The Rams’ new logo apparently leaked online. It didn’t go well.

It’s a good thing the Los Angeles Rams still have time to officially announce their new logo, because if they are indeed planning on using a logo that leaked online recently, the team might just want to go back to the ol’ drawing board.
The version that had Rams fans and others fairly riled up Sunday features the letters 'L' and 'A' with what looks like a stylized horn sweeping around in a counterclockwise direction. Unfortunately, to many observers, the horn looked at least as much like a letter ‘C,’ and its component parts were far too reminiscent of the thunderbolt associated with the Los Angeles Chargers, soon to be the Rams’ tenant in a new stadium.

Yahoo Sports declared Sunday that the new design, which first appeared on Reddit, is “legitimate” and is “the new logo.” The team itself has yet to weigh in — a spokesperson for the Rams told The Post that they were “not commenting on any of the logos out there” — but it signaled that a major change was imminent in a short video it posted Saturday.

In January, the Rams’ chief operating officer, Kevin Demoff, wrote an open letter to fans in which he said that “this exciting time includes our new brand identity — from logos and colors to uniforms and helmets.
“These elements will tie to our deep roots in Los Angeles while also providing a sleek, modern look that fits with our new, world-class home,” Demoff continued. “We are excited to share all of this with you over the coming months and see our players run out of the SoFi Stadium tunnel for the first time in our new uniforms as we kick off this next era of Los Angeles Rams football.”
The wait to find out exactly what the Rams will look like this season may have just gotten a bit longer, if the team takes a cue from the reception online Sunday.

As some noted, the leaked hat design appears to be specific to NFL apparel pegged to April’s draft. Even so, a version some fans created that showed what the logo might look like going forward wasn’t meet with any greater enthusiasm.

Even if it turns out that the Rams won’t actually be adopting the leaked logo — or, perhaps, especially if it appears the team saw the negative reaction and decided to scrap the new design — the episode Sunday was reminiscent of one involving the Chargers in 2017. As part of their move from San Diego to Los Angeles, the Chargers reportedly created a logo featuring the letters “LA” with a lightning bolt emerging to the right.
That did not go over well in the Twitterverse, and the Chargers quickly rolled out an entirely different logo that spelled out “Los Angeles Chargers,” with no lightning bolt.

Another reason the Rams might opt to go with a design that at least strongly resembles the one they have been using is that their new, $5 billion stadium appears to be shaped similarly to the old logo.
As mentioned, though, they will share that stadium with the Chargers, so with all the money being dropped on that project, perhaps the new logo is meant to also be shared by both teams as a cost-saving measure. That might really be the best explanation for a radical redesign that left many fans otherwise baffled this weekend.

That is the same hat, so definitely photoshopped one or the other, likely both.
The Chargers and Rams hats are in the same position, same specs of dust, same creases in the silhouette, same shadow on the cardboard.
It's a wind up.

two great tweet comments in that story.
"I don't know if this is the Rams' new logo, but it looks like it'd be sold at a Walmart near SoFi Stadium for tourists who can't decide between backing the Rams and Chargers".
"The new Rams logo looks like it’s from a tv show about pro football and they didn’t have rights from the NFL ".

Obvious photoshop of the Chargers hat. Just look at the embroidery on the fake, rams version, and it is obvious. People taking hook line and sinker on this one.
Here's one that a Reddit user made ON HIS PHONE. And it's still so much better than ours lol

How do you screw up one of the best logos in all sports?!
Well, the logo might not be the official logo but it seems we can count on these being our new colors. I don’t hate them but disappointed. Would rather keep the distinct, brand specific look of the royal blue, canary yellow. Tweak the logo and the uniforms up a little but keep those colors. They stand out and are known as rams colors. It’s why I didn’t want to go back to blue and white. Lots of teams that have that scheme. Now we’re just going for a Michigan Wolverine knockoff?
I don’t know, like I said I don’t hate it But feels like they are diluting the brand.

Why all the fuss? That hat if perfect for the new stadium and its two teams. Interchangeable. You can wear it to all 16 games at Sofi Stadium and root for both LA teams. I can't wait to buy mine.
