Honoring Pat Tillman 10 Years Later

April 22, 2014 marked the 10 year anniversary of the death of Pat  Tillman. The act of patriotism that Tillman showed leaving his NFL career to become an Army Ranger is something that no one should ever forget. Tillman should have a statue at every NFL stadium as far as I am concerned.

I am guessing that for the 10 year anniversary of Tillman’s death the Arizona Cardinals and Arizona State would both have some kind of helmet decal honoring   this anniversary. I personally dislike the way that sports teams try to honor a fallen teammate or owner. The traditional logo/sticker is a black circle with the persons number or initials inside the circle in white. I would like to a honor logo/sticker that has a little more thought put into it. My thought is that if someone is important enough to honor shouldn’t we do something more fitting of that honor?

Below are some ideas I had for a logo. I wanted to have all 3 badges Cardinals, ASU, & Army Rangers plus the 10 and Tillman in the logo. My fav is the first. I really like the idea of using the uniform name badge on this logo. I played around with a couple different versions of the 10 and added some yellow for ASU in a couple.

I really think that all NFL teams should wear the sticker on their helmet the week ASU and the Cards wear it as the main logo. All season would be better but I don’t know if you can get that to happen.

I would also like to see all of the service academies wear this sticker on their helmet too.

If the Cardinals, ASU, any NFL team, any service school, or any school for that matter wants to use my logo creation they can free of charge just contact.

Let the NFL & the Cardinals know you want this to happen. Stop tweeting out cat videos and retweet this.

@CharlesSollars @AZCardinals that would be a sweet helmet, only problem is, the NFL has final say on that stuff. I'm in, what can I do?

    I also would like to see a weekend where both the Arizona Cardinals and Arizona State wear a full sized honor decal on one side of the helmet and a digital camo version of the team logo on the other.
