I stand corrected (on the sleeve part ).

Eh, it could. But there's enough history to choose a bad uniform before choosing this matching set of bad uniform and bad history. Besides, those sleeve stripes aren't workable on today's uniforms.

Well, that green is what I jokingly refer to as 7-crayon green (as in the color you get in a box of 7 crayons), not forest green.

MLB Stadium Saga: Oakland/Tampa Bay/Southside
Sec19Row53 replied to So_Fla's topic in Sports In General
You're not wrong, but that doesn't mean you're all right. I've been to Nationals Park 4-5 times. have you ever walked from Nats park to downtown DC? I have twice. Once because the game went to extras and the train didn't run when it was over, and once when we decided we didn't want to wait in the lines to get on board with everyone else, who coincidentally left at the same time as us because any mass gathering will take time to leave. Anyway, my views have been made. I'm only making my horse deader. Where mass transit works, fantastic. Where it doesn't work, fantastic as well. I like more grey and less black/white.- 3,839 replies

MLB Stadium Saga: Oakland/Tampa Bay/Southside
Sec19Row53 replied to So_Fla's topic in Sports In General
Just curious--do you expect 25-30,000 people to magically leave the same place at the same time? Of course we all drove to the game, as there's this institution known as tailgating. I've only known one local to complain about leaving the game. I'm sure there's more. If the team went back to the ceremonial opening and closing of the roof, it might lag the times of people leaving. I guess it's what I expect having grown up going to Lambeau. It's gonna take time to leave. Oh well??- 3,839 replies

So where those things don't already exist, who pays for them? And why? Four stadia in Wisconsin come to mind for this discussion. Lambeau Field, Camp Randall, American Family Filed, and Fiserv Forum. I *guess* I could drive to a park and ride a half mile from AmFam to catch a bus. But if I've driven that far, why not go the next half mile? I don't believe there's anything for Lambeau. If there is, how am I going to bring my grill and cooler to tailgate?- 3,839 replies

Or, get out of the corridor in which you live and see that there are other ways to look at it.- 3,839 replies

The forum header for the General category of the boards reads 'forums_forum_68_desc'. I am pretty sure it used to read something like 'the official forum of the sports ecyclopedia'. Since it no longer is - why not give it a name or get rid of the description? -

I would bet that isn't out of the ordinary to even below average. Part of the appeal of Miller Park to Wisconsin residents was knowing the game would be played due to the roof. The five counties of Ozaukee, Waukesha, Milwaukee, Washington and Racine all paid the stadium tax, and all get ticket deals during a particular weekend. I can'find an exact answer to travel time. But I did find a quote from Rick Schlesinger of the Brewers who said the roof made the team a regional draw. I'll keep looking for that answer. Regardless it all affects us the way we choose to be affected. What's normal for one location isn't normal for others. If 40 minute travel time isn't acceptable in a location, then management screwed up with stadium location.- 3,839 replies

But not everyone shares this feeling. I went to the Trop because I was in Clearwater for a conference in May 2018. I guess it was like a 45 minute drive. No big deal - I have a 35 minute drive to get to Miller Park. Again - that's just me. But also, the dominant highway culture doesn't bother everyone in the same way it seems to bother you. Is the Trop more like an arena than a baseball park? Heck yeah.- 3,839 replies

Am I the only one who tunes into ESPN to watch live sports, and never any other time? I think since Sunday Night Countdown jumped the shark back when it was acceptable to use the phrase 'jump the shark', that's my only use for ESPN.

It looks like the link back to the mothership from the boards hasn't migrated to the new board skin. Or am I missing it? -
Very true. If I go back to the beginning of this, I could be convinced that there is too much black used in the alternate (pretty obvious statement, I think, but bear with me). All that black hides the green, and doesn't allow for contrast. That may be where we were actually in agreement initially. All that said, I'd still prefer 'no black' as opposed to 'some black', as I don't think it's needed in the Jets' uniform.
-
I'm not actually sure that I would expect this to be on their website. Lower tier sports don't want to publicize their failings. The website is what is accessed by the masses, but the Twitter feed is accessed by those looking for more detail (IMO). Thus, let those who are diging deeper find it, and the casual fan won't know.
-
Totally agree. But the Jets green is bright enough that it doesn't need black to pop, it pops all on its own. wow - do I hate 'pop'.
