Ok, seasons over so one nice change would be to go back to the old logo.
Anything but this new one.
We were the only team with aqua too.
now we are blue like so many others.
Sorry just have to vent a bit.
Please watch ebay, a couple of my Christmas presents will be on there.
I put on my new Dolphins sweatshirt, but just couldnt stomach it.
If they cant play well (consistantly) they should at least look good.

The Pats' logo upgrade was horrible, except for the results they got--a few championships a few years later...make it what, seven or eight years later? I think they went "Flying Elvis" in the early to mid 1990s. That means you've got a few more years of waiting!
The Broncos, however got a championship right after changing their logo, didn't they. I think it was the first or second year afterward, so there's that.
Then there's also the theory that the logo doesn't have a damn thing to do with the team's performance. A theory I subscribe to, but for the record I also prefer the old logo---it just doesn't bother me quite as much.

I hate to say it guys, but our logo was doomed from the start.
I was born in Miami, but was only 2 when the team was conceived.
Had I been of a more coherent age, I would have been a bit disappointed with the original logo,,,a dolphin doing a jump, off-center of the sun, and wearing a special-ed helmet. I know I would have written a letter of protest had I only been 10 years older.
But by the time I really latched on, they were going undefeated, and winning Super Bowls. So the logo was very tolerable, and it grew on everyone.
The new logo was less than I was expecting, but I feel still better than the old one. I thought a fresh start and look was really needed. JMHO.
