I think you’d be in distress if I told you my opinion on those tedious crustaceans

This also states Sacramento as a potential suitor https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2001_Major_League_Baseball_contraction_plan It wasn’t really Minnesota threatening, but more so back in the early 2000s, MLB threatened contraction upon Minnesota and Montreal. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minnesota_Twins Under the history tab it lists those locations as targets for Twins relocation. I know Wikipedia can be a tricky source, so I can work on finding more concrete proof.

YEESH.

The Original Senators (Twins) adopted the “Nationals” name from 1905-55. Would be interesting to see a set where the team kept that name AND stayed in DC in the style of current Twins. The Twins did also threaten to move from Minnesota to Portland, New Jersey, and Las Vegas.

The plan came about when one of the men read an article on ESPN about a TBL player saving a referee’s life during a game and after some research, felt it was the best level to own a team.

Davidson has a new logo

Singular (matching) gold stripe on the helmet and a burgundy pants stripe and its money. Simplicity works.

Wow! Perfect work on the Brewdinals! I’d buy that blue jersey in a heartbeat! Would love to see a Cardinals set where they kept their original Brown Stockings name and shortened it to Brown Sox. You’ve done such a spectacular job with each and every set. It’ll be a sad day when you wrap a bow on this thread. Cheers to you

RE: White Sox in film The Break-Up (2006)

Washington not having gold yellow canary on any of the pants is really starting to annoy me. It’s like they forgot half the uniform at home and needed something quick from a catalog

Absolutely. Perfect time for the Packers to update.

Love this look-

This version over those. Not a huge fan of the faux leather. Just wish the golds matched

Oh now these I love. Only problem is a feel the T would get lost on the powder blue set.

Speaking of Expos— Monterey, Mexico was floated as a landing spot for the team https://tht.fangraphs.com/the-franchise-moves-that-almost-happened/

• Rome Chromosomes • Rome Foam Gnomes • Rome E-Os

I hope this happens and the current black uniform gets phased out.

Official all black Terps uniforms

Purely speculative, but what if Baltimore swayed the Athletics to town a year prior to their move to Kansas City? The Philadelphia Athletics did hold their 1944 Spring Training in Frederick, MD. A mere 40 minute drive from Baltimore. http://www.historysharkproductions.com/living-united-for-80-years-part-i-a-community-chest/when-big-league-ball-came-to-frederick Also, the Mets nearly moved to New Jersey- https://njbaseball.net/the-new-jersey-mets-it-couldve-happened-maybe/ and Montreal seemingly had their eyes on the Mets- https://www.metstoday.com/9571/shea-what/will-mets-move-to-montreal/

Oh right, my bad. Canary*

Washington snaps Baltimore’s preseason win streak at 24.

Oh wow, yeah. I was completely oblivious to those. Props to the Eagles for being energy conscious. I was in FDR Park and noticed Eagles Training Camp was being held across the street.

Black “Terps” helmet confirmed https://x.com/terpsfootball/status/1693772185754862079?s=46&t=0jXPYtvS0Gmu8zJyrKx0hA

I wouldn’t mind seeing that red Giants jersey again if it were paired with the current white-with-red stripe pants.
