    I was under the impression the ad patches would be similar to the MLB 150 patches when they were first talked about, but each reveal looks bigger and bigger.  

    4" x 4" is the limited size by MLB, and im sure some players sleeve size make them look larger or smaller depending on the sleeve.

    Is the US the only country in the WBC (or in general) with the rule that the canton must be on the right side of the flag when the flag is placed on the right side of the wearer/vehicle? 

    US Flag code dictates it, so it's likely the other countries don't have that restriction.

    Basically, yes, which is why I haven't even given a Milwaukee team in either the XFL or USFL any thought (see @Sec19Row53's post).  The revived AFL, though, I can see Mustangs III happening, if only because they can actually play in the city, where an outdoor team would need to play somewhere else and bear with facilities that, frankly, aren't pro quality by any stretch of the imagination.   

    I was actually curious is Fiserv could host arena football since so many NBA arena's are going basketball centric.  I found this pic with ice and I suppose its doable.

    I can't imagine why. The armed services have spent, likely, billions on marketing campaigns over generations, a necessity of needing to market themselves to potential recruits. NASA doesn't have that same problem. 

    It was because they couldn't prove the effectiveness of the advertising in NASCAR to gaining recruits.

    I really like CMcC and think he's an elite player (hot take, I know), but he comes off really dumb here.  They DO LET YOU HAVE A THIRD QB.  They ended the emergency QB thing, and expanded the roster to accommodate.  Teams consciously choose to not use that spot for a QB.  That's on the coach.  Maybe they should change the rule and require an OL to block a DL, then we're not having this conversation.

    Then let the full 53 man roster dress for every game.  To me it's odd that while all teams have a 53 man active roster, only 47-48 are truly active on a gameday roster.

  6. Kevin Weekes reports this.  I know an outdoor game in Florida has been investigated for feasibility, so it will be interesting to see how it pans out.  Not surprising it may involve the Panthers.  That TB-FLA rivalry is definitely on the upswing.

    It's amazing how much sports merchandizing has gone to crap since the fanatics monopoly. Seems the only jerseys you can get with a Super Bowl patch anywhere are crappy gray fashion jerseys. Jerseys the teams are actually wearing are nowhere to be found.

     

    Not sure if it's a Fanatics problem or a Nike problem, but its so stupid either way. And I'd be pissed if I was a fan of either of those teams looking for one.

    Look again, found these on the NFLshop site.  They mightve sold out of the Mahomes red Super Bowl jersey and Eagles jerseys?

    - Ads must appear in team colors

    Unfortunately this is likely not a possibiliy for most companies, as branding rules for company logos exist.  Usualy colors cannot be modified from a businesses primary colors, unless its adjusted to black and white.

    Doubt they bring it back there again though. IDK if Hawaii even has a suitable stadium anymore. 

    Last I heard Aloha stadium had been condemned 

    They're working to build a replacement from what I understand, could open in 2027.  UH is playing on campus in a 17k seat stadium until things iron themselves out.

  10. In regards to the Marlins pinstripes, if these are throwback pants/jerseys I'm curious why send them to Jupiter for spring training.  Unless theyre having a throwback to the 20th anniversary of the beginning of Marlins spring training in Jupiter (2003 was the first season after the Expos and Marlins swapped spring sites because of the sale to Jeffrey Loria).

    They're massive. And on BOTH sleeves??

     

    FU MLB

     

    🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

    No. Simmer down.

     

    It's not both sleeves.  Pitchers can opt to have it on their non-throwing arm if the primary side sleeve is their throwing side.

     

    Position players might have this option if they bat left or right, but either way every player will have 1 ad patch.

    the entire USA set needs an update. it's truly terrible.

     

    btw, if MLB wants to make this a global showcase, how about some promotion? the tournament starts in just over a month. let's see some unis! and MLB has virtually no merch available. nuts.

    Thats about normal for MLB merch too.  Usually the spring training gear is released in February, so with WBC rosters set to come out next week or so, the gear probably isnt far behind.
