The caption describes my reaction to any new logo for the Fins.

Secondly, I've noticed that the coaching staff, particularly Joe Philbin wears a dark blue golf shirt instead of the teal green or white with accents we've all grown up with. I see that some of the proposed designs incorporates this dark blue color into it. I don't like it one bit.

I'm a traditionalist and relish the teal, white and orange colors.

Are they nuts? I believe so. We don't need a logo change, a uniform change, just a winning team. And, winning isn't 9-7. Winning is beating the Patriots for the next decade, playing in the SB and winning one of two of them.

This stuff doesn't really bother me one way or the other, it's another way for the owners to sell more Jerseys, it'll change again in a few more years.

As a 6 yr old Kid in 1972 , living in NYC , what attracted me to the team was the Aqua and orange. The Dolphin logo. I hated that Green and white uglyiness of the Jets when it came to my mother buying me a jacket. I also liked the Bears logo and the Gold & Black of the Steelers. But the Phins won out and I have worn nothing else since. They had better not change the colors. I'll go with some modernization of the Logo, but I won't buy shit if they change the colors.

GO DOLPHINS!!!!

I don't like the "alleged" new logo. It isn't the worst in the league, but I'd miss the helmet on the Dolphin. As for coaches wearing team colors, I seem to remember Shula wearing navy colored shirts on teh sidelines a few times. Anyways, who cares what the coaches wear? The players wear the uniforms,not the coaches. Tom Landry never wire Cowboys attire on game day on the sideline.

Right, and sometimes they purposely wear a different color so they can be spotted on the sideline by players on the field.

Remember when Strock used to wear a different-colored vest over his jersey on the sidelines?

I would bet that shirt has a Dolphins logo embroider on the front, i have seen the coaches wear the same dark blue shirt with the logo. Miami Dolphins have and still do sell navy blue shirts of all kinds with Dolphins logo..

I actually like the Navy color and the logo has already undergone some change. As long as it doesn't stray too far, I am alright with it. With that having been said if the logo is that proposed one we are all seeing then I think I will puke.

Every coach since Shula, except for maybe JJ, has worn dark blue shirts with dolphins logo during some games during their tenure... including Wanny, Saban, Cameron, Sparano....

Putting a little more navy blue in the mix wont hurt, but that alleged new logo is terrible. Navy Blue & Orange as main colors with Aqua trimming might look ok.
