I think we all agree that moving the Rams to St Louis was hard to take. Especially when they changed the uni's and colors. It was almost as if they were trying to "erase" the L.A. and make the Rams all St louis.

Would it right that wrong if they just went back to the old LA style uni's that EVERYONE loved?? I bet the Rams would never have changed a thing if they would have stayed in L.A. to begin with so IMO a return to what should have never changed would be the perfect solution. I know it isn't gonna happen but to me, that would go a LONG way in making things right again. If the new uni's look too different (as Nike is known to do) the stench of the move will still remain. B+Y throwbacks twice a year might not be enough.

I don't think the move was hard to take. Many a poster stated they didn't care where the RAMS played....we are RAM fans. So it is more likely the move was hard for many LA residence...I think that is understandable. JUST like when the team moved back to LA, it was hard on many a St. Louis fan.

I also don't think the team was trying to erase any of their history. The color change in St. Louis wasn't much different than the several color changes the team did while in LA all those years. I had no problem with the change in uniform colors, as long as they left the most important part of the team alone....the helmet.....they were still blue and gold.

I don't see where anything has to be made "right" cause I don't think anything was wrong.

I guess we will disagree on this then 73. I am Rams fan too and will be no matter where they play BUT...they will ALWAYS be the L.A. Rams to me just as they should be. I am not from L.A. (are you?) but still the move bothered me. IMO, it was certainly a WRONG. I mean NO DISRESPECT to any St Louis fan with this post. They were great fans and treated the Rams well. Even through all those losing years.

I don't buy for ONE MINUTE that Georgia didn't want to "distance herself" from the L.A. Rams. IMO, that was obvious and the main reason for the change in uni's. Thus, trying to erase the L.A. connection.

Several color changes while in LA? I remember 2 combo's. B+W and B+Y. The B+W was for the B+W TV broadcasts. The B+Y was for when color TV's came out. As for the helmet, yes, they left the horns but changed them to SF Gold which IMO looked horrible. They were CONSISTENTLY voted among the top 5 BEST uni's before the change. While else would you want to change it up? Again, if there was no move...there would have been no change in uni's. We just disagree.

Kill shot?? Hardly. Opinion? Certainly.

#HelmetHornsMatter

“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.

“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
