    Replace NFL shield at midfield?

    [​IMG] You may have seen the petition, floating around Panthers' message boards and popping up regularly on our blogs. Its point is to get the team to switch its midfield logo in Bank of America Stadium from the NFL's famed "Shield" to Carolina's stylized big cat.
    The petition was organized by a group called Fans For The Logo, although no individuals are named. The explanation of the petition reads in part: "This petition is to show Mr. Richardson (owner Jerry) an example of how much it means to the fans for us to have our own logo on our football field. What would Dallas be without the star or even the Colts without their logo? Fans take pride and ownership in some of the simplest things."
    And while I can think of many more important things to spend one's time on, as fans they have every right to pursue this one.
    So I called the club to see if changing the midfield logo was a possibility, or even on the team's radar at this point.
    A team spokesman said there are no plans to make changes at this time. He reiterated that Carolina officials believe that the NFL logo reflects the respect for the league and reinforces its popularity, just as the Panthers logos in the end zones reflect the popularity of the team.
    Still, the team knows about the drive.
    "The Panthers are aware of it (the petition) and appreciate the passion of their fans," the spokesman said.
    So that, at least at this point, is that.

    They need to paint the end zones black again. That looked awesome.

    They could paint a dick and balls at the 50 and I wouldn't give a shit as long as they were WINNING FUCKING FOOTBALL GAMES!!!!!


    I may be in the minority but I kind of like the classic look of the sheild at midfield.
