At least you can tell these are double L's! Not the mess La Liga made up.

Just saw a man wear a Delaware State hat in Jersey City, and it was a non black man too (Delaware State is an HBCU)

Not bad, but the use of white hot will get Miami Heat lawyers ready lol

I do not think Brewers will go anywhere. MLB does not want headache of yet another tean trying to relocate after the multi decade A's and Rays sagas

Atleti's kits have a new company for their shirt sponsor, Riyadh Air.

Call me crazy but Rome Latinos

Since there are lots of Latinos in baseball and the word comes from "Latium" which is of course where Rome is

Saw it at ACME too, so it is at local supermarkets, not just Walmart

Off topic but are those new world feed graphics on the top left?

Looks like Charlotte Hornets

Noticed that the Niagara Purple Eagles have started to use their "retro" logo again on their website and social media:

 

No word on whether or not it's their primary logo again, a "joint primary" with their current one or a placeholder for a new logo...but I think we can all agree that their most recent primary would not be missed.

 

(Just using it for the audio...I think that elephant creature is adorable)

Hopefully they pull a Tulane here and use just the old school mascot logo as new full time.

The two teams that got no hit by the Astros last year.. they throw no hitters this year.

Yankees (German) and now the Phillies (Lorenzen).

I'd go with 2 or 3. Leaning towards 3 like @eRay

The US has looked a lot better so far. If they lose to Sweden, they aren't going down without a fight.

They sure didn't but oof what a cruel way to lose. A gut punch worse than what Tim Anderson took last night to the face

Oregon Ducks and Rutgers Scarlet Knights never played football against each other. Rutgers played the first college football game in 1866 and Oregon took the field in 1894. Now they will be conference mates in 2024 in the Big Ten.

Here is my prediction for a possible power conference endgame, whether as FBS, it's own level under the NCAA above FBS or as a breakaway. All four conferences end up with an even-across-the-board 18 teams.

 

A few changes:

- West Virginia leaves the Big 12 for the ACC: It's been discussed recently, and seems plausible that they'd prefer to be reunited with some to their old Big East rivals and avoid having to travel to the west coast for conference games.

- The Big Ten drags their feet and loses out on Stanford and California to the Big 12, who also add San Diego State to bring the total to 18 after losing West Virginia.

- Florida State and Clemson manage to leave the ACC for the SEC, but Notre Dame, feeling the pressure to join a conference has become to heavy to resist any longer, honors their deal and joins the ACC rather than trying to get out.

- The ACC decides to get into the Texas/western South territory by bringing in Memphis, Tulane (New Orleans) and SMU (Dallas). I couldn't decide between the last member; Rice brings Houston into the league, while Temple and UConn are in ACC territory, yet bring in markets they currently lack. Temple (Philadelphia) does, anyway. I included Liberty (Lynchburg, VA), but I think their recent success may not necessarily make them as attractive as some believe them to be.

 

ACC	BIG TEN	BIG 12	SEC
Boston College	Illinois	Arizona	Alabama
Duke	Indiana	Arizona State	Arkansas
Georgia Tech	Iowa	Baylor	Auburn
Louisville	Maryland	BYU	Clemson
Memphis	Michigan	California	Florida
Miami	Michigan State	Cincinnati	Florida State
North Carolina	Minnesota	Colorado	Georgia
North Carolina State	Nebraska	Houston	Kentucky
Notre Dame	Northwestern	Iowa State	LSU
Pittsburgh	Ohio State	Kansas	Mississippi Sate
SMU	Oregon	Kansas State	Mizzou
Syracuse	Penn State	Oklahoma State	Oklahoma
Tulane	Purdue	San Diego State	Ole Miss
Virginia	Rutgers	Stanford	South Carolina
Virginia Tech	UCLA	TCU	Tennessee
Wake Forest	USC	Texas Tech	Texas
West Virginia	Washington	UCF	Texas A&M
Liberty/Rice/Temple/UConn	Wisconsin	Utah	Vanderbilt

I would have a feeling ACC would pick UConn for dominant hoops and history with some of the ex Big East members, or Temple for the latter reason

If Liberty can get past the controversy they have of being associated with the Falwells they may have a shot because they invested so much and have openly said they aspire to be the evangelical Notre Dame

A lot of your names are super clever, but you missed an opportunity of a lifetime by not naming Pittsburgh’s d-league team the Erie Iron. The absolute linguistic chaos that would ensue on people trying to correctly pronounce it.

Lol try saying it 8 times in a row and fast too
