This is where he royally screwed up.....
A day or two before the official unveiling he sent out a letter in an email to all the season ticket holders talking about the upcoming logo reveal and said something like
"Don't worry, it's not the one in the leaked hat" technically it wasn't that exact logo, but it didn't matter at that point.
He basically admitted to his loyal fan base that the hat logo sucked, then doubled down and said don't worry it's not that logo.....
So when the logo reveal went live the next day at noon, we all thought it was some sort of sick joke, another troll job, when they actually unveiled that same lame ass logo from the hat?!!!
We Watched that video and kept waiting for the punchline and then they would reveal the real logo and have a big laugh with some dumb joke about the leaked logo....but nope...... the video ends and everyone was like WTF just happened???
After that, it was all down hill for the Rams on social media and KD went from local hero to local zero.....the Rams and KD have been fighting a PR nightmare ever since.
They are right, the hat tainted everything after that leak, but somehow weren't smart enough to know that was going to happen at that point? Really???
They heard the enormous tsunami warning, yet they kept playing beach volleyball.....
The hat leak was a great trial balloon to learn from, but they completely ignored the major criticism and stuck with it anyway. SK has enough money to scrap the epic fail and go to plan B at that point.
Hopefully the unis make us all forgive and forget the logo, as they can always change that next year once they realize it isn't selling, but the uni takes years.....they better hit it out of the park at this point!!!
But unfortunately the damage has been done with the logo fiasco and has left a bad taste in a lot of fans mouths, so unless these unis are epic, I gotta feeling they won't go over so well.
