Divisions to be Legends Division and Leaders Division...........................Wow, they are making the ACC look super-smart right now with Atlantic and Coastal Divisions.
 
I like this division name suggestion better:
 
SEC Victims Division
Future SEC Victims Division

I figured it had to be a joke when I first heard Legends and Leaders, that is just awful.

Judging from the online backlash, that logo and those division names could both go the way of the San Francisco 49ers' "one day logo" in 1991, when they got so much hate mail about their new logo that they just changed it back.

This logo looks kind of familiar....






It may not look good enough for San Fran but its damn sure good enough for me.

I thought the same thing Job.  I looked it up after TF mentioned it.  Looks very familiar.
