see the “Disturber” part.
