Weird list... I'd say there are many "better" logos than the ones listed, but the article seems to connect the logo with identity in the sport and the history of the franchise like the Bulls and Yankees. The Bears logo best in the NFL? Really? Lame.
Nice props to the Dolphins though on any account, especially since this version of the logo is only 15 years old. I'm surprised the Dallas Cowboys star isn't on the list.
I used to always say the Packers "G" stood for "Goons".
I was thinking about the Dolphins logo and colors earlier today, I sway back and forth on preferring the old 70s & 80s lighter colors and smaller Dolphin design vs the darker colors and fat Dolphin.
It's a basketball on fire. How is that not worthy of the top ten? Especially considering the Lakers' logo made it. The Heat's logo is better than the Lakers'.

I can't say I agree much with the list. And while I've always liked how unique the Dolphin team colors are, I don't think the logo is all that great. I am just not overly enamored of cartoon animals with anthropomorphic characteristics on a logo.
lakers, bulls and mets are the only ones i have a problem is. dont see what is special about any of those. i would replace those three with the steelers, raiders and tigers
white on white? you sir are a visionary. ray charles and joe paterno would be proud :wink2:

lol @ a dolphin being a gentle animal
Maybe around humans.....
When Dolphins show up, you can stop fishing and move because everything in sight just hauled ***....
And hard to believe it's number 7 but hey, I'll take it;]

That's cool,we're moving on up.
I remember the days when we were always second to last and I didn't know why.
It was sad...The best thing about it was the Jets were always the worst logo.
Screw him! The Dolphins logo should be absolutely number one !!!!!

browns is pretty bad too. actually the bengals had a pretty cool helmet in a barry white, shag carpet kind of way
He rated them more as classic logos (surprised Steeler's logo wasn't on the list) IMO more of the animal mascot teams have better logos.
Dolphins are ruthless, and so smart. When you see them on discovery channel teaming up on a million bait fish and how they do it, is amazing.
Go Dolphins !!

Rafi doesn't like the cartoon Dolphin, for me, I always loved the White and Coral and Aqua colors, besides on TV all you see are those colors and a bluish blob with a circle around it anyway.

^ That's the best logo ever created. The jerseys that go with it are also the best jersey's ever.

lol. Heh. Dolphins are playful. :) Considering that they ejaculate at a force hard enough to injure (I've heard it compared to a shotgun blast), it's a good idea not to take them up on their offers. :)
:lol: that's it we win for coolest mascot.

And the difference between 6 and 8. Without fail every single game of the late 90s, the TV commentators would argue whether a holding penalty was on Richmond Webb or James Brown. :pity:

The more we find out about dolphins the less gentle they seem. They kick some major *** in the ocean.

SICK, adamprez2003 and jetssuck like this.
But the Dolphins come dead last in food safety.

ah the 6 and the 8
somehow Charles Jordan got a lot of credit for catches that actually belonged to Gadsden....
Living ing the bay area all my life I've come to despise that logo.
LOL, the Raiders rarely sell out a home game so they're only really on during away games. And with Sunday ticket I don't have to watch too many Raider games. But with the Dolphins coming to Oakland this year I'm kind of stuck. Do I bite the bullet and go to the collesium (which I HATE doing) or drive to my friends house in Sacramento and watch there because they're out of the blackout zone.

Sorry for the quick assumption. I'm usually pretty good about not assuming lol. I've heard it gets pretty nasty at the Colesium but I've never been there. Whichever you choose, best of luck!
Btw, welcome to the site. :)

They're short stint down in LA, offered more than enough history to share your disgust, and witness firsthand the sort of wretched dregs that all too often identify with this team.
Crawling out in droves from seemingly the darkest corners of obscurity, from county jail, to the heaviest gang infested regions of the city, outlaws of all crime and creed, rose up to proclaim allegiance, and bid worship to its villianous image, an albeit artfully portrayed invader, fittingly adorned on an otherwise much maligned, widely dreaded emblem.
