  • Dude. Google "worst football logos" guess what will be the very first result. Go on, guess.

    Bro...your avatar is the brownie elf. Easily one of the three gayest looking football logos of all time...right up there with the old buccaneer.

    Wow.

    Who's your favorite football team?

    The Brownie Elf is a holdover from the 50's, Jim Brown had it on his uniform. The elf is holding a football. Football. Not swimming through the seas like a gay dolphin in a tampon commercial.

    It's OK for your logo not to be "tough": the Brownie elf, the Cubs, the Orioles ... none of the bird logos are particularily scary, just because you put a mean face on a bird, it's still a bird. But it's OK, because its symbolic.

    THIS ... is gay: dolphinslogo2.jpg

    I seriously would expect to see that on a box of tampons.

    This was not designed by a heterosexual or a football fan.

    It screams "vagina".

    Recap:

    Old School Elf holding football: Cool.

    Vagina-inspired sea mammal flowing around the sun: Gay.

    Logo designs are becoming more minimalist. The Dolphins were on the right track, but didnt quite nail it.

    The Brownie elf can look cool, it has potential. But it's a holdover from a different era of design and it just doesn't hold up well today.

  • I respect your love of the browns z, but go ahead and put the elf in black and purple what do you think of it then?

    I didn't say the logo was "bad", I said it was "gay".

    Google gayest football logos. Then Google it again next week and you'll see the tampon box dolphin.

    I'd think someone messed with a football icon.

    And if I was a Dolphin fan I'd be pissed they took away the Dolphin's helmet and made him a Kotex salesman.

  • Their old logo was both gay and absurd then. Why the fuck would a dolphin have a helmet?

    For the same reason an elf has a football, a man has a head that is a baseball (Reds), a dinosaur is dribbling a basketball (Raptors), and a Penguin is skating and holding a hockey stick ... because they are just fun symbols for incorporating the team name and the sport.

    It's fun.

    I used to drive to Cleveland as a kid and I'd see a 50 ft. tall red-faced Chief Wahoo swinging a bat. I knew Indians didn't really have bright red skin. I knew no one was throwing him a ball. I didn't question why he was swinging a bat because I was going to a fucking baseball game.

    This Dolphin is not fun ... it's humorless, does not render the sport or the spirit of the team and it belongs on a box for Summer's Eve.

    ABSURD....ABSURD...How bout thinking your 'favorite' team has the gayest logo. Don't try and get logical with that type of shit falling out of your jaws.

    You used to drive to Cleveland as a kid? You were breaking laws even back then? πŸ™‚

    Anyways...the real point why I was responding is I will always remember seeing that giant Chief Wahoo on the side of the old stadium, just like the sign on the other side for the Cleveland Browns. Used to always get me excited driving by there.

    Once again, Google worst football logos. Apparently I'm not the only one who thinks the elf sucks. Where's your logic now, chummy?

  • Brownie is awesome, he's from the forties. Uniforms haven't had major changes either, and I think they are still cool. Not everything has to be 'new and improved',

  • a simplified and more representational logo is better than the old one where they tried to short-bus the fuck out of a constipated dolphin who had to wear a helmet. I'm not crazy about either logo, but at least they got rid of the Retard helmet and the stink eye. No one should have ever been proud of that trainwreck.

    Affinities have no standing in logic base arguments.

    Whether or not someone loves the Browns is immaterial. When "gayest NFL logo" is Googled, the Brownie elf appears. That's logical because it is fact.

    Personally, I like the elf. I think if it's redone right, it could easily be one of the best logos in sports

  • The NFL's best logo is no logo.

    Dude it looks like something my 13 Yr. Old daughter could whip up on the puter in 5 mins. I'd be really pissed if I was a fins fan.

  • and the agency that came up with that SHIT billed out 250k for the job, at least.

    the elf is the shit. put some timberlands on him and a backwards hat, drop the football (not literally , pleez) and put an ak in his hand with smoke comin out the end. or maybe have him holding back an angry pitbull. young and hip enough for ya cysco?

    the elf was made back in the day where ad agencies were cool. martinis all day long. screw some big titted secretary on your desk during a pitch session, yeah, those were the days. now we got junior straight out of design or film school making terrible taco bell commercials.

    as far as the dolphin logo goes it sucks and it's gay. but i'll leave all that and step aside and listen to what TCPO says on the subject. ya know he fucks dolphins right?

    My logic is just because some fag who doesn't follow the team thinks the team logo is gay, doesn't make it gay. You can change the logo to whatever you want and those fags still won't follow the team. So what does it matter what they think? Don't come on here like some 'gay' list takes precedence over what real fans of this team and members of this board think. You can print up that list and wipe your ass with it, chummy!

  • the elf logo has don draper and the leo burnett team written all over it. classic.

    i don't know if the elf was ever the logo for the browns and don't care one way or the other. i think it could be used in some fashion on the new unis. like a patch on the chest (did they already do that?) but that's about it.

    it's not like the browns will EVER have anything on the helmet besides the stripes. get that out of your friggin head now.

    So presumably that means that whatever we might think of the new Dolphins logo, doesn't affect whether it's 'gay' or not?

    It shouldn't matter to a Dolphin fan unless he's gay.
