All of the Summerall-Madden seasons and the 1st year of the Joe Buck era had the red white and blue color scheme. It would be intresting to see the NFL on FOX go back to that color scheme in the 1st year of the Burkhardt era.

Thus far the advertisements for the Ravens-Cardinals game still has the Yellow and Black logo

Amazon Prime released their graphics packages for Thursday Night Football. 
 

I’m personally a fan of the package for “smaller screens:”

Very nice looking

If I lived in England I'd probably start planning for trips to QPR and Blackburn Rovers next year. They look horrible. 

If that gets the Glazers to sell it would be a win for the anti Glazers movement lol.

Warner Bros. Discovery, currently, has no college football contract. It would be so good to see Pac-12 move to WBD's channels and streaming service.

Would not be the 1st time Pac 10/12 games was on a channel owned by Warner Bros

TBS had some sublicensed games from FSN in the 2000s and those were Big 12 and Pac 10

Wait, a Yankees AND a Man U fan?

Yankees since 2000 and Mufc since 2010

As a Manchester United fan... damn... IDK what to say. Complete disaster.

Going to be interesting to see how this affects ESPN’s B1G coverage going forward. Will GameDay still come if ESPN has no financial incentive to promote the conference at all?

Rarely unless of course a theoretical all B1G NC game or if there are no similar big SEC matchup

last night, Chandler Redmond of the AA Springfield Cardinals became the second player in the history of professional baseball to hit for a home run cycle (solo, 2-run, 3-run, and grand slam in one game). the only other documented HR cycle on record was by Tyrone Hornes of the 1998 Arkansas Travelers.

 

who were also a AA affiliate of the Cardinals.

The closest to a home run cycle in the bigs were Alex Rodriguez in 2005

And Albert Pujols in the 2011 World Series 

I loved following this series, great great work!

Big Ten is close to not only be on FOX, NBC AND CBS..

Espn is about to not broadcast Big Ten football or basketball for the 1st time in 40 years.

Biggest transaction between Mariners and Reds since...

Good news is of course if there is no B1G-SEC seceding from the NCAA and it gets expanded to 16 or even more, more teams will have a chance at a playoff, especially teams outside the current P5. More teams like last year's Bearcats can dance.

Bad news... well.. That 16 game playoff might happen under a breakaway B1G-SEC league so a nightmare scenario for those who love tradition and seeing underdog schools make noise like March Madness.

Well that was an unfortunate series in Queens. Congrats Mets fans.

Rebound against KC.

At least Benintendi will get the vaccine so no issues in case this team has to fly to Toronto for a possible LDS matchup with the Jays.

Seems we will find out next Friday..

He is in Barca now but it would have been huge for the Polish community in Chicago if they had gotten him

Still weird not seeing Tostitos sponsor it. Could be me though.

This is what Soldier Field in Chicago could look like in the future.

The USFL only has one market.

Let's hope that changes in 2023 and they are all in their real homes. USFL will not last long in a battle vs the XFL with 1 stadium especially if the XFL gets the fan support they had in 2020.

What a shame the Guardians will not be back. Closest team to East Rutherford is in DC now. Oh well, GO GENERALS! And temporarily go DC Defenders?

Houston now has a USFL and XFL 2023 team. The only market to have both since NY and Tampa will not return.
