Dolphins Unveil New Logo; Uniforms
-
You used to drive to Cleveland as a kid? You were breaking laws even back then?
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.
Chief Wahoo..Iconic
"Summers Eve" Dolphin....idiotic

Chief Wahoo is one of the most tasteless racist crap logos of all time. I get that it's been around since nineteen dickety-doo, but that doesn't make it good.
it reminds me of this:

"we can't change the south park flag! that's our history"

Chief Wahoo is one of the most iconic sports logos in the history of professional sport. Almost everybody can instantly distinguish what it represents.
Chief Wahoo will never be done away with. Even as the Indians are moving away from the logo on their caps and jerseys, Chief Wahoo merchandise will always exist.
For a guy complaining about a logo being racist, you sure don't mind throwing around homophobic terms. So what is it, PC or not PC? Or are you only PC when it suits you?

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:

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.

Got around to putting in my .02- would make a nice Logo for "Sea World", put it on a football helmet, not so neat. EDIT: Just thought- they could give the dolphin red eyes, like the Raven's bird logo- to make it look "meaner".

What are you talking about? I was probably the only one supporting your stance on gays in the locker room. Do your homework. I'll reference south park again.
"What? You think we meant GAY fags? That's not cool."

No, you weren't the only one.
For what it's worth, you can't really call our logo gay and tell guys to "go blow it", and then also claim to be a proponent of equality.
That's like saying "all them there niggers should be free to pick their own damn cotton sonewhere else".

Well yeah I can because of something called context. Before homosexuals appropriated it Gay had a much different meaning. Well guess what? A whole generation re-appropriated it. Sorry if you don't like it but its happening all over. That's why lgbt's have put forth their whole think about what you're saying campaign. Yeah well, the logic works the other way too. 'Gay', even 'fag' and 'N*****' don't equate. Not even a little bit. In the says of yore when the town was having their barn dance or whatever no one was having a 'niggers' time. British people will buy a packet of fags. Nobody goes to the corner store to pick up a pack of 'niggers' to smoke. 'Niggers' is derogatory. It's always been derogatory and its never been anything else. Not the same, sorry.
Just being a proponant of equality doesn't mean you have to be a p.c. bitch. Oh, I'm sorry, does that mean that I think women should be barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen now, too?
Jesus Christ you're dull man. You don't seem to understand context. (Now, look I've gone and offended God. I must be an athiest god-hater, right?)
-
I was going to ask you how you'd like a team in about 50 years calling themselves the Cleveland honkeys but you know, look though I might I couldn't find any characature of a white person that was totally fuckin' racist, so there's no visual aid like I hoped there would be.

Under one theory of the origin of the Cleveland Browns name, they could, indeed, be said to be named as a result of a racial identification.
That theory is that the Browns are named after Joe Louis and his moniker the "Brown Bomber", the operative word being "Brown". Of course, he was called the Brown bomber because he was an African-American (or black or negro, whichever you prefer).
So, if we were to be politically correct, we have one team in town essentially being named the Cleveland "Native-Americans" and the other team the Cleveland "African-Americans."
And the final team in town is named after the Aristocratic/Royalist supporters of King Charles I in the English Civil War. Unfortunately, the person the Cavaliers supported had his head chopped off by their opposition.
The origin of the word cavalier derives from the same root as the words Chevalier in French, and Caballero in Spanish, and essentially means "horsemen", though typically the English Cavaliers were not depicted in current times as riding horses, though they probably did. They are more known for their wardrobe: The buckled shoes, knee stockings, long hair in ringlets, bright clothing with laced cuffs and collars, and of course the large, plumed hats.
The French counterpart to a Cavalier would be the Musketeer, who were the Royal Guards of the French King.
They, too, eventually had their King's head chopped off...but with a Guillotine instead of an
axe.
The moral of the story? Perhaps it is better to have your teams named after birds or animals or the like.

Aw, eriedawg, are you upset because you never can get the best of me? Keep trying, bub, one of these days you'll say something mildly interesting. Practice makes perfect.
-
Sorry mik, but you're the drop dead worst insulter on this board. You couldn't hurt my feelings to save your life.
what you fail to realize little man is i don't give a fuck.
it's all too obvious for most of us here that it's all too important for you. maybe it helps to prop yourself up in your own mind and be something that you're not.

You tried to insult me so clearly you cared, but as usual, it was embarrassing. 'I don't care' is the typical territory of the pwned. This thread could have been a serious dicussion about logo change using an established NFL franchise as an example, but them you and a couple of other jokers turned it into bullshit. If you want to trade insults with me you'd better bring your a-game. And if you act like a dingleberry you're gonna get wiped.

why??
we all know that you are the all and powerful.
how can anyone compete in such a real important game of internet tough guy with a 13 year old girl?

The fact that you repeatedly say its not bothering you tells me that it is. Psyc 101.
Another fact is you got all butt hurt when everyone said the dolphin logo sucked balls and you thought it was cool. So then you turn it into a browns and Indians logo bashing and start with the normal politically correct bullshit and say that chief wahoo is racist. If you really felt the way you do about gay rights you will slap that I support gay love bumper sticker on your car. But you won't because your a wishy washy fraud and a fake.

tampadawgs and cysco just came out the men's room together at halftime with chubs in their pants.

That and the color (teal or wtf) is about the gayest uniform I have ever seen.
