YOu have NO idea what you are talking about. Buffalo bison doesn't have a football helmet on, neither do the lions of the lions or the Ravens of the ravens. For the love god you are awesome at taking a straw man argument. You are the king of blinded. It is so sad.
Which is silly. Something you find hard to grasp The lions have nothing to do with it. They don't wear helmets. They are lions on a helmet.
And where did I say they did? Nowhere! If you were not so blind you might have read and understood what was said.... So shhhhhhh Don't feel one bit sad for me, or even say it! I'm quite comfortable in my own skin, and extra comfortable wearing something with a Dolphin who has a football on his head over that skin. Nothing blind about it. It has looked nearly the same since they became a team. I've seen it very clearly all these years.
Don't even try to type that bullcrap! You do not set the bar as to what has to do with anything here. A dolphin with a helmet on it's head is no more silly than a lion being on or sitting on one. Especially when the lion can hardly be made out to be a lion....
I'm not resisting change though. I just like the one they have now. If they change it, I have no choice but to root for the players who wear it. The only choice I'll have is if I want to wear it. And the good ol days logo is, by far, better in a lot of peoples views. Has nothing to do with the fact that JJ had it changed once he got here. He wanted a meaner look. I wear it all the time but want the old one back .... not because I'm typical but because its something I LIKE...
How does that even make any sense? Yes a Dolphin with a helmet on his head is more silly than a helmet that has a lion on it. Especially since in your photo in your signature there are two dolphins that on not on any helmet. Logos stand alone. I am not going to judge a logo because of what someone puts it on. That is asinine.
See thats the thing. You and a few others are the ones calling it silly. Now speaking for everyone else is assinine! What are your reasons for calling a Dolphin with a helmet on his head silly?
It makes it look like a Disney Cartoon.....The Bills, ravens, lions, cardinals, etc. have much more intimidating logos.
Lmao!! Yet the Dolphins have as many, if not more, SuperBowl wins than those teams listed. Intimidation is not an acceptable reason because if you have a great team, it does the intimidating.
We're not talking about the team, we're talking about the logo. One, by itself looks more like a childs toy than the others. Those SBs were eons ago. We are thought of more recently as an organization that cant get it together since Marino left. Its subjective any way I guess.....
But whether most people actually like it or are just typical is an unknown. IMO if it was day one of the franchise and there was no logo in place, I doubt that the old logo would be favored by any thing close to a majority. I don't think it would have a chance of being selected.
Seeing a Dolphin with a helmet is pretty funny. You keep on using that word, I don't think it means what you think it means.
Then it might be foolish for you to think..........you know Seeing people cry about a helmet on a Dolphin, that is mearly a logo, is damn funny
We? You just chimmed in and made a comment that had nothing to do with anything and it's WE? You're the one who said it was not intimidating. Intimidation has absolutley nothing to do with anything. You also just said we're not talking about the team then went on to talk about the team.... If you don't find it to your liking just say you don't like it. Please don't tell me how it intimidates noone!
It's not that unknown! Being that I wear something with the logo on it almost everyday, I'm often asked about the team and when the word spread about Nike making some changes, It was the topic of most conversations for a short time. But the name of the team and logo were selected by the people once! So it is entirely possible since history tends to repeat itself. I don't care about the helmet. It does not make or break me but it's been there forever and people where the same logo around town like it's going out of style when the team is good....
It is, so why are you crying so much? It is a silly logo. There is nothing wrong with liking a silly logo. I wouldn't mind it changed. Despite what you think I do not hate it. If I hated it, it wouldn't be on my wallet or hanging on my front room wall in many places. Your arguments are getting more and more crazy.
The argument that you think you're qualified to say its silly and I'm just crazy to think otherwise is YOU crying just as much as anyone!
It is silly. I am fully qualified to say an animal wearing a hat is silly. How is that even crying? See what I mean about your argument is crazy?
Are you really arguing that animals in hats aren't silly? I mean: ...according to you neither of those images are silly? Really?
*******, I never once said they were or were not! I said it's not his right to say I have to see it as silly because he says so! I said I like the logo just the way it is! Now kiss my *** ...
Dude it's time for you to shut up with the smartass bs! You've carried this conversation just as far and have dove into little insults after little insult at me while doing so. All i said was to change the logo to anything just because you find it silly is asinine!
It is time for you to grow up a little. You have been doing exactly what you have claimed I am doing. You have been doing nothing but embarrassing yourself. That isn't all you said. You said the idea that the logo is silly is asinine. That the current logo doesn't look like a pokemon character and other crazy things to try to prove your asinine point. You have got so crazy that you have gotten to the point of just telling me to shut up. I will not be bullied by some internet acting thug who gets so crazy when talking about the Miami Dolphins logo.
I was just going to read this thread for the lols until i read this team logos have NOTHING to do with intimidation? dafuq did i just read I'm pretty sure logos and intimidation/spirit are some of the many reasons we are not called Team A Team B and Team C. I believe it would mean EVERYTHING before it would mean nothing.
That does not make it unknown. People simply can't separate their feelings and emotions about something that's been around for a while. And there was a time when Barbarella was considered good SciFi, but nowadays it's a joke. Things develop. And I get that you don't care about the helmet. I do and as somebody who also wears the logo quite a bit, I also know that many people not tainted by nostalgia think it's silly that the Dolphin is wearing a helmet.
What's wrong with someone's opinion on a team logo looking childish and silly being enough to want to change it?
As long as there is a Dolphin in it and it looks good I don't care...I just hope they don't make a Marlins style logo. They should just keep the logo and make an alternate one. But the colors/jerseys should go back to the 1970s version (no more navy blue, and lighter aqua/orange), except with the logo included on the side or chest as well. Some of those fan ones are pretty cool though, Marlins should've hired those people
So are Ozzy and I the only ones who want to keep the logo or go back to the original one? Surely there have to be others, since our logo has always sold very well.
I really like the jerseys we wore against the Cowboys a few years back on Thanksgiving. If they do change, I hope it is a change similar to that for the 49ers. They have some of the best jerseys in football now IMO. Then again, I also like the Seahawks jerseys which are the complete opposite.
