I had an idea for a Washington Generals concept that I'm not talented enough to do but I would like to see happen in some form. They could use Roman Republican military imagery (like using laurels or swords) so the Burgundy and Gold would feel more natural than if they used US military imagery. It could also be an homage to George Washington being the "modern Cincinnatus"

@Buc according to Wikipedia: "The nickname "49ers" derives from the fact that the university's predecessor—Charlotte Center of the University of North Carolina (CCUNC – established in 1946) was saved from being shut down by the state in 1949 by Bonnie Cone, when the Charlotte Center became Charlotte College. Due to this "49er spirit" that Cone felt embodied the university, referring to the settlers that endured much hardships in traveling across the United States to seek fortune in the California Gold Rush, students of the fledgling UNC Charlotte chose "49ers" as the school's mascot. The fact that the University's Main Campus front entrance is located on North Carolina Highway 49 is pure coincidence."

ASU students getting drunk while watching a 10-7 OT game isn't reason enough? How else will trust fund frat boys find an excuse to get blasted?

Oops. I forgot about that thread. Could a mod move it over there?

Joe Mauer was a top 5 catcher in baseball history while wearing the pinstripes. In the gold drop-shadow he was a below average first baseman

As beautiful as the current Vikings uniforms are, Jared Allen and Adrian Peterson never looked right in them

Someone watches Jon Bois

I have a feeling people outside Durham that are casual enough sports fans to want an MLB team but don't follow MiLB might be turned off by naming the team Durham because they either don't care about or don't understand the history. I think it should be Durham Bulls but I think the best we can hope for is the Carolina Bulls

https://www.wfla.com/news/rays-offering-2-tickets-for-games-against-orioles/ Looks like $5 tickets aren't cheap enough to get people to actually go to the trop now that Stu pissed everyone off. Maybe he'll cite "lack of money from ticket sales" as another reason to split games/relocate

I can't wait for the Rays to return home from their road trip to an empty(ier) stadium. I want to see if fans boycott to tell Stu to :censored: off or finally show up to try and convince him to stay. Previous is more likely

The Athletics name and overall branding can fit with any city so changing it makes no sense to me
