New Ownership Changes

I agree except KEEP the angry hawk not Toucan Sam. I know the totem pole history but I ALWAYS hated the whimpy looking bird. Mean hawk is so much better. The old colors are the best.

Your terms are acceptable.

3 - Upgrade VMAC

4 - Increase focus and resources on player health, safety, and conditioning like Broncos did under their new ownership

5 - Bring Scot McCloughan back.

I'm OK with 4 out of your 5 points. I don't want anything major done to Lumen Field. Replace the artificial turf with real grass if they must.

Yeah, I hated that logo, too. If you want to do something to honor Native American history, then erect a totem pole with an interpretative plaque somewhere in the stadium. But let's keep the stoned seagull off our uniforms. It's worse than Tampa Bay's gay pirate.

Oh yeah, who can forget that pirate and the orange creamsicle colors. Both 1976 NFL newbies had stupid helmet logos but at least we had righteous uniform colors. Tampa’s uniforms and logo were atrocious.

I was 9 when the Hawks came into the league living on the East Coast. Never did like the local team. When I saw those colors they became my team.

Imagine a winking Seahawk undressing you with the other eye. There's no way we are in the same league as the gay pirates, at least there's some native heritage involved

Yeah, the gay pirate was probably a worse logo when you combine it with those god-awful colors. They were the product of the era defined by bell bottom pants and leisure suits.

Nevertheless, that stoned seagull was bad. It's the result of the politically correct crowd designing something that belongs in a museum rather than on a football uniform.

And I agree with @Seahwkgal. I liked the rest of the original uniform, including the black shoes. Jack Patera wasn't about to convert to the old AFL-style white shoes.
