    Logo? Dolphin wearing a tutu jumping over a rainbow. Uniforms? Pink... all pink.

    LOL.

    It's not a secret which Uni's I want. I have been harping on it for a while. I want retro looking Uni's, I want the stripes on the sleeves, I want the Logo to accentuate "MIAMI". I want Navy Blue to be minimal. I want a "M" in the logo.

    I design friggin casinos..but can't use photoshop for ****.

    So I will give you a visual.

    I want our 1972 Uni's...cleaned up and sharpened with slightly thicker numbers, and rounded edges, similar to the broncos. NO LOGO on the uni. Maybe one patch logo on the left or right breast.

    The Helmet...white, aqua facemask or white, doesn't matter to me. The logo should use the Ravens as inspiration. The Dolphins are the charter pro sports franchise in Miami. It should be all about Miami and be proud to represent the city.

    That is pretty much my ideal uniform as well.

    If it is not any of those things I have a feeling I will be very disappointed. ****, we are going to look like the Seahawks or the Falcons.

    They will get my money because I like the logo. They won't get my money from a jersey purchase.

    The Dolphin is an animal that's seen to the vast majority as fun. If you want a SERIOUS F'ING BUSINESS mascot, you shouldn't have a Dolphin. We're never gonna be in Slapshot screaming "Make it look mean!"

    But the Jaguar itself is the same exact thing. And I found the picture you were talking about, the patch is on the left side. Which makes sense, because to put it on the right side would break symmetry with the helmet's logo.

    Every Great White, or other species of shark, would like a word with you. They go out of their way to avoid dolphin pods.

    Screw it, we should just use this as the logo. If not, it should at least be as a patch on the front shoulder of the uni.

    and then there are fans that believe the product on the field and the culture of the team are not related.

    the team is changing both on the field and off. embrace the shift.

    Sadly, both the on field product and the organization / culture needed to be upgraded to more modern standards. Both are happening right now.

    its not one or the other, its both.

    If the team changes it's colors to Purple and Pink, I then will turn in my resignation as a Dolphin fan.

    I will just play fantasy football and gamble on games then.

    I think these logos I found online which are a touch up of the supposedly soon to be release new Dolphins logo is pretty good.

    Ultimately wins are what matters, culture is a big part of it..team pride. I am sure Raider fans would be thrilled if Davis desided to accent the uniform in pink..or the Giants went to a nice lavandar...stop belittling people because they are interested in the team uniform and logo. and sorry to say but you're not the autority on who is a true fan.

    There have been documented cases of Bottlenose Dolphins harassing/attacking Great Whites. Great Whites make blind side attacks against individual dolphins, but I can't think of an instance where a Great White has made an attack against a pod. Then there is the Orca, which actively hunts Great Whites.

    I could not have said it better myself.......

    why does 'color' and 'product on the field' have to be so black and white? it's puzzling to me, really.

    Do some people really think that we don't care if the team loses every game as long as the colors look good or something? It doesn't work that way and thats not what anyone is saying here in this 160 page thread if you took the time to read it....

    I appreciate the culture, thats why color/logo/uniforms mean so much to me, personally. I'm a youngin and my dad and HIS dad would kick me in the azz if I lost sight of the culture the phins have. But that doesn't mean it does not need to be modernized just like the on-field product does too.

    I didn't say they attacked pods. I said they don't go out of their way to avoid them. Great whites attack boats much larger than themselves. Many experiments have been conducted on their behavior and I've yet to see one where they show any fear. Caution, maybe. Fear, no.

    And you can't throw orcas in there. While technically a dolphin, it's much larger than the shark. We're talking normal dolphins.

    As for avoiding pods:

    Link.

    That was an 8 foot white. I'm quite sure a 20 footer wouldn't be too concerned. I'm sure there are instances where they've ganged up on a shark, but that doesn't mean sharks fear them. 20 midgets would probably kick your *** if they gang up on you, but that doesn't mean you'd cross the street if you see a group of them. ;)

    I thought you were on radio or tv or something?

    And yeah if those are the uniforms you want then I can tell you right now you're going to be sorely upset. Logo on the uni, no stripes on the sleeves, and actually DOLPHINS is accentuated over the numbers on the front of the jersey, not "Miami"

    Well IMO, I think the best logo would be for us to go back to an updated version of 72 team. Hell I'd take the 72 logo as is and the uniforms. Tradition at its best.
