  1. Heck, this series would be a hell of a pitch to redesigning most of the state's high school logos and conferences which are pretty non-existent or pretty bad.
  2. They're moving to Montreal, but they can't move with that lease right now so they have to float this idea in the interim. Plus, they want to make sure Montreal can get them a new ballpark and this gives MTL time to build it for them, and then they'll be gone for good in 2029 or earlier if they can negotiate out of that iron clad lease they've got down there. St. Pete is hilarious, they're sticking to it really hard without realizing or caring much about the fact that the team will surely be gone by the time that lease ends. Not that I blame them for not budging on building a new ballpark.
  3. The Avalanche were almost called the Colorado Xtreme. We'll see what they end up with. The whole not using Mets thing doesn't surprise me, but they'd better raise a banner for them anyway.
  4. This is me with the Nets. Was never a true fan anyway, but that resurgence they had with Kidd and Co for a few years was fun largely because they repped Jersey. They're of course terrible in Brooklyn, but I lost my interest in them when they went just over the river even though that's where they started and it's not far at all. (Of course, i don't live there anymore...) So I dunno, it's difficult for sure to decide when the move is still in the region.
  5. Can't stand jerseys with no names on the back. Especially in football.
  6. Was rooting for that outcome. Too bad it didn't happen.
  7. In his last year in the majors (2000) Doc Gooden appeared in one game for the Houston Astros. To be fair, Barry Larkin isn't PLAYING for the Nats. I mean, hell. Joe Torre as a Yankee in that case? Don Mattingly as a Dodger (which I do think is kind of weird) I mean...it's different, but it's totally different than say, MJ in Wizards gear.
  8. I would love to see them in Montreal as Expos 2.0, but I doubt that'll happen. I'd also be over the moon to see them in Jersey, as a 3rd team but I doubt Sternberg wants to pay the Yanks damages a la Nats in D.C. to Baltimore. Omaha won't happen. Too small a market for 81 home dates.
  9. Given Bud Selig moved the Pilots to Milwaukee to BECOME the Brewers, this is just tonedeaf. Most informal votes are Thunderbirds or Metropolitans. I imagine that's the direction they go and in either case, that banner gets raised because a Cup is a Cup.
  10. It is better than bringing back the Metro. Reviving a dead league name is problematic, plus it'd be the same problem if they go out of region again (ECU isn't metro) or whatever. This name gives them the flexibility to do whatever they want and it's a nice trick to force people to start calling them the AAC and to get them confused. I like it.
  11. Not sure AAA baseball is really all that riveting, but that's as good a realignment as any I figure.
  12. The fact the major outlets are ignoring this should tell you everything you need to know. The Notre Dame move, the Rutgers/MD moves all happened fast but under cover of night and not with tweeters just throwing stuff on the wall in the hopes it sticks. But we're seeing lots of it.
