Earlier in the day, we told you about how NFL.com might have accidentally leaked the new Miami Dolphins logo.
The website eventually removed the logo and replaced it with the old one.
But, then on Wednesday afternoon, a seemingly befuddled Dolphins CEO Mike Dee confirmed that, yes, the logo that appeared on NFL.com is indeed the new Miami Dolphins logo.

And, judging from fan reaction on Twitter, a few like it.
But most pretty much hate it.
Except Dan Marino. He approves.
Saw the new @miamidolphins logo. Followed the development stage & now its great to see the finished product. #NewEraNewLook #13Approved

The leaked image of the #Dolphins new helmet featuring new logo is pretty nice I must say.... twitter.com/PhinsDaniel/st...

Based on pattern, seems new logo is no longer based on a bottlenose dolphin but a common dolphin. The one rarely seen and no one cares about

Yes. It looks like a nipple ring. RT @cdotmart: @adamsmoot I mean, I like it. Can you trash it in 140 characters?
-- Adam Smoot (@adamsmoot) March 27, 2013

I wasn't planning to buy merchandise anyways. I'm on a Dolphin spending lockout til they make a playoff game. Still hate the new logo.
