Rams Hall of Famer Eric Dickerson apparently agrees with fans who are unhappy with the team’s new logo design.
The famed running back is apparently looking to become the voice of those annoyed fans after he tweeted a note to those “disappointed” with the new logo on Wednesday.
“@RamsNFL fans, I reviewed your comments regarding new logos and share in your disappointment,” Dickerson tweeted. “I’ll be speaking with the Rams on our behalf.”
According to the New York Post fans have a list of complaints about the new design.
Some feel that the “LA” part of the logo coming out of the side of the ram’s horns look more “LAC,” which some say brings to mind the L.A. Chargers.
Dickerson agreed with that.
“The one that says L.A. — that looks like a Chargers logo,” Dickerson told the L.A. Times “If you told me that was a Chargers logo, I’d say OK, that ain’t bad. … The [Rams] fans hate it. ”
But, worse, some say that the ram’s nose looks like a penis. And that is apparently what set Dickerson off even more.
“Someone said it looks like a penis; it did,” Dickerson added. “That says it all right there. That should be enough for the Rams to say we messed up. We’re going to keep what we got.”
“This product will hardly sell,” Dickerson said. “It’ll sell nothing. I don’t care if it’s three years from now, it still won’t be selling because it doesn’t look good. It’s ugly,” he said.
Rams COO Kevin Demoff previewed the logo after more than $2 million was raised during a telethon held to raise money for the United Way’s coronavirus relief fund on Tuesday.
