Are flowers and landscaping next? Fisher said the RAMS went to light blue practice jerseys for offense to "brighten things up." @jthom1

Heck if it helps them win, I'm all in!

If it helps them win, they can practice in pink tu-tu's for all I care.

I hope Fisher is concentrating on things more important than jersey colors.

Sometimes when something really bad has happened on a sports field, and you as a coach are trying to tell the players "we've got a 24 hour rule - lets forget about it and move on now" it really does help to change things up. I mean anything and everything; the warm up at practice, when you break, what you have for lunch, which doors you go in to the facility, what colors they're wearing. Little attention to detail like this. What it does is psychologically and subliminally "break" the link between the game last week (and the humiliating loss) and the work you're doing for this week. What people call a "change of scenery". I've seen it done before on teams on a losing streak.

Pat Riley did this kind of thing sometimes too. During important playoff series against tough opponents he would replace hotel towels with players stuff from home or change things out to make it feel different and homier and he also mixed things up in practice to keep it lively.

You're 100% correct about how it breaks a link.

Except that I believe they had ordered these a while back? At least that's how I read it. They had hoped to have them in last week?

Maybe not then! It's just a thought. Like I say, I've seen guys do it before and Jeff Fisher's been around the league long enough to have a trick or two up his sleeve for coming off a week like the last one.
