Mormonism is like if American exceptionalism was a religion. You gotta think they'd have guys in short sleeve dress shirts packing that stadium. turn it into a temple. They'll watch America's game in droves EDIT: not a shot at Mormons btw- 3,702 replies

I love how one of the richest dudes to ever become a governor isnt a cartoonishlycorrupt dude who shills for private businesses over everything else. not a singlepublically funded stadium has been a good investment for the state/city/ county that has done them. These guys want it both ways where they can cry poor, all while using their teams as a trophy. If you can't afford to build a new stadium, then you can't afford to have a sports franchise. PERIOD. if I can't afford the upkeep of a boat, and I can't afford a new boat, I can't go crying to the government to buy me one. So why should these :censored:ers get hundreds of millions for their toys? /endrant- 3,702 replies

Why are people talking about the Twins moving all of a sudden? Target Field rules and they're in a great location that's already connected to local transport infrastructure. I don't think moving to Bloomington would be a good idea. I love target field and if they ever move I'll be so sad- 3,702 replies

The Twins, Mariners, Giants, Dodgers, and Cardinals, just to name a few, better get to the suburbs or roll the dice on smaller markets. Don't you know thatMinneapolis is still burning and a war zone? At least that's what my relatives from outstate that only ever go to Fargo and Sioux Falls say. I for one can corroborate. Please don't move here so the housing prices stay reasonable Also,typing on mobile still isn't fixed? Lmao- 3,702 replies

MLB 2024 Uniform/Logo Changes
GhostOfNormMacdonald replied to TrueYankee26's topic in Sports Logo News
Probably the best you can hopefor without the purple and teal. They seriously need to bring that back. I love AZ architecture when it's colorful with teals and purples. The red and black and sand just screams "suburban sprawl." The worst of AZ is found in the sandy, lifeless suburbs, the best is found in the small nooks and crannies people have used to survive this desert for centuries. AZ needs to embrace color as a whole state. just the perspective of an outsider who's spent the past 4ish years in AZ and is preparing to go back to the Midwest -

8 hours ago, throwuascenario said: I prefer state over city every time if the city is named for the state Slightly (okay, super) pedantic, but it allows me to rant about MN history. TheMinnea- in Minneapolis actually comes from the Dakota word for waterfall Mnihaha instead of the Dakota word for water mni (where the Minne- in Minnesota comes from) . The original spelling of Minneapolis was Minnehapolis, meaning waterfall city. Named after the only waterfall on the Mississippi, which allowed the city to become the milling capital of the US. Also, someone please fix typing on mobile- 3,702 replies

GhostOfNormMacdonald replied to LMU's topic in Forum Policies and Announcements
No matter what mobile browser I use, typing is frustrating, because after a couple ofsentences, the thing just keeps jumping around, deleting random spaces, adding random spaces to the beginning of the post. I c an't quote people because it keeps jumping back to the beginning of what ive been typing and deleting it. Ithas really made using the site less enjoyable. It's been happening for a while, and I just assumed it was my browser. I'm not sure if there's a fix. -

It’s made all the more stupid that the team’s named after a freaking state and could just have easily been the Minneapolis Vikings if not to appease Little Brother Across the Mississippi. I tried to quote @LMU but the mobile site is messed up and keeps randomly deleting stuff. as a fan of the first two teams to use a state for its name, I'm fine with teams choosing their geographic marker As long as it's obvious what state(s*) the team is in * see Carolina Panthers- 3,702 replies

Honestly, if the broncos wanted to use that helmet after a rebrand and fill the white-orange-white gap In the uniform landscape that's been missing since the bucs dropped Bruce, I'd be completely fine with it

MOD EDIT
-
The helmet itself, in a vacuum, is fiiiiiiiine(ish?) But the whole look is garbage
-
In a vacuum I like them (My HS was royal blue and black). Do I think its needed? No. But at this point I consider anything that isn't a dumpster fire a win

So the key is using designs Nike didn't make lol

Can confirm this worked for at least one of my friends. He follows the Padres closer than he did before. Does it make sense? Not really. Is it necessary so the sport doesn't die out (as fast)? Maybe -
