Here is another story on this
http://www.palmbeachpost.com/blogs/content/shared-blogs/palmbeach/miamidolphins/index.html
Found an interesting nugget from the fantastic blog Uniwatch, the world’s finest blog devoted to sports uniform minutiae.
The writer, Paul Lukas, got a tip from a reader that the Dolphins are looking to make wholesale changes to their image.
Monday, he wrote:
“Word in Reebok/Adidas world is that the Miami Dolphins contacted them today to totally re-image them. We’re talking new logo, new color scheme, and new uniforms. Why? Because, according to their front office, they want to be “tough,” and unfortunately orange and teal don’t go along with tough.’”

Maybe the team will become the Sharks. Put a huge Great White on the helmet....throw in some black and we be all Gangsta!!!! :tongue2:
Here is what it could look like for our Miami Sharks:

Either leave it alone, or go back to the 70's Unis....Frumundah Finnatic, alen1, Themole and 10 others like this. -
The story would have more credibility if the dumbass that wrote it knew we don't have teal in our uniforms.Themole, steveincolorado, PMZQ and 5 others like this.

Or orange, for that matter! Our colors are Aqua, Coral and White, according to the founder, Joe Robbie.Frumundah Finnatic, Themole, theWeasel and 5 others like this.

I've always loved our colors, uni's and logo.

If the Dolphins ever change their uni's and/or logo and color scheme I'll never buy one. I like things just the way they are and repackaging the teams identity to try and change the image is silly, that change comes from results out on the field and not in a boardroom.

I'm hoping for and personally think it's a regurgitated rumor.
That one rumor from the ESPN guy has been regurgitated about a hundred times now.calphin likes this. -

I think it would be fun if we all emailed him some real zany info, just to see how far this could go. Like the new dolphin having fangs, or back hair.
-
Just got the logo tattoo last friday so no doubt they will change it. Leave the darn thing alone it is beautifull as is!

lol O man that would really suck. But at least the logo has nostalgia anyways.
If you think that would be bad then listen to this:
This girl I went to hs with was a diehard Detriot Red Wings fan. This girl has horrible luck. No common sense, coordination, etc. So she goes to get a tramp stamp tat of the Red Wing logo. The artist tattoed the logo backwards lol. Nobody noticed till it was all finished. -
Parcells and Co. have changed everything but the brand of toilet paper carried in the Locker Room. What makes anyone here think for a second they wouldnt change the Uni's?
-
I don't understand how any TRUE fan could ever say that:no:
-
Hes also a Magic fan. That answer your question :shifty:
-
should have known:wink2: -
i guess im a false fan :wink2: i dont see the big deal. -
-
I hope they leave our uniforms alone. They're great!
-
I'm always open to change, as long as it's GOOD change. A complete redesign of logo and color scheme may sound radical but i'll support it if it's done in good taste.

I would be all for that. We just look bigger and tougher in those, when looking back at that thanksgiving game against the cowboys.WharfRat likes this.

Not talking smack, but real men do not call colors "aqua and coral"
Light blue and light orange, maybe...:pointlol:
Leave the unis aloneLast edited: Aug 12, 2008 -

We should go back to the uni in my avatar! the ones we wore against Dallas when we layed the smackdown on them on Thanksgiving.
-
Those were some sweet looking uniforms. -
I honestly don't think it can happen soon enough. I think a revamped and modern uniform and logo is past do.
I would like to see something in Navy blue, aqua and white. But one thing is for sure....I would sure miss that Dolphin Orange.
As for a logo, I would like something that would resemble the Dolphin Stadium or even somthing like we have here at The Phins. Just a little more modern.
Don't get me wrong I still love our logo now and the old school logo we had. It would be a nice change. -
For what its worth, Uniwatch is the real deal.
-
I believe there WILL be a change in Uni. ParLand have done everything possible to change the culture and image of this franchise.
Dont be shocked if we have a new uni/logo next season. JMO though. -
we're good for a uniform change thread once every quarter. i think its been 3 or 4 months so...
and we dont need to change. everyone knows dolphins are bad-***, and they kill sharks and rape and pillage and are hardcore. well they rape, i dont know about the pillaging.Frumundah Finnatic, bigbucks24, mullingan and 2 others like this. -
Coming from the team with the spokesman from Ramen Noodles.:tongue2:
