  1. Agreed. If this is the name that wins, they should take a page out of the Kraken playbook and not make the Yeti the focal point. Hide him like the Kraken do and make him mysterious.
  2. It's better than the previous flag, but pretty despised locally.
  3. I don't mind the Pacers/Bucks color vs. color match-ups, but yeah ... there needs to be some general playoff rules in the NBA. No City or Throwback Editions during the playoffs. No Association (or white) Edition worn by the road team. Color vs. Color is cool during the first couple of rounds. Conference and NBA Finals should be strictly White at Home and Color on Road.
  4. I'm a little surprised that they didn't give the Jets 2.0 the Jets 1.0 history. Maybe they would in 5 years if the Coyotes don't come back? Yeah, I have many questions here as well.
  5. Not that it helps the case for the name, but seagulls eat trash. Here in Utah you're more likely to see seagulls at the dump rather than the GSL.
  6. Oh man, I am excited! ARENA FOOTBALL IS BACK BABY!
  7. Reason #1 why the Utah Fury is a TERRIBLE decision
  8. I am in this same boat. I am not a fan of the Utah Elk, but the Utah Gulls works on both levels of being the state bird and being the name of a past MiLB team. Just don't know how easy it would be to wrestle from San Diego?
  9. Yeah, that's a different sect of polygamists unrelated to the FLDS. The Kingston Clan is definitely as messed up as the Jeffs/FLDS group.
  10. I won't lie ... I had the same thought. Plus, Salt Lake City MORE so in the mountains than Denver is. Denver is basically Kansas.
  11. Fascinating. Might as well put some long sleeves on these jerseys and call it a day for next season ...
  12. The nickname is going to be "Utah" after the state legislature approved a funding bill for a new arena. One of the stipulations (same as a funding bill for a baseball stadium) is that tenants use "Utah" in their nickname. Source I do prefer Salt Lake over Utah.
  13. I agree with the concerns, however, I think it helps having both the Jazz and NHL team owned by the same person.
  14. Can they get any more minimal?
  15. I love the bright yellow. I just hate the design elements of ... well ... nothingness. If the design is based off this year's City Jersey ... meh.
  16. Yeah, I am a little conflicted with the name as well. I think it works out okay for a few reasons ... It's been 40 years since the team left San Diego. Donald Sterling doesn't own the Clippers anymore. There's not much of a demand for a NBA team in San Diego. Nostalgia points will sell some tickets. Granted, I don't feel like this would work in Kansas City, Seattle and Vancouver. But, maybe Cincinnati? Baltimore?
  17. 20 years? Oy. I feel old. That feels like yesterday.
  18. Build both arenas. Once Atlanta 3.0 moves to Quebec just award Atlanta 4.0 to the other group ... soooo Saskatoon can get in on the NHL fun.
  19. Being a resident I'd say it is pretty anemic compared to bigger cities. It's getting better ... if that means anything.
  20. I don't know why I love this idea so much? It'd be the most Las Vegas thing ever.
  21. As much as this is for expansion, I still think this is a play for the A's right now, especially if they can't finalize things in Vegas.
  22. Agreed. We'll now probably see a swing back to royal blue hues in the next 3-5 years. Something I'd welcome because Navy blue just seems too formal, serious and stale.
  23. Ehhhh ... I don't know? I believe in the past the main logo had to have one. But, now ... I think a basketball has to be in one of the logos within the whole logo package? Newer logos like Cleveland, Golden State, San Antonio, etc. don't have a basketball within their main logos., but do within alternates, etc. With that said, the ship ball logo is a bit too much in my opinion. It just feels forced.
