Fans troll Rams on Twitter for ridiculously wordy T-shirt slogan at camp

“Mentally and physically tough players who play smart & love to compete” isn’t a mouthful at all

Training camp is underway for the Los Angeles Rams as the team held their first two practices of summer this week. On Friday, they revealed a pair of T-shirts with their new, unofficial camp slogans on them.

One read “Model the way,” which is perfectly fine, but the other was, uh, wordy.

“Mentally and physically tough players who play smart & love to compete”.

Got all that? It’s amazing they were even able to fit it all on the back of the shirt without dropping it down to size 11 font. Maybe Sean McVay will use the acronym MAPTPWPSLTC to remind his players what he’s looking for day in and day out.

Naturally, fans on Twitter trolled the Rams for their ridiculously long slogan and some of the jokes were pretty funny.
