Hey, what’s up people? Two quick items before my Super Bowl preview, party tips and the winner of my game-worn cleats contest.
First, the Panthers have a cool new logo with a “more aggressive, contemporary look” that is “three-dimensional” for more digital use. What’s your take (old one on top, new one on bottom)? For fans, the thing about new logos and jerseys is that you represent for your team. For players, it also makes you proud to wear the emblem and play well for those fans spending money to be decked out in your gear. Even after leaving the U. of Oregon, I still feel proud to wear or show off the “O.”
Second, the NFL did this fun musical-themed video with several players singing and me playing a little piano. I also lined up with my teammates Jordan Gross, Ryan Kalil and Steve Smith to sing “Wind Beneath My Wings.” Ryan and Jordan do really good singer impersonations. Ryan does a great Sinatra! As for Steve, he makes some joyful noise! Check it out.
Alright, on to the preview!
