I think it is a cute concept and it draws back on the history of the Hogs of the 80s and 90s, but I don't think it would be a cool look overall.

Yea I understand the concept and I guess it could be considered cute but unless I'm a Razorback.... lol.... I'm not interested. Besides, honestly it should be more of a big pig which is what the image was back in the 80's. and I can't see rooting for the Hogs or Pigs.

Completely agree. I just hope we can stick with the redskins name forever.

Leonsis doesn't own the skins.. love the red white and blue but no

Let us avoid the what if and work on protecting the brand

Just like you plan to protect your kids vs developing a plan if they get kidnapped

what about when the caps shared the wizards color scheme. can you imagine the redskins in that crap. during that time i feared that if the redskins were forced to change their name, they would have matched the caps and the wizards.

We're not changing. We've won the court case every time.

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over

Dolphins talking to league offices about changing logo in 2013.

Probably going to be a bad move.

Quote:
It’s not a certainty that change is coming, team CEO Mike Dee told Volin. The goal, however, is to consider a desire from fans to see the team “freshen up” its look.


“We’re not talking about changing colors or taking the sun off the helmet. It’s not going to be like when Tampa Bay changed from orange to pewter gray,” Dee said. “It’s definitely keeping one eye on what’s traditional in the logo intact, while keeping one eye on a 21st century version of that.”


Volin writes that the new logo would feature changes to the dolphin, likely with the facial expression gone and the aquatic mammal looking like the dolphin from the now-defunct Dolphin Stadium logo.
