The side by side is night and day. New logo wins and it isn't even close.

The old logo screams a defeat kinda attitute, like being hunched up; on the other hand the new one is totally different, everything is pointing "up".

Am I reading to much into it?

Wonder what the next one will look like. :shifty:

Not crazy about the whale looking tail but at least they took off the helmet .:yes:

I was merely responding to the poll, which wanted to know, "what I thought of the new logo". I guess the only people who are suppose to write how they feel about the new logo in this poll are those who like the new logo.

Perhaps in the future, when someone offers a poll on a topic, maybe that person should state that only those who like or agree with whatever the poll is referring to are allowed to give responses on the thread.
I obviously was not aware that only positive comments about the logo were allowed on this forum. It starting to appear that a few people on here want to dictate what is right and wrong in regards to the views of others.

No, you are encouraged to voice your opinion as often as you would like. In this case your opinion was that the logo doesn't matter to you. After reading this post, I assume you don't like the new logo???

I like it, really like it. A new logo brought championships to The Broncos and The Pats. Scientific fact: New Logo = SB Champion.

In light of today being New Logo Day, I'm letting your post go by without the 100's of comments that jumped in my head.

Somehow, I have to think I am relieved by that statement!

I think my wife just said it best:

If we had a daughter who played soccer, she would be pumped to have that as her logo.

Your wife is hysterical.

Buccaneers count?

This new logo is awesome.....if the Dolphins played in the Arena League. :-(

Much preferred the one on Ellerbe's twitter account - http://www.dolphinslogo.com/wp-content/uploads/formidable/Miami-Dolphins-Logo-20131.jpg

I cant believe I care this much! :)

I like it.
The more you see it on various team gear, the more you'll like it.

Even though I am a 40 year fan I never understood or liked the helmet on the dolphin so I love they got rid of that. I am really looking forward to seeing how it looks on the helmet. Depending on the angle and what they do or don't do with the stripe will make it or break it imo.

Sarcasm or Irony? :lol:

Both? :confused:

It's better than the prototype. So in that sense it's growing on me. Really want to see the new unis.

I didn't mind the helmet, what pissed me off was it being without a facemask :shifty:

I will?

I don't care either way, which actually means I don't hate the new logo, but I don't like it all that much either. I hope it will grow on me.

more than the logo redo, I'm very happy they are bringing back the old hue and I don't mean Hugh Green.

The new logo will grow on me I'm sure, but I'm not getting morning wood or anything from it. Still seems very generic with little detail when compared with the old one. I guess I'm getting old, new things take more time to get used to.

One of my buddies from fantasy football called, said your new logo is F'n awsome.

The dolphin is good, but I'd like to see it used on the helmet before I pass total judgment as I think it looks more like a secondary sleeve design. I'm not a fan of the style of the sun - at all. Too sharp/spikey. And I don't know if it's because of the shirt creasing but it looks poorly drawn in parts. However, seeing as this had the potential to be absolutely horrible I am overall happy with it ;P

" it looks like a whale " : Your confused and must be basing this theory off the tail. It's identical to the old tail, first of all ( actually its less-whalish after another look ). Your just paying too much attention to it now, which is understandable. Secondly, dolphins tails are pretty much identical to whales tails. The real difference is in the head. You'd have to be missing a chromosome to honestly think that's a whale and not a dolphin.

Besides, most who don't like the new logo were of course expected not to like it, and constantly bitch about it. What else do they do ?

Not a fan. The colors are well assembled and the new sunburst is very good. But the dolphin itself doesn't convey what I think it's meant to; certainly it doesn't look speedy or like a "missile" as some are describing it. Why? Because the tail is pointed up, not down. If the tail were pointed down, then that would indicate that the dolphin was propelling itself forward. Tail up means its last burst has slowed and it needs to push forward again. It's static, not active.

I also don't like the rectangular orientation. The best logos, at least the logos I like the most, fit within a square. I don't just mean sports logos, I mean logos in general.

Lastly, I don't get why people hated the dolphin helmet. The only thing wrong with the dolphin helmet is that the helmet wasn't recursive; instead of an M, the helmet should have had a picture a dolphin wearing a helmet, which itself would have a picture of a dolphin wearing a helmet.

Oh well. I'm sure the logo will look just fine when shoved into Tom Brady's facemask.

Those two words perfectly describe my experience as a Dolphin's fan lol
