So the PLL has supporters groups with their own logos

@Germanshepherd It was very odd to see. Especially since the scorebug in other CBSSN broadcasts for other sports has never stood out to me as much as it did for the PVF game last night.

Good showing for their first TV match. Decent crowd showed up in GR, plus a five set match!

From what I could tell #13 from GR was the only one on her team wearing a sleeveless jersey.

The presentation on CBS Sports Network is pretty good. Not a fan of the placement of their scorebug though. I'll try to find a screenshot of it later.

Browns need to just make either the elf or the dog their official logo.

PVF's first TV game is tonight on CBS Sports Network. Hoping for a good crowd turnout in Grand Rapids.

LOVB still signing more players to their league.

LOVB has been signing a lot of international players compared to PVF. Leads me to believe LOVB will not have the same limits on international players. PVF allows each team to have 2 foreign players.

PVF has put itself out there as a league intended for American players. LOVB may be going with a different philosophy of just getting the best players available regardless of nationality.

This seemed like a given.

PLL announced playoff game venues.

• Quarterfinals at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, MA 9/2.
• Semifinals at Shuart Stadium in Long Island, NY 9/8.
• Championship Game at Subaru Park in Chester, PA 9/15.

Many of the players have ditched the team branded compression sleeves that are paired with the sleeveless jerseys.

SN: I forgot where I read it, but I saw somebody compare the PVF and LOVB websites. They said PVF's website looks like what you would expect from a sports league, while LOVB's website looks like a Lulu Lemon ad. I don't disagree

That's all Dallas PVF needs: the local media knows that they exist and acknowledgement from the other local sports teams. 

I think at the very least the Dallas Wings will acknowledge the PVF. The others may depend on where the team actually plays it's home games, or if more established DFW sports figures join the ownership group.

CBS yes, but CBS Sports Network?  

I have Hulu Live and tune into that channel way more than I thought I would during college football and basketball seasons

Are we sure about that?  It's not going to be like the supposed deal with Stadium where all games scheduled to be broadcast on Stadium ended up YouTube is it?

I think CBS is a little bit more stable than Bally's and Stadium are

CBS games confirmed.

We have our first PVF pregnancy. Congrats to Gina!

Second time PVF has allowed navy vs black in a Grand Rapids/Columbus match.

Guess the Woods are rebuilding

Helluvan upgrade from games being on MSNBC. One of Beckham's kids is playing in it this year as well.

From what I can tell PLL free agency has begun today.

The Redwoods have lost a few key players. Sergio Perkovic and Jules Heninburg are going to Chaos. Garrett Epple is going to the Cannons.

Meanwhile, Colin Heacock is going to the Whipsnakes.

Purple and light blue seems like the best way to be distinct but mass-appeal: navy is overdone, and prioritizing pink might get accusation of trying too hard to be girly.

@The_Admiral With light blue already being Orlando's primary color, one could argue making pink the accent color paired with purple and white on the uniforms, while all the colors could remain in the logo. Would give them a nice middle range color in the unis, since the Supernovas shade of pink is closer to being red than a powdery pink.
