The Whiners wore the Eighties throwbacks against us in 2007 to honour Bill Walsh, who died July 30th, so the years notice thing doesn't ring true.

The problem with that argument is the Niners wear throwbacks all the time. I'm not sure how the rule is set up so your point may still be valid but if a team only has to request a year in advance to wear throwbacks the following year, I don't see a problem. If it's more specific and they would have had to request a specific game/date, then I don't know how they would have got away with it. I seem to remember them winning a big game in their throwbacks and then wearing them every following week as good luck. However the rules are set up, the Rams apparently don't know how to manipulate them.
