I want minor. Eliminate the navy blue, it was a dumb idea from the beginning. Darken the teal. Alter the logo so the Dolphin doesn't look so "cartoonish". Go back to a grey facemask. Keep the white helmet.
Can Ross be trusted with this? |
I doubt Ross is the one out there with felt tip pens colouring in outline drawings, so yes. I imagine the uniform changes will be managed by CEO Mike Dee, who incidentally supervised the changes to the Red Sox uniforms in 2008/9.
Deets, you have a strange affection for teams in that horrible sporting region, how were they received by fans?

If it was by Ross, our colors would be black and orange, we would have a theme song for them sung by a famous rapper, and our logo would be a shark.
Imagine his surprise when somebody tells him there is a football team of that same nature. He might just abandon us and buy them.
I'd like minor changes. I would hate something like the Seahawks, but I expect that since that is the path the NFL is heading towards. |

Fingers officially crossed.

^^ if this happened would the NFL have to get Officer Krupke to umpire whenever we play our New York rivals?

Nice reference ukdolfan!

They were not significant changes so the Fenway faithful didn't rage about it.

I disagree. In fact, the Fins could use an updating of their uniforms. We have gone over this time and time again. The Fins uniforms are weak. So much that I do not own any Fins gear that is not in navy blue. I think the teal based shirt is awful. I can live with white but that teal jersey must go. I am even ok with the orange. Miami just needs a change.

Good gosh, a Broadway reference--!
How about for Ross black-backed uniforms with white underbellies, and a name-change to "The Killer Orcas", for greater macho and currency? |

I actually like the Navy Blue jerseys color wise but I dont see them representing the Dolphins well. The Teal is meh and could do with some darkening. I am definitely a fan of the Orange jerseys tho.

| Not sure any of this matters, since we always seem to wear the blah white-on-white uni's anyway. But as long as they don't go with the pansy orange jerseys or some godawful nike-designed pro combat garbage I'll probably be ok with it.. |
