Your worst days of your life as a sports fan v2
Red Wolf replied to TrueYankee26's topic in Sports In General
I actually attended the national championship game that year. I remember being fascinated by the idea of seeing West Virginia vs. Missouri. Instead, both lost and we got Ohio State vs. LSU. Granted, maybe my trip was more fun because the title game was in New Orleans that year and involved LSU, but seeing two schools who were historically almost good enough get a shot would have been really cool. -

The only way to know for sure is to get the entire NFC to conspire to let Washington win the conference and see if they magically beat the Pats. -

Cowboys would have won. Whatever deal with the devil the Patriots made came with a clause that said that they couldn't beat anybody from the NFC East in the Super Bowl. There's no other explanation for losing to Eli Manning twice and making Nick Foles look like Joe Montana. -
MLB Stadium Saga: Oakland/Tampa Bay/Southside
Red Wolf replied to So_Fla's topic in Sports In General
My numbers capped the population too high for Hillbilly Vegas to be considered. There's just too much data to sift through if you drop below a certain population. I'm actually training an AI to eventually evaluate smaller cities and make decisions on what to do with them and how best to deal with humanity in general. We're currently calling it Skynet, but that's just a working name.- 3,837 replies

The science is a bit flawed in that it's exclusively based on places I've been. Don't tell the other scientists though.- 3,837 replies

Despite being the worst city, it has baseball's self-proclaimed best fans.- 3,837 replies

We've actually run experiments and found that Las Vegas is the second worst city in America.- 3,837 replies

Houston Heat in honor of Harlem Heat who were actually from Houston. Atlanta Nitro because of obvious reasons. UAB can get in line. Vince stole my idea of naming a Seattle team the Dragons and there's a post or two somewhere on this sight to prove it.

Mod edit is the star of this thread. Also, Qatar can suck it.

How do I go about suing these hacks for clearly stealing my Seattle Dragons idea?

Well hell, I guess I'll be a Dallas fan then.

Texas Rattlesnakes would resonate with more people than St. Louis Vipers, just sayin.

Probably not actually important enough, but I could see somebody taking inspiration from that. Similarly, I've been joking for a while that Seattle will be the Dragons after famous wrestler Daniel Bryan's indie nickname of the American Dragon. WWE had a pro-LBTQ+ thing recently that co-opted the Warrior gimmick. On the one hand it feels kind of insulting to use somebody who had such heinous views, but it's also kind of fun that somebody like that had their trademark image used for something they would have hated so much. With WWE I assume it was an embarrassing case of misguided pandering, but hopefully it was expert trolling.

I'm more annoyed by a team not using an obvious geographic identifier. Sure, a team called Golden State or New England covers a large geographic area, but you have a better idea where they're at than Sky Blue or Reign FC. Same goes for pro teams using (North) Carolina, because then you don't know if you're talking about Charlotte or Raleigh. It would be one thing if it were a Minneapolis-St, Paul situation, but the North Carolina cities are pretty much on opposite ends of the state.

"Bro, hear me out. If the Angels want to take Major League Baseball to the next level ya need a swerve. Personally, bro, I'd have the Angels turn on Anaheim and Los Angeles, bro. They'd never even see it comin'. Ya move east and become the Inland Empire Angels, swerve everybody and just staht prinin' money, bro. We'd be off to da races, bro."

I joked that Seattle would go with Dragons as a reference to famous professional wrestler Daniel Bryan's indie nickname American Dragon forever ago. Make it so!

It's so ridiculous that it's almost like it's some sort of negotiating gambit where they don't actually expect to get two stadiums.- 3,837 replies

Hell, they've begged for at least Sun Belt membership. Granted I'd love to have them for basketball, but it seems unlikely, even if something wacky happens with Little Rock or Arlington.

It's a nice idea, but authoritarians tend to be better at paying the right people to do the wrong thing.
