With all the changes going on, I was wondering what you thought about the Bengals LOGO. I personally still like the tiger of 1997-2003. I guess the "B" is ok, but I feel it's time to change it.

I would tend to agree with you, but this is a slippery slope to a full-blown uniform thread. Just sayin.

Alright... Stay with me here. I think the players should start the year with completely blank orange helmets. When a player makes a great play, they get a stripe (My phone wanted to go with the word stripper right there). We could even do the same with their nameplate on the back of the jerseys. They start off blank.... Tyler Boyd scores a TD, he gets a B... So on and so forth.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.

Pretty cool idea, which is why the NFL would never allow it.

Keep the B. The leaping tiger looks like a high school logo. And an outdated one at that.

The leaping Tiger was still better than the B. Maybe they go with crouching tiger? You know, one that looks ready to attack, rather than one that looks like it's prey ran away in mid-leap.

What can I say? My phone knows me.
Actually one of the saddest parts of getting a divorce was when I realized that I've completely outgrown strip clubs... I feel bad for the broads, and they're pretty damn annoying.

How bout a tiger with whatever kind of deer they have India in it's mouth... Maybe a small child or something. I'm not married to the idea... Just a tiger carrying some sorta prey.

In India? Maybe the Tiger is clutching the sacred cow, or even a Brahmin child?

To me the "leaping" tiger always looked like he had just been kicked in the ass.

Hopefully that's Coach Taylor's plan.

I don’t like the leaping tiger either. A little like Detroit’s lion. I like the tiger of 97-2003.

Umm, Phil... The Tiger of 97-03 is the leaping tiger that we're all speaking of.

If you look at the link on my original post it shows the leaping tiger in 68-69 and the tiger head 97-03. It could be wrong though.

Yeah, that old one isn't a leaping tiger, it's a charging tiger with a football. The leaping tiger was the logo on the center of the field, and on the shoulder of the jerseys, in the 97-03 era.

I guess I just like the head shot and not the whole tiger.
