“While it isn’t always the easiest to hear, we value the commentary you have provided on the logo & colors. We are excited about the future of our team, our brand & our stadium, but recognize we can always get better through feedback and engagement and appreciate your passion,” he wrote.
Demoff poked fun at the organization for a good cause. He read the top mean tweets about the logo and raised more than $2 million for coronavirus relief.

“If some self-deprecating humor and people taking shots at me can raise money for someone who needs a meal, that’s the best thing I can do with my time,” Demoff told USA Today.
