We as fans have very little to bitch about nowadays. We love our Coaches, We have a roster full of talent. Our off-season could not have gone better so what do we have left to bitch about.....oh yeah our UNIFORMS. In 2 short years, everything will be in place and then what will we have to bitch about? The cost of beer at the new stadium?

Well, I've put on a few pounds lately...so I'm going to complain about that.

They talk about rebranding as if it is like splitting the atom.

The horns on the helmet aren’t going anywhere.

Option 1: modern version of Ferragamos with blue in uniform and helmet matching

Option 2: modern version of Gabriels

Logo keep

Hilarious...and I concur. Only a knucklehead can screw up something as easy as a uniform.

Rams work on changing uniforms, but because of NFL rules don't expect to see anything soon

Cornerbacks Marcus Peters, Aqib Talib, defensive lineman Ndamukong Suh and receiver Brandin Cooks will provide the Rams a new star-studded look on the field during the upcoming NFL season.

Barring changes from the NFL, however, fans will see the new players and their teammates in uniforms that have stirred controversy since the Rams returned to Los Angeles before the 2016 season.

While the Tennessee Titans, Miami Dolphins and Jacksonville Jaguars will sport redesigned uniforms this season, Kevin Demoff, the Rams chief operating officer and vice president for football operations, said the Rams would don the same combinations as last season, when the Rams won the NFC West and advanced to the playoffs for the first time since 2004.

Demoff said the Rams and Nike have worked together the last few months about starting the process for a redesigned uniform and that the Rams probably would make an announcement about a timeline in the coming weeks.

"By the end of the offseason, our fans will know what the timeline and process will be and how to get involved in the jersey process," Demoff said.

Since their return to Southern California after a near two-decade absence, the Rams have been planning a major rebrand, including uniforms. The original target was 2019, to coincide with a move into their new Inglewood stadium. But the stadium opening has been delayed until 2020, so the Rams will decide by the end of this spring whether to introduce redesigned uniforms in 2019 or 2020, Demoff said.

The Rams had blue and white uniforms in the mid-1960s and then changed to blue, yellow and white in the '70s. The St. Louis Rams' colors were blue, gold and white.

The Rams' home uniform last season was a white and blue jersey with gold accents, white pants with a navy blue stripe, and a blue helmet with white horns and a white face mask.

The road uniform was most often the white jersey with blue pants that featured a white stripe. Against the Dallas Cowboys, the Rams wore blue jerseys and blue pants. Against the Jacksonville Jaguars, they wore blue jerseys and white pants.

The Rams wore blue jerseys with blue pants when playing the Dallas Cowboys on Oct. 1, 2017, in Arlington, Texas.

Demoff said that after surveying the Rams' schedule, he did not foresee a circumstance that would force the Rams to don blue jerseys on the road this season.

The Rams wore so-called "throwback" uniforms twice last season in home games against the Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers. The uniforms featured blue and yellow jerseys and yellow pants with a blue and white stripe.

Demoff said the Rams would continue to talk to the league about trying to expand the number of times they can wear the blue and yellow "throwback" uniforms.

The Rams requested to wear the uniforms for a Week 6 game at Jacksonville and for the home wild-card playoff game against the Atlanta Falcons, but the requests were denied, Demoff said.

"We have spent the year educating them on our fan base," Demoff said of the NFL. "We forwarded them all of the fan complaints, the emails we get, so I think they're well aware of our fans' preferences."

The Rams also wore yellow-dominant color-rush uniforms in Week 3 against the San Francisco 49ers at Levi's Stadium. Running back Todd Gurley, for one, is a fan of the ensemble, which he described last season as "something different."

"Obviously just generic jerseys every game for us anyway, because we wear the white jerseys every game now," he said laughing. "So it's like we get to wear something different other than the throwback colors, but it's just cool man."

The NFL is expected to revisit the color-rush parameters league-wide this offseason.

The Rams' uniform situation is one of several the league is studying, an NFL spokesman said.

"As we do every offseason, we are working with Nike and a number of our clubs, this year including the Rams, on various issues and ideas around their uniforms," the spokesman said in an email.

Demoff said he understood some fans' frustrations, and that the team was working with the league to come up with solutions.

"It was always with the idea that we'd be able to revisit it during the offseason when there's more time to plan," he said. "Hopefully, they recognize the challenge we have and appreciate the connection the fan base has to the blue and yellow.

"If we can avoid wearing our Navy jerseys next year, we will."

Rams want to wear blue and yellow uniforms more often, but NFL says no
https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2 ... l-says-no/

Posted by Michael David Smith on May 11, 2018, 9:51 AM EDT

Since the Rams moved back to Los Angeles, questions have raged about which uniforms they should wear: The blue and white of Merlin Olsen in the 1960s? The blue and yellow of Eric Dickerson in the 1980s? The blue and gold of the St. Louis years? Some combination?

The Rams are working on a permanent answer, but in the meantime they’d like to wear the Dickerson-style throwbacks more. The NFL, however, has other ideas.

Rams COO Kevin Demoff says the team has asked the NFL for permission to wear the blue and yellow throwbacks more often, but the NFL limited the Rams to wearing them twice last season. Demoff said he’s working on explaining to the league office that the fans would prefer those uniforms.

“We have spent the year educating them on our fan base,” Demoff told the Los Angeles Times. “We forwarded them all of the fan complaints, the emails we get, so I think they’re well aware of our fans’ preferences.”

Demoff said the Navy blue jerseys the Rams have worn aren’t anyone’s favorite.

“It was always with the idea that we’d be able to revisit it during the offseason when there’s more time to plan,” he said. “Hopefully, they recognize the challenge we have and appreciate the connection the fan base has to the blue and yellow. If we can avoid wearing our Navy jerseys next year, we will.”

It’s a bit odd that the NFL won’t let teams wear whatever uniforms they want, but it appears that the Rams still have some work to do to convince the league to let them wear those Dickerson-style uniforms on a full-time basis.

I like the color rush yellow jersey more than the Navy

Personally, I don't buy it. Stan was able pulling off ripping the team from St Louis but they are going to tie him down with red tape over uniforms?? Good grief...

He forgot to mention that they were blue and yellow before the mid-60's with the exception of those red years.

Stan got the Rams out of the hellhole St. Louis because Jerry Jones helped him. Jerry can't help him with uniforms since the Cowboys have their own agreements.

We’ve waited this long for a change and I think we could wait a couple of more years but they better not fuck it up in 2020.

It HAS to be yellow or blue.

Seems status quo to me:

Rams intend to unveil new unis with new stadium.

In the meantime they want to appease fans who hate the current uniforms, or at the very least give the impression they care and are working on it...
