If you don’t take the branding with you a la the Colts, you shouldn’t be allowed to take the history.
They did take it with them. You even mention it in your post

Wtf happened to the Colts' aesthetic in the last few years? They used to be a guaranteed good look every week. Now it's all-blue, all-white, all-blue with an incongruous black helmet...??

To be pedantic, the Tennessee Oilers never wore THAT jersey while playing IN the state of Tennessee. The two years they were the Tennessee Oilers, they only wore white at home. They wore the blue jerseys once during the 1997 preseason at Dallas, twice during the 1997 regular season at Miami and at Dallas, and didn't wear them at all in 1998.
Wait so if they had still been the Oilers in '99 they might have chosen to wear white in the Super Bowl and put Rams in blue?? Now I'm even more mad they rebranded that year

All this talk of bad matchups, how about a good one? Dolphins and Bills wore throwbacks against each other in 2017 and 2018. They should just make it an annual thing.
Also that one time the Dolphins wore the white throwback on the road.
If you have a white throwback you should wear it on the road at least once per season.
The Dolphins should make it a weekly thing

The Philadelphia Soul are the team I most associate with the AFL

What I find hilarious is that the only real competition he's ever had in Kobayashi pulled out due to a contract dispute with Major League Eating, an organization that really has no excuse to even be a thing.
Surely, after decades of this, and ESPN continuing to highlight it, that someone would have figured out how to challenge him. How hasn't some YouTube/TikTok person not dedicated themselves to taking down the mighty Chestnut?
This is getting to 80s Hulk Hogan level of predictability.
Matt Stonie beat him in 2015

Yet the league let the Rams wear their white jersey against CIN, when the white was an alternate. And allowed the Ravens to exceed the limit of 3 for alternates or throwbacks many times. The league breaks its own rules.
Maybe they have a secret disaster clause in case of a team with uniforms as ugly as LA's making the Super Bowl

You would be well advised to drop this and move along.

Look. This is a tricky one because we have a no politics rule but also this decision by the NHL has a political impact. Our options are to go "you can't talk about this period" or let it go and play itself out. Given that this is a discussion board well... you can guess how we decided.
If you don't want to talk about it you can ignore it until it's old news. Or keep posting those reactions. Really getting the impotent rage across.
It played itself out and the conversation had moved on, and then you replied to a 36-hour old comment to post your epic incel meme. Also lol @ saying other people have impotent rage when you're whining about seeing an emoji below your off topic posts.

I wish there were colour vs colour games in the NHL. San Jose vs Vegas might work as one.
I get that teams don't want to pack twice as many uniforms for road trips but you'd think the league would arrange a few games a year where it was easy to have color vs color. They don't even do it for the Winter Classic lol

Then at some point, I thought they were the Anaheim Mighty Ducks before finally realizing they were the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim. I believe the NY Jets were originally the Titans of New York...and while Titans is an OK, albeit unspectacular, name, the whole "of New York" thing is just silly, in my opinion.
That's one of those quirks I really liked. The Spirits of St. Louis from the ABA did it the best. It's a simple way to differentiate yourself while only slightly altering the naming formula. It would be annoying if it became a trend though. Once in a generation is enough

Absolutely. I personally never liked them but appreciated their uniqueness and definitely prefer them to anything they've worn since. (Like the logo; don't like the asymmetrical stripes; appreciate the eggplant even though I didn't love it.)
The question is whether this opinion is unpopular (I legitimately don't know). Anaheim Ducks is a fine name. Mighty Ducks of Anaheim was a silly name not fit for an NHL team.
I don't see how it's out of place in a league with the Lightning, Wild, and Kraken. Even worse is those latter two are in traditional hockey markets so them having goofy minor league names is a terrible aesthetic imo.
That said, I like both names the Ducks have had.

Know nothing about golf and seeing this all over the news -- Need someone to explain this merger to me in WWE terms.
Saudis like those one-off WWE shows so much they create their own promotion and start signing talent from the States. WWE brass condemns them, sanctions the wrestlers who work in the new desert company, and says working with the Saudis would mean blood is on their hands. A few months later WWE agrees to merge with the Saudis and the Crown Prince's royal butt wiper is the head of the board of directors

Hope you don't mind but just for the sake of discussion I re-did the Campbell divisions a bit
Not having Hartford and Boston together is rough but there's not really anything you can do about it
