  1. That thing violates about about 20 different vexillological principals. Tons of text on a flag, seal on a bedsheet, illustration of a building, etc. And it reduces the City of Green Bay to its football team. Granted, it's why 99% of America has heard of Green Bay, but the flag would be an opportunity to say to visitors and residents alike "hey, we're a real city, and not just Lambeau Field"!
  2. Completely agree. The Giants look so much better with white pants, and they match the rest of the jersey far more. The greys just look drab, and don't match any other uniform elements, to boot.
  3. The Hawks might have both the best home jersey and the best road jersey in the league. (Gun to my head, I'd say Montreal has the absolute best home jersey in the league, but I can't argue with anyone who prefers the Hawks' red duds.)
  4. Out of curiosity, what teams would you put above the Rangers, Canadiens, and Leafs? Personally, I do think the Devils, Islanders, and Oilers can give Detroit a run for their money (I'd personally put the other O6 teams head-and-shoulders above everyone else). I'd take each of their home sweaters above the Red Wings' actually - I suppose that may be an unpopular opinion itself. Though I don't think any of them can match Detroit's superb white sweater, which is probably neck-and-neck with the Hawks for best road uniform in the NHL.
  5. I don't think it's at immediate risk, as it's bringing in some revenue for baseball. I'm personally not a fan of having a one game playoff in baseball (a sport in which a single game is so dependent on one's starting pitcher), but I don't see it going away any time soon. My realignment plan would be compatible with the one-game playoff though - either have 4 Wild Cards per league and two one game playoffs, or have the first Wild Card advance to the LDS automatically, with the next 2 teams facing off in a one game playoff.
  6. I hate the one-game Wild Card playoff in baseball, and also think a 2 division-per-league format would be an interesting idea, so here goes nothing: American League: East (8 teams): Baltimore Orioles Boston Red Sox Chicago White Sox Cleveland Indians Detroit Tigers New York Yankees Tampa Bay Rays Toronto Blue Jays West (7 teams): Houston Astros Kansas City Royals Los Angeles Angels Minnesota Twins Oakland Athletics Seattle Mariners Texas Rangers National League: East (7 teams): Atlanta Braves Cincinnati Reds Miami Marlins New York Mets Philadelphia Phillies Pittsburgh Pirates Washington Nationals West (8 teams): Arizona Diamondbacks Chicago Cubs Colorado Rockies Los Angeles Dodgers Milwaukee Brewers San Diego Padres San Francisco Giants St. Louis Cardinals The two division winners and two wild card winners in each league make the playoffs. In the LDS, the division winners would face the wild card winners, with each division winner receiving home field advantage. A 7-game LDS would be played. Interleague play would still be required year-round, though I would have the overwhelming majority of games in September be intradivisional.
  7. YES! I've said this for the longest time. The silver muddles down the look, IMO. I really don't see a need to have Carolina blue, black, AND silver all within the same color scheme. On their home uniforms, the Panthers are essentially using silver to act as a neutral color, except on the numbers. The white numbers on the current uniform really pop out, as a result, while the rest of the detailing kind of gets muddled together, grabbing little attention. The above set, using the Carolina blue as the primary home jersey, would be perfect. (Well, I'd like to get rid of the tapered stripes too, but one thing at a time, I suppose.)
