  1. I loved going to those games, Showplace was perfect for that level of hockey.
  2. I just recall seeing the bull and the SA but not both overtop each other. and purple?
  3. This a new logo? https://www.facebook.com/share/p/QxJd5Bus6Bdm8Uw9/?mibextid=WC7FNe
  4. My cousin and I working as part of the retail division, my cousin managed the store in FedEx Field before joining the Army, toward the end of my cousin's run Snyder's wife was put in charge of the Retail stores, the team had close to 6 or 7 off site in local malls. Well, she decided it would be a good to change the stores to be merch boutiques and not merch stores because all the stores carried far too much merchandise. Not too long after a year or two, all the mall stores closed and the stadium store is now run by Fanatics. She was also part of the decision to bring in someone who worked at FYE to run the store after my cousin left and instructed that the stadium store, which had no more than 6 customers on non game days, to dramatically rearrange the whole store on a weekly basis.
  5. They all feel threatened with Amazon investing in (and eventually buying) Bally's Sports so like the networks did with Hulu (as an answer to Netflix) they want to create something that combats that.
  6. There was also supposed to be a Major GUI overhaul which hasnot happened yet. As far as the logo, its what everyone else is doing trying to essentially make a App logo and use that as their product logo. All its really doing is confusing the older crowd who rely on Pluto as their "Cable TV" and really dont know how to find access anything else.
  7. DC Posted the times and dates of the games on Facebook. You can clearly tell because the season starts 6 weeks later they have to schedule around DC United, so there are no night home games, and I am going to assume league wont flex times like they were doing at the end of last season.
  8. But since this season its been almost worse, I can totally see the crowds still coming out for this.
  9. https://www.theufl.com Website is up. Looks like it just links to both Leagues merch stores. Interesting part is the 2023 XFL Properties LLC. Gives an idea of who bought who or how things may play out.
  10. I feel the way it works sometimes is the team asks for a logo, and while the team is getting community/fans input, SUM separately hire some company to do their own logo independent of the team. These ideas are then combine, the fans input gets ignored, and then the league gets some designs, and then they take their one choice to the team and be like "Take it or leave it". I feel like Columbus (name change), Montreal (snowflake), Chicago (fire logo), owners did not have a choice this is what the league gave them. And part of the way to save face was those owners were forced by the league to take the bullet. I think the Sounders had enough clout to say NO to MLS/SUM to be able to have more control. I would say Portalnd (when they switched to the secondary) and LA (lafc) as well.
  11. I find it to be the least tone deaf logo that MLS has created lately. They finally made a logo that was not trying to be something more than a soccer logo.
  12. The NY UFL team played at Hofstra University, so they could use that
  13. Someone on reddit found out that they just recently trademarked "Sounders". So looks like FC is going away. Also why did MLS not have this before:
  14. US only, as our society is fickle AF with marketing. I think everywhere else has different artificial sweetners that they could use so what is there is not the same Diet Coke we have. My wife who is a Coke snob said that Mexican Diet Coke tastes more like Coke Zero than the American one does.
  15. You know the rumored legend about Diet Coke? Diet Coke is allegedly a sugar free version of New Coke, which its never referred to as Diet CocaCola, because its not a Diet verson CocaCola. While Coke Zero was anointed CocaCola Zero (Sugar) because its in fact a sugar free version of CocaCola. CocaCola did not want to name anything diet, sugar free, zero "Coca Cola" until they got something that acuatually resembled CocaCola.
  16. and the green was used to top on those closing screens at the end of WWE and UFCs shows.
  17. It looks like to me they tried to cram elements of both logos into one logo and it turned out very 90s Word Art. This can be moved to a different area if people dont consider this a Sports Logo.
  18. https://www.nll.com/news/national-lacrosse-league-refreshes-its-brand-logos-and-introduces-its-new-nll-authentics-initiative/?fbclid=IwAR188iCzv5dsm4G46EZuZThd-Iy3-OLIv7PUz2dC9EirwjyRqkVAy7q96Pw New: Old:
  19. The announcement was Season Ticket's were on sale for 2024 https://www.xfl.com/tickets?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=xfl-social&utm_campaign=season-tickets-on-sale&fbclid=IwAR0fbIRwNDunYskQyWLCIl-0iUEMerQhfx7LkRFLILBAFFfjrzlri2gc8nk
  20. All joking aside I fully expect them to have one next year using that all leather looking helmet wrap they used to have with the Darker Burgundy uniform sans the Native American patches on the shoulders. The already sell the jersey:
  21. But they kind of did from Reebok to Nike. When Nike took over I was like these are more Mesh t-shirts than actual Jerseys, like you said soccer jerseys. I loved Reebok replicas.
  22. I would rather see a linear type thing. Like a AL & NL for example, both Division 1, but just the last 2 place teams in each swap leagues which allows it to have an ever changing schedule from year to year. Its not really a demotion as much as its just a way to keep the schedule fresh.
