The 2009 NCAA Final Four logo has been unveiled...

and it's...A BURNING TIRE?


As Detroit is the host for the '09 Final Four, with it being played at Ford Field, I'm not sure if the logo of a tire in flames is fitting, or if the city should be insulted.

And just what is the reasoning behind a burning tire representing a Detroit based Final Four?


“You know, I have no idea,” said (Bill) Ryan, the executive director of the Detroit Local Organizing Committee, “ … so I will tell you that it means we’re one of the hottest sports towns in the country.”

Uh, if you want to believe that, you go right ahead...

  2. I would imagine the flames are for the wheel RACING INTO THE PICTURE. Like in a cartoon.

  3. Are elementary school kids designing the logos this year for the NCAA tournament?

  4. I think of a burning tire in some random abandoned lot of the Detroit slums.

  5. Why not just have a car with a broken window and its stereo missing?

  8. They're called hot rod flames. Any retard could figure out that it's an automotive theme. Imagine that...in Detroit of all places.
