Let LA Be a Reminder Of Rebranding.....

Image result for rams new logo

 

Y-I-K-E-S!!!

I am in for an overhaul of our logo and uniforms as much as the next guy, but lately it seems like consulting firms "miss" more than they "hit" on successful logos/rebrands.

The Rams.... or is it the Chargers.... or is it a Donald Trump combover. 

This year has been eagerly anticipated by their fanbase only to have this released ahead of their new stadium opening. Ouch!!

Thoughts??

It's also about finding the right way to execute a rebrand. 

I'd prefer teams to treat it like an RFP process where they select 3-4 finalist that are then decided upon by both the stakeholder(s) and the greater community.

Tbh, our logo isn’t good. We’ve just had it (or some variant) for so long that no one really thinks about it.

It’s impossible to please everyone with any kind of graphic design project. Everyone’s tastes are so different.

I’ve been involved in rebrands before. I guarantee their agency submitted hundreds of designs and went through 6-7 rounds of feedback at least. Unfortunately, this is what design by committee gets you sometimes.

I don't have an artistic bone in my body and that looks like something I'd cook up if you asked me to design a logo. That's straight trash.

Yeah, it's like they took a basic font, made it bold/italic and then layered arcs of yellow over the right half of an A. Seems rather basic for a firm being paid millions of dollars on a highly anticipated logo in a market like LA.

It's like someone said, "Yep! Nailed the font! Now just give the "A" a flowing golden mullet and we're there!"

    • Hello, soccer fans [crickets, tumbleweed flies by]. The World Cup kicks off in less than 2 weeks and, well, 🇺🇸USA USA USA🇺🇸 and all. We beat Senegal 3-2 yesterday in a tune-up friendly at BoA, with Christian Pulisic finally entering the scoring column.  How will we do in the World Cup once our tournament kicks off on the 12th? Well, there are 48 teams (assuming Iran is there) and it feels like one of two thing happens: we get grouped for the first time since '98, or we make it to the Round of 16 for the third time in the last four World Cups. I tried out the lottery for an Atlanta game and struck out, so yesterday was as World Cup as I'll get for in-person ($285/ticket for like Norway vs $39/ticket for USMNT right beforehand was a layup).  The U.S. has a travel-heavy schedule in group play, playing in LA, Seattle and LA. Real road warrior mentality being built. Glad the east coast gets worse kickoff times for a NA World Cup than a Qatar World Cup.
    • Well, that's the thing. Drafting players only for their physical measurables as you are suggesting only really happened during 2024, and X unfortunately has become the poster child for that. To be clear, it's not necessarily about drafting RAS over skill, but RAS over NFL-readiness and/or a solid body of work. Lots of players show skill in college, but those skills don't necessarily translate to the NFL for a multitude of reasons. But, getting back to the main point, to be clear, I believe that our FO is still enamored with physical gifts (who wouldn't be?), but now they're letting Dr. Eric Eager's proprietary system--his "secret sauce" prioritize the players that the Panthers draft, and it seems like it weighs not only a solid body of work, relative to a college career of course, but consistent gradual improvement as evidenced by production pretty highly. 
    • Its a good article about how pathetically bad our past drafts ('23 and '24) have been. Building the team in '23 since we weren't ready yet and taking your qb in '24 made so much more sense in hindsight. Ladd McConkey over XL is pretty much a given but not sure it does as much to change Bryce's trajectory as the author suggests.  As bad as '23 and '24 drafts were, the '25 and '26 really give me hope.
