Gold is a tertiary color, at best, for the Ravens. 

Same could be said about the Vikings. Outside of that color rush uniform, they're a purple and white team with yellow accents.

So CBS doesn't want to fully devote TV time to this league until things get good around late season?

but the blue pants instead wouldn't surprise me

That would be the best looking option IMO. Not a fan of silver pants vs gold pants (or gray vs tan as some would say since Nike doesn't do shiny pants these days).

Niners vs Lions should be a good looking matchup color wise.

Here's PVF's schedule. So far they have broadcast for every game up to early March either being carried by Bally or Stadium. I'm trying to figure out what role CBS has in the broadcast equation.

I have never seen an NFL helmet get cracked before. Was it because of the cold? There's no way modern helmets are cracking so easily without some help.

IIRC a player on the NY Giants had part of their helmet break off in the NFC Championship game at Green Bay (Favre's last game as a Packer). It was another one of those game where the kept showing how cold it was by displaying water instantly freezing in contact with the air.

All the women's leagues want to use the "W" and it's a shame that, as a letter, it's a lot of syllables to add in there.

There's two US based women's pro volleyball leagues starting this year. Neither league has women's/W in it's name. Pro Volleyball Federation (PVF) and League One Volleyball (LOVB)

FCS championship

South Dakota State in all blue vs Montana in silver/white/maroon

Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!!!!

NLL fans on Reddit and message boards think this might be the last year of Panther City

So what is the solution there? Moving to Dallas instead of Ft Worth? Or would a full blown out of market relocation be the most likely scenario?

So the touring model continues? What was the purpose of "placing teams in home markets" if each team only gets one home game? Technically the Cannons may have a second home game if you want to count the game in Connecticut. C'mon Rabil! If the league wasn't truly ready to shift to home cities why put up the charade?

PLL Championship Series schedule.

I was a member as well and I remember some schmuck who claims to have started an actual football league he called "American Football League."  Everyone called him out on it, but he doubled down and tripled down on the name of the league because he said he never got a cease and desist from the NFL for the name "American Football League" because the NFL was no longer using the name of the league, despite the fact every team from the 1960's American Football League is still in existence today. It was this league:

 

Will Birmingham play in the American Football League? (birminghamprosports.com)

I mainly remember some lady from KC claiming everybody from the northeast was evil or something like that. Oh and the huge push for the Omaha team to be called the Zombies lol

So there calling it the United Football League? I was a member of a message board dedicated to the former UFL called UFLAccess. Maaaan, following the rise and fall of that league was quiet an experience lol

The Premier Lacrosse League is set to unveil it's 2024 schedule and venues on New Year's Day. 

The 2024 PLL Championship Series takes place in mid February, once again at the St. James in Springfield, Virginia.

NLL is in full swing.

College lax should be getting underway in the coming months.

Would really like to see the Panthers white jersey, blue pants combo with black socks.

California Redwoods was a great name.

This name has been reborn in the Premier Lacrosse League.

Have my fingers crossed for the Whipsnakes choosing Annapolis as their home venue.

Here's a better look at the jerseys. My favorite of the bunch is probably Grand Rapids Rise due to their wordmark being the most legible. Would have preferred if the league logo wasn't centered the way it is. That works on the collars of  NFL jerseys, but not very well for other sports IMO. They should consider make the numbers a little bigger.

It's been stated before with other small leagues. There should be no repeating primary uniform colors in a 7 team league. This leagues has 2.5 red jerseys in this pics. I know opposing jersey contrast in volleyball isn't as import as in other sports, but I pity the folks that tune in to see a Vibe vs Rise game. With that said this league should have clash jerseys in their wardrobe for the liberos, so hopefully they're smart and have secondary/clash jerseys prepared for such a situation.

So how did the PVF do their draft?  Did they do it the usual way in which a player who was drafted gets a baseball cap and/or jersey?  Or the asinine way the PWHL did it?

Don't think any players were physically in attendance, but it appears they did a traditional draft.

There's no L in PVF lol

I like the combo West Virginia is wearing  right now!
