Go organize a North Carolina Anti Defamation League, you crybaby. I understand why you don't care, all the hacky teams that you root for stole their team names from others. Go Panthers! Go Hurricanes!

You are a buffoon. All US pro leagues, for decades, have worked very hard NOT to duplicate the names of existing teams, even if the motivation is primarily for marketing differentiation reasons. When Washington got a baseball team, they didn't select their prior name (Senators) as Ottawa...

Yeah, your dipsh!te logic is correct. If a team names themselves for a tornado, nobody can ever use a different meteorological event. The Tampa Bay Lightning ripped off Tulsa too. The Miami Heat ripped off Tulsa too. The Oklahoma Thunder ripped off Tulsa too. You're just too big of a pvssy...

Once again, you dig your heels in, or else you just don't listen or read. Tulsa is the Golden Hurricane SINGULAR. They are named for a SINGULAR TORNADO. Not a tropical hurricane or hurricanes. Tulsa changed to the Golden Hurricane name in 1922 (from the Golden Tornado name), because they...

Let me see if I understand. First, you somehow missed every single time when I acknowledged the difference between "legal ownership theft" and "stealing something that someone else started". Wow. So now you are concluding that I used the term "stole" very loosely, when I have admitted that...

Bullsh!te. You jump into any thread that mentions North Carolina in a negative fashion. Stop being a little NC *****. Before North Carolina stole the Whalers from Hartford, the colors were blue, green, and white. They changed the name and the colors when they moved to North Carolina IN 1997...

Yeah, but this idiotic NC poster is going to focus on "legal ownership". As per usual, Miami did it first, and everyone else who does it is copying us. Stealing from us. Not in a "legal ownership" sense, of course.

Stop being a douchebag. There is a difference between "legal ownership" and somebody "stealing" something from us that we were the first to use. Miami started flying hurricane warning flags at football games in the 1950s. Everyone else that uses it FOR SPORTS took that from us. Just start...

Seriously, you are going to turn into a little ***** every time someone mentions North Carolina? This isn't the first time you've done this. As a sports representation, we used it first, Carolina took it from us. It may be legal (just as it was legal for the guy who wrote the "Miami Dolphins"...

I've always loved the split U, I never liked it as a font for all the other letters. I always thought the "U of M/University of Miami" hat was redundant, but it was also EVERYWHERE, we all had one. It was the teams of 2000-2002 and stuff like Kellen Winslow's tirade that made "The U" a big...

Nope. Sold it.

Then Nike started to get greedy:

This one was big too:

Erickson-era hat that we all rocked back in the day:

Don't forget, the "It's all about the U" didn't really start until the 2000s. We could have sold more U logo stuff in the 80s and 90s, but it wasn't in as high demand as it is today. When I bought baseball hats in the 80s and 90s, I preferred the old english "M" hats. This is the OG Miami...

I don't know that the palm tree was ever an official logo, but it was a commonly used motif in the 1980s. I started at UM in 1986, and we still had some 1983 National Championship shirts available at the UM bookstore. And those shirts were low-grade crap. People today have no idea how good...

Because...Nike didn't want to put the U on everything, and they didn't want to pay John Routh his royalty on the modern Sebastian logo (with pipe or without pipe). So Nike created a secondary logo for which they would get all the money.
