The Brooklyn club, originally known as the Gothams, had been experimenting with different color schemes throughout their short history. This season they adorned themselves in a rich blue and began calling themselves the Bluebirds, and they’ve never looked back. Perhaps just as significant from a historical standpoint, the “B” initial on their headgear marked the first appearance of a logo on a baseball cap.
