Rams considering change to new (old) uniforms
The St. Louis Rams introduced new uniforms the season after the team's Super Bowl XXXIV win, altering their iconic blue and yellow to navy blue and gold. Now, the team is looking to ditch gold/yellow and return to the distant past with its attire.
In an interactive session with fans on Twitter on Wednesday, Rams executive vice president Kevin Demoff revealed the team is considering bringing back the blue and white uniforms it sported from 1964-72.
A ton of votes for blue and white throwbacks. I'm with you on that and we are working on that as an option long-term.

It's not clear if Demoff is suggesting the blue and white set would become the Rams' primary uniform or merely an alternate.
Demoff also said ditching navy and gold, and returning to blue and yellow is a possibility.
“@ashaffe: how about we abandon navy and gold and just use the Blue and Yellow as regulars and Blue and Whites as throwbacks >> could happen

The Rams appear to be early in the process with regards to a uniform redesign, so it's unlikely the team will be in new duds until 2015 at the earliest (and 2016 is more likely).
