Philadelphia MLS franchise….Philadelphia Union



Today, at a ceremony at City Hall, the Philadelphia MLS franchise released its (already leaked) name and logo. The Philadelphia Union pays homage to our working-class city. We at Kotite’s are very excited for this moment being big soccer fans. The logo is cool. It has 13 stars for each one of the original colonies, of which Philadelphia was the capital. Within the circle it has the colors of the Philadelphia Flag. Under Union, it has the rattlesnake from a 1754 Ben Franklin cartoon. A little shot out to the greatest MLS fan club already, the Sons of Ben. The team colors (Navy Blue and Gold) were the colors of the American Continental Army. A secondary Logo has the shield with the saying JUNGITE aut PERITE (Join or Die). The team at the Union did a great job researching and picking an appropriate name and logo.

JUNITE aut PERITE

Uh, the motto is Jungite (with a "g") & Perite. As "the ONLY blog source of information for your Philadelphia Union," (and with good reason...), it would probably be good to at least get the motto right...

The name and logo that the Philadelphia MLS franchise lauched is very meaningful. I would have chosen excatly the same colors. I think it represents power. I love the golden letters.

I think the Logo is super, I like so much specially because of the perfect idea of the 13 stars, It's the best logo they've had I hope they having more excellent initiatives like this one.
