Do you think UCLA is lame too

I think ucla's script is lame because in the cursive its written as an actual word, with the U capitalized. Its an abbreviation, not 4 letters spelling one word

This is what I would consider the classic Rams helmet. Roman Gabriel, Deacon Jones, Merlin Olsen, Jack Snow classic.

I liked the feather only Redskins hat the best. Was used in the 60's I believe.

It was once worn for a half of a preseason game before any poster on this thread was born. If that's not "iconic" I don't know what is.

I was born......I a had one of those helmets..

actually they were pretty popular and well liked - league shot them down because saints didn't get permission ahead of time

since the definition of iconic is "widely recognized and well-established" than wearing the helmets 4 times close to 50 years ago is in no way iconic

I really hate the Patriots.

Not as much as the Falcons, 49ers, etc., but I hate them.

That being said, the Patriot snapping the football is one of the coolest-looking hellmet logos of all-time.

I can't believe they got rid of it, and wonder why they don't bring it back full-time.

ALSO:

The snorting Bronco over the large "D" was a MUCH BETTER logo than what the Broncos switched too in the 90's.
