Nope,there was at one point but due to reasons out of the forums control the option has been removed.

CBS Sports reports that the path to an NHL team in Seattle is clear: http://www.cbssports.com/nhl/eye-on-hockey/24660852/prospective-owner-touts-clear-path-to-bring-nhl-to-seattle Now to who that team might be....Arizona makes sense, but maybe the Panthers could make the jump. I dont see an expansion to 32 teams.

The issue isnt having duplicate account, the issue lies in creating account #2 when account #1 was banned.

Me too...after they were pointed out I still had trouble picking it out. I get not liking that feature (and I am not a huge fan either) but to call that feature worse than Jacksonville...not me.I think it's something you won't notice for most of the game, but then you'll see an angle where they look horrible.I went to training camp last Sunday and the stripes are only easy to spot when viewed from above, or if a guy is holding his helmet by the mask.

I almost forgot about this one, Greinke on the Angels:

Duplicate accounts only get banned when the dupe account is created to circumvent a ban for the previous account. I would just create a new account and act as the original one never existed.

On the name change subject, it used to be an option thru request to a board member, but now that ability is no longer available.

I actually think the numbers on the alts that cam to fruition were purple.

I submitted Beacons as an option...so I stuck with it and voted for Beacon. I think it'll come down to either that or Black Jacks.

wonder why they put American champion on top instead of fiesta bowl champion Because its a conference championship ring, the Fiesta Bowl was just part of that season as denoted on the side panel.Oh ok so their getting another ring for the Fiesta bowl then? Im pretty sure the ring represents the whole seasons successes rather than just one event.

Its worth a shot but most of the time theyre bots.

A good friend of mine gotme one of these from the Lightning game last week. Its just replica, but will look nice on my shelf.

Thats also a Diamond Era 5950 for the Pigs. Looking forward to seeing a few more of these show up this season.

Kinda on topic, but anyone know if MiLB teams will be wearing the Diamond Era 59Fiftys?

Nah, its more like 2-2.5 hours.

Tampa Bay is a viable baseball market, its just that the population center is closer to the Tampa side of the bay rather that St Pete. Use the following photos as an example: The red circle is a 5 mile radius and blue circle is 10 miles. As you can see, nearly half of the population within a five mile radius of the Trop (St Pete) breathes through gills while most of population within ten miles does the same. As for the Tampa map, it now includes much more landmass than the Trop location allows for and gets the stadium close to major area traffic arteries such as I-75, I-275, the Crosstown Expressway, as well as US-92. Also another point of information is the generations of fandoms from other areas who cannot give up their other teams. People like me (I'm 28) are the older end of the diehard majority of Rays fans, as we were early teens when Tampa Bay got the team. As kids grow up, they keep their teams so over time the Rays fans who began as kids become the diehard adult fans with the 25-30 crowd being the beginning of that movement.

Unrelated, but until you've posted that, I've never seen the Blue Jays' logo in 2D stitching (the big club used the 3D puff patch embroidery). I much prefer what Toronto uses now. That has to be Vlad in Florida on his way up to the big club. I know he had a few starts for Single A Dunedin and I have a feeling thats their home uni.

Anyone know how the foreign document spammer posted in the fantasy sports forums? I thought you had to have over a certain amount of posts to even have them visible.

Fielder looks sketchy, as the font looks off and the MLB patch on the collar is too squared off in the corners. Normally its slightly rounded. Kobe's number font looks narrow too.

It's not basketball-only. The Olympic Sports will be in this league too. Correct, the Catholic 7 Big East will now be a top-tier non-football conference along the lines of the Atlantic 10 and host all sports but football. The former Big East football schools will keep the slot of the BE conference for football, but all other sports will fall under the umbrella of the America 12/Metro/Whatever Name we come about with Conference.

Are you referring to the football schools, or the Catholic 7(+2)? The Metro name would be more appropriate for the football schools, since a lot of them (Lousiville, Cincy, Memphis, South Florida, Tulane) are former Metro members. Im talking about the football schools. The BE has always been a b-ball conference, so I don't mind the BE name sticking with the b-ball schools. Metro Conference works well for the remaining football schools in the following locales: Tampa Orlando Dallas Houston Cincinnati Hartford Philadelphia Memphis New Orleans

Hey, former Big East schools....bring back the Metro Conference! Most of your current teams fit the bill of being in decent metropolitan areas.

Not really, it's just Conference USA 2.0.....and this coming from a fan of a team in the new conference. My hope is that more dominoes fall ahead of USF, so that the ACC will have to replenish their Florida presence.

Great piece and some good points. I owned a sporting apparel store from 1994 until 2001. I haven't purchased and NFL jersey since then. The NFL can complain all they want, but expecting people to spend 100 bucks on a flimsy cheaply made screen printed jersey is ridicoulous. $100 would be fine for an authentic jersey. They want $300 for the authentic though... that's insane. Great piece and some good points. I owned a sporting apparel store from 1994 until 2001. I haven't purchased and NFL jersey since then.
