Because it seems like I only start threads related to logos:

The Miami Dolphins confirm their new logo appeared on NFL.com this morning. - South Florida Sun-Sentinel.com

I don't think it's a bad logo in general (maybe for a tour company), but a poor fit. The original is so iconic to me since they were such a popular team when I was growing up. The new one is definitely sleeker but lacks the attitude. Seems more like a secondary patch for a baseball team than an NFL logo. Thoughts?

Looks like a juice drink logo
 
That dolphin is going to be a victim of a concussion if he plays without a helmet.

I've never liked Miami's unis/helmet but I figured they always kept it because they went undefeated in those unis which I can respect. If you're going to do a new logo then do a new one. This is a weak version of the original. Not as bad as Cracked Out Herky but along the same line.
 
Their old one was so bad it was good. The new one...sucks.

Bad change, IMO.
 
I like it better. The dolphin is a very intelligent animal, and all these years we've made it wear a dunce helmet.

Looks like a mistake tattoo that thousands of girls have just above their hipbones in the 90's and 00's. My only question is will they add distortion and/or stretch marks to the logo in a few years like said girls?
 
You just can't make a dolphin logo look intimidating. They are just not a mean fish.
 
the new logo looks awfully gay. and by gay i do mean carefree and showy.

i am a dolphins fan, and though the old logo also looked stupid (who puts a helmet on a dolphin? really?), this one has to take the cake as the worst mascot in the nfl. at least the old dolphin looked a bit sinister. this one looks like the kids model.
