This was from uni watch and I'm sure it was posted already since this is from March, but well worth a revisit.
After reading this...You can tell how mad they were about leaked hat and how bad that horrible version really was a death blow to this new logo and how it ruined any chance for this logo to succeed....which in retrospect I can see how it just jaded so many of us.....that being said, Demoff did it no favors by distancing themselves from it and somewhat deceiving the fans with the whole "don't worry it's not the one from the leaked hat" line the day before the launch in a letter to season ticket holders.
Just as the leaked hat tainted the new logo and jaded most of our opinions, I have a bad feeling the new logo will do the same to the new uni.....
IMHO the Rams could save the new UNI by doing something so very simple.....
just leave the horns on the helmet alone....If they do that and it looks like the helmet shown during the draft, I think the new uni will go over sooooooo much better with most of us.....
BUT if they throw that tainted logo horn on the helmet, it isn't going to be pretty.Here is the article

Agreed, if they change the helmet horn even a little bit, things will get ugly quickly for Demoff. I guess we will see how smart @#$%& is...or isn't. Leaving the horn alone will minimize the new uni's negative feedback .
#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
