NHL Anti-Thread: Bad Business Decision Aggregator
ManillaToad replied to The_Admiral's topic in Sports In General
This trend of non-name names is getting out of hand. It was stupid for Washington and Edmonton but at least it was understandable because they had to drop their old names like they were on fire. Now teams are willing to have a lame-duck year just because the owner doesn't feel like picking something. It really blows my mind how such a stupid trend can even become one in the first place -
Oh God they're going to subject us to a year of "Lol the Stars are playing Hockey Team " before we even get to whatever terrible collective noun they choose as a name

As an icon for a phone app, sure

It took 60 years but the Jets finally figured out how to put a plane and a football in their logo at the same time

It looks like the E has an underbite

I understand why the circumstances change things but Arizona getting to keep the history for the move to Utah while Winnipeg didn't for the move to Arizona is such a Bettman-era thing to happen -
Not only should they keep the patch, they should put the AFL logo in their endzones
-
That would be a good thing

Man I hope SLC doesn't go with some goofy crap akin to Kraken. There's potential for a solid identity here

It's not monochrome if the socks contrast the pants & jersey

Owls are dangerously underrepresented in sports branding
-
No I'm saying their logo should be your profile pic
-
The Browns and Rams should both have helmets for a logo

Guy who worked for nike says nothing is nike's fault

He did have some really nice paintings though

At least one of the cars used their hazard lights. Safety first

They were probably inebriated and decided to lay low until it's out of their systems

Bonds taking a steaming dump on two of the most important records in sports is a bigger crime against baseball history than Cooperstown not bestowing their highest honor on a guy who bet on his teams to lose. The Hall of Fame is more than plaques of inductees. The museum has plenty of stuff from Bonds and Rose. They just don't get to have a bust in there. Also the idea that the BBWAA is a bunch of elderly guys sitting around a fireplace conspiring on who to keep out is laughable. The last balloting had 385 voters. Old, middle aged, and young, and they didn't put Barry in because he's a cheater.

The HOF doesn't allow people banned from baseball to be inducted. Pretty reasonable rule

Don't give nike any ideas

Fields is not an above average QB and the Steelers aren't holding a QB competition. Wilson is the starter
-
Yes. They put the ad where it is for the easy PR and so that people would go online and defend their corporation from any criticism

Wideright's NFL Redux 2024-- MIA/BUF Added 3/16
ManillaToad replied to WideRight's topic in Concepts
The segment in the horn was the worst of the endless unnecessary changes the nuLA Rams made -
Note that this 70% does not refer specifically to patients who were at the game. Just a "majority" and "many" were at the game. The article also never states the actual number of patients suffering from frostbite. Just 70% of some unknown total. You'll also notice the URL says "70% of Chiefs fan" yet the actual title in the article is "Many Chiefs fans who suffered frostbite at bitter cold playoff game need amputations". Wonder why there's a difference From another article on the subject: https://www.npr.org/2024/01/17/1225209300/chiefs-dolphins-hypothermia-cold?darkschemeovr=1 Out of a stated attendance of 71,492 people, at most 3 had something (a foot? a little off the end of the pinkie toe?) amputated. Not quite as sensational a number as "70%"
