  1. Look at the area on Google Maps today: There’s almost no evidence of it, aside from being a large field in a forested area.
  2. Even if it was the motive, it should have stuck (especially after 2002).
  3. It's hardly the same. Anaheim is a legitimate city name for a team. Look at the Ducks and don't give me that "but hockey" is different crap.
  4. In all seriousness, it’s fun to have a goofy Habs concept that does some crazy stuff.
  5. Well, I paired Kelly and red together before in a “no touch” design. Unpopular opinion: I love the “tincture” designs, where colors don’t touch colors and metals don’t touch metals.
  6. Nope, I think it really is better-looking. Like, the dark green is good, but Kelly is infinitely better.
  7. Likewise, I look at the dark green and all I see is a team of failures and depression. The light green is so much better-looking for them.
  8. The Kelly Green A’s were a dynasty, the Forest Green A’s have never won a title that wasn’t surrounded by death and destruction. Kelly Green is a “happy” color, while the darker green is just a reminder of how far the franchise has fallen and how they can never win a winner-take-all game. Heck, the cursive script is an intentional callback to the days when the team was an unofficial Yankee farm club in Kansas City. #BringBacktheKelly #DitchtheScript
  9. It beats my idea for the Anchorage Chargers and using sinkholes to eliminate Marlins Park and The Trop.
  10. Retroactive: Every day in the 1996 season that the SF Giants employed one Melvin Hall Jr. - who might be the single most repugnant man to ever play the game. Ty Cobb didn’t do whatever da fuq this is: ...more: ...yes, there’s more: The Giants knew about his past (e.g., he had to be smuggled into Canada, because of some prior shadiness), but they still had him as a pinch-hitter. It’s easily the most disgusted I’ve been at my team, learning that they did that.
  11. I hear them in the Bay Area whenever I’m visiting there and listening to sports talk radio.
  12. Eye stuff freaks me out - Big Van Vader vs. Stan Hansen (warning) :
  13. Ugh, I'm trying to get the Saint Seiya OP out of my head. Pegasasu fantaji so sa yume dake wa / Dare mo ubaenai kokoro no tsubasa dakara... Either way, Radom made the best of an awful name and ownership's demands.
  14. I've always thought that Detroit Pistons’ primary mark was supposed to look like a stylized top of a piston head, not a basketball.
  15. Mr. BucFan has said all that needs to be said about 2002, except I put way more blame on Dusty Baker. Of course, the Giants got to return the favor in 2012, which I love. The big one is 2014 - Sharks vs. Kings reverse sweep: This was the moment that kind of turned me against the Sharks, leading me to hope for a rebuild to purge the "rotten core." I don't think I'll have faith in the Sharks until every member of that squad has retired or joined another squad.
  16. Yeah, just because he doesn’t like a city and explains himself doesn’t make him “self-important” or means that he “treats people terribly” or “acts like a child.” If anything, you’re the one projecting onto his posts.
  17. St. Louis isn’t that awful! There’s one place that’s far creepier:
  18. I’ve seen how ridiculous the Mariners’ travel schedule is compared to the rest of MLB, which prompted me to make that observation. Besides, building a Seattle-Portland rivalry will ultimately make the Mariners more money in the long run, so their potential objections just come across as short-sighted (a phrase one could use for an organization that hasn’t made the playoffs since 2001).
