On this date: On-the-move Seahawks unveil new-look logo

“The new Hawk, he’s leaner, he’s meaner, he’s tougher, he’s got a little attitude, and I think he’s ready to compete in the NFC,” then-club president Bob Whitsitt said.

When I was a kid, my dad painted the seahawks logo across my bedroom. He's still ticked that the logo has changed!

That was the best change of image. That old logo looked like Toucan Sam. The current one actually looks like a mean hawk/raptor.

I loved that new logo the instant I saw it. One of the best NFL logo redesigns ever.

Agree! I don't look at the old "stoner hawk" and see scary. I like the new aggressive hawk better!

:13: ....and it came just in time!

When this happened, there were petitions and outrage on this very message board about the atrocity that was the new Seahawks logo. Looking back, kinda funny.

I remember thinking "they better never change the logo". Then they did and I was like "thank you for doing that!"

I'd take the new logo with the old color scheme. God I miss Emerald green.

This.

I miss the silver helmets.

the neon green just has to go. it looks so silly. total XFL rip-off.

Twas out looking at my stuff next to the freeway as I live next to the freeway, and saw a pickup drive by with a Logo painted on it. Ticked me off that I could not take a pic as they went by too fast. Great logo on the side with the head on the front door from my side. WA plates too.

Something Whitless touched that actually came out OK.

that action green makes us fabulously fierce!

Why does Goodell let Pittsburgh and NE and GB wear old retro uni's? Didn't TB wear their orange creamsicle uni's one year too?

haha the neon green isn't going anywhere breh

I love the neon green. Nike said they pulled the color from the lichen and moss found in the northwest.

Our Uni is the best in the league, not just design, but also the story behind all the colors and the homage to the NW.

Even if my opinion wasn't biased, I just know I'd agree with this.

I had no idea about where the neon color was selected from. It's pretty spot on. I dig it.
