I'm thankful that the football is blue rather than brown and I also appreciate the more modern "A" that was used since 91. I think they will look very sharp on the helmet. I'm also thankful that the shield logo is still going to be in use as a secondary logo as these are the 2 best logos in franchise history.

What's interesting though is that this logo is very much the same as the one created in 1994 (except that logo had a black football, see Will's avatar on the first post in this thread). I remember it being stated that the logo didn't get onto the helmets in time for that season but would be there the next but then they completely rebranded and went with the new Jason logo. Was John Candy the one responsible for going back to the boat logo and then the change in ownership the reason that they didn't?

I guess in a way, this logo might honour Candy as well if this was true.
