Get rid of the shadowed numbers and the blue and this could work. This might be my fav mockup yet, if you lose the shadow and blue.
^ That's the best I've seen thus far, and by best I mean most 'realistic' in terms of what a team could do and still stay tied to its heritage a bit. And I agree with dropping the shadow.
Ehh I don't really like those, I don't think the neck and jersey should be different colors. That swoop thing looks weird, I just think those original grey ones posted earlier looked dope. And that glove and cleat color has to go.
Like it's really mattered all these years! Because you don't like it, think it's a cartoonish, it's better to replace it with another one that's worse because of a helmet. ....
Agreed, best I've seen. I also agree with doing away with the shadow. My only other thought would be to make the font look more modern.
If the whole team has to wear those black ninja visors, I'm in, lol.. I still like those other ones that DWhiteboy had.
The all white uni is pretty sick. I'd go for that. Also white pants/orange jersey and white pants/aqua jersey. good stuff.
You only think that because you like it. Right now it is a cartoon Dolphin wearing a helmet. A level two Pokemon that has the water spout and whiplash powers.
I'm betting that those who like it far outweight those of YOU that don't. It is rich in tradition.....like it or not!
Are you the Miami Dolphins or Miami Hurricanes? Seriously ridding a classic Dolphins uniform to follow a design looks similar to a local college is fail.
I can take minor tweaks, but I can't stomach wholesale changes, including introducing silver. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Rich in tradition, still silly as all hell. One level away from getting helmet ram. The only logo in the NFL, WLAF, XFL, AFL, AFL2, NFIL with and animal and a helmet. Proposed today people would think it was a pop warner logo. Still has plenty of tradition.
Some people are getting way too crazy about this. Lets face it.......not much you can do with a historic NFL franchise, has pastel colors, and has a dolphin mascot. Its like trying to make Barney the dinosaur badass.....simply not possible. Don't fix whats not broken. Just tinker with numbers and move on. No silver, god no. No pokemon logos. No Miami Hurricane loook-alike uniforms. No Arena league horrible designs and colors.
Your passion blinds you from the truth. Words that can be used to describe current Dolphin logo: Cute, adorable, silly, and pretty. No other NFL logo can be described with those words.
I just assume they go back top the old Unis. if they can make them cool then by all means, but I am scared they would look hideous
These are my personal favorites, many don't like the grey..which I'm cool with omitting. The old school logo on those uniforms just looks sweet to me. Just my opinion.
I like the logo. There is nothing blind about that! It's badass. That is truth! It is assinine to me to just want to change it to damn near anything because it JUST needs to be changed. Especially when most Dolphins fans want it to be the same or go back to what it once was. That is truth! So, it's not my passion for the thing here that has made me blind. It is your hatred of it that's made you blinded from the truth!
I have never liked the helmet on the dolphin in the logo. I've always seen it as ridiculous. But, people always tend to resist change and then act like the good old days were better regardless.
The fact you call it "truth" shows your passions are blinding you. Plus you think that I hate it. I do not hate it. I would rather the logo not be silly. I liked it a lot when I was 6 because it was a Dolphin wearing a helmet. That was funny. ha ha, look at it, a Dolphin wearing a helmet. Then they made it even more into a cartoon. It is assinine to change just for changing sake. However I do not agree that it is assinine to change the Dolphins logo so it isn't cute and silly. So in conclusion, even the fact that you call the cartoony silly logo badass is proof that you are blinded by tradition and love.
True, it looks silly. I agree with you. I'm just saying tons of logos and names can be perceived that way: - oh how cute, a bird on their helmet - oh how cute a lion on their helmet - oh how cute a buccaneer on the helmet And that goes for all sports. Team names and logos are kinda silly, but its fun.
I like the cartoon errr current logo... mainly because of its ties to the original. The current version is just a bad remake IMO. Not exactly a timeless masterpiece. It also represents the dark ages of dolphin football. The helmet on the dolphin was always cool with me, but I wouldn't be upset if they took it off. No biggie. In the event they do something new, all I ask if for is Aqua/Orange and no disproportional dolphins (muscles, posing,) White>Grey>Silver Wear throwbacks at home twice a year. Every road division game.
You have absolutely no clue as to what you're talking about. I never knew a Raven played football. Damn! Having a Raven on a helmet is just silly. I never knew a lion played football. Damn! Having a lion, that happens to be sitting on a helmet, is just silly. I never knew Buffalo played football. Damn! Having a Bison on a helmet is just silly! Every single team that sports a logo of an animal must be silly because, god forbid, if someone put a helmet on any of them as their logo, it would be just the silliest thing alive! The fact that because you think you're all grown up now and want, what YOU call silly, to change, is even more proof that you want change just to suit you! That is the blind leading the blind right there. The logo that was shown earlier in this thread, where we began this, has a freaking M in the middle of it! And you want the helmet gone because Dolphins are not swimming around in the ocean with Helmets on their heads. Yet that other, ugly *** Logo, is better? Even though Dolphins are not born with the letter M on the middle of their backs? The double standard is humorous! And again, I'm not blinded by anything. I know what I like! It has nothing to do with how you think. Do I love the Dolphins? Yep! Do I love the fire ring that the Dolphin is jumping thru? Yep! Dolphins did that everyday at the aquarium parks.... Do I like the current logo? I want it how it was! That was perfect....
And the Dolphin is a Dolphin! It just so happens to have a football helmet on it's head. Neither one of them are close to being reality because the both of them don't play football, wear football helmets, or go around sitting on them...
I don't even mind the grey in those beauties..The owner and marketing people should make this a public regional vote, bet these would win hands down.
Miami Dolphins logo dolphin is aqua,not grey....and it looks way better. no grey in the uniform. no good unirform has more than 2 or 3 colors. add a 4th color and its fail.
I like the All Grey Unis. Kinda gives a masculine feel back to the Dolphins uniform which isn't too masculine or menacing save for the All Whites. Aqua tops has a real Lane Bryant type feel to it.
That's your opinion, no good uniform that has more than 2 colors is a fail? Oakland is probably the only team that only has 2 colors, a majority of teams have 3 to 4 colors.
