They aren't even the worst in hockey. I think the Ducks win that prize. The NBA has several terrible logos and MLB only has two teams no using the latter of the city as a logo. How unoriginal can they make an entire league?

Sure, but they all at least look like they were professionally done. That Islanders logo really looks like it was just slapped together. The lettering is cheese, the hockey stick and puck are cheese, and the island image looks like a bad rorschach test.  I understand where you're coming from when you say that other logos are bad as well, but I think the Isles logo is the blue ribbon baby of the hot graphical garbage world.

I'm not asking for black jerseys.  I'm asking for aqua pants.  I'm asking for some aqua stripes or accents.  I'm asking for a little color and creativity.

You can't honestly tell me that aqua pants make players run slower and get tired faster.  Really?

I guess the combination of the two. I can't really pin point it but it seems more like it should be numbers on a tight tank top of two guys walking down south beach to me.

I don't think you can even see the pants in that image.

But I will miss the aqua sleeve stripes if they are gone.

I don't have to see the pants - I know from 2012 that they will wear white pants.  They took the color off the facemask, so why not just wrap out players in bed sheets and send them out there so they don't get warm.

I thought that maybe the Facebook hate would die down, since it cooled off over the last few days.  Nope.  Today is some good trolling.

Better than what is being discussed in my neck of the woods.

You may be on to something Brian. I think Mr Ross is obviously a gay racist who is trying to mirror a KKK robe!! Maybe even he's the Dolphin in the sex video?

Potential look of the fins
http://blogs.palmbeachpost.com/thedailydolphin/2013/04/04/talking-points-miami-dolphins-use-official-draft-visits-on-small-college-prospects-too/





http://www.thefinsiders.com/blog/2013/new-dolphins-helmet-to-feature-white-facemask



See when I see that look, with the helmet/logo and potential uniform, I actually like it.  My wife thinks the logo looks fine, even though I've been harping about it, but after seeing that image of Tannehill, I think it comes together.

Love the numbers, and getting rid of the blue and going back to the traditional colors.

That certainly looks legit and maybe it's just the lighting, but that looks a lot darker than the stand-alone logo.

It really looks much better on the helmet than stand alone.
