The color doesn't match the outfit and should have been changed to white or Dark Grey. It looks like crap. Anyone else think so?

That is the ugliest Cardinal Logo I have ever seen.:barf:

Yellow is the color on a Cardinal. Its like the bengals trying to say I don't like the color of the stripes on a tiger, lets make them green and purple.

OK maybe you would prefer a red and yellow uniform then. I like the logo without the yellow. The yellow looks cheesy as hell.:p

Something that bothers me...

It seems that the new Cardinal logo on the helmet is smaller than the old. I wouldn't expect that it is but to me it looks that way. I would really like to see it increased in size.

Along with that the chin straps invariably cover the front of the logo; beak/face area. Minor complaints I know...

But it is really buggin' me! :?

I think they should have gone with a gold beak...but black or grey would look pretty weird IMHO.

Even though the red beak is more accurate. I like the yellow beak better.

That is a totally different red. It should be much closer, if not the same, as the rest of the crown...to be like the picture...I like the yellow-gold better.

Wow. This thread...come on training camp.

We've been through this a few times already on this board, but a cardinal's beak can be either Yellow OR Red. I think it has something to do with the time of year, or maturity level or something like that, but Yellow works.

I put this graphic together to show the difference between the old and new helmets:

The Cardinals did change the color of the beak for 2005 (think Packers/Vikings/Chiefs/Chargers/Steelers/Redskins Gold now), and I think it looks better. The old Yellow was too light and bright; I think the new color works.

I too was hoping for some of the new Gold/Yellow in the uniforms, but it actually doesn't work with the new uniforms.
