Hey bubba,, how have you been?
Long time my friend. Hope to see you more often.

Agreed. For any long time Rams fan, the new design is blasphemy..

Ok - I'm lying. I'd never leave. But I'm confident that's the one thing they wouldn't. do.


I wouldn't mind the red/yellow as a throwback. I like throwbacks that make you go WTF is that, something you never knew was part of the team's history. It's part of the fun of the throwbacks.

That said, not expecting it to happen...

Check out 1945 and 1949. I like 45 better than 49 but 64-72 gets my vote.

I agree in concept that wackyness is part of the allure of throwbacks. Like the Steelers bumblebee uniforms. They are awful - yet, as you said, part of their history. But I do not think they would be using them if they were brown and orange.

Please continue to keep red away from the Rams in any capacity. I am certain that they will.

I am less certain that they will. But I agree completely that they should (not use red -- at all).

Another reason i don't think it's gonna happen anytime soon is the Rams are still in expand the brand mode, reaching out to a huge untapped portion of the L.A. market, not a good time for a wacky throwback.

Steelers, Packers have basically got 100% of their market share already, makes much more sense for them...

And, after seeing so many different iterations, the Ferragamo's are STILL the best IMO. Iconic, look good, traditional and unique. There really isn't a way to improve on them.


No, there isn't.
