I speak for everyone here when I say:

When the coronavirus outbreak is over and all sports come back.

It actually happened twice.

 

Found a definite one: White horned rams vs Alarm clock Buccaneers: Only happened in 2019

Does this count? White horn helmet Rams vs 2000s-10s Falcons.

Thanks to CoronaVirus

My theory is that NBC will be rebranding in 1-2 years to look more like the Premier League graphics they have right now

Until last night, Last time the Atlanta Hawks won in San Antonio was February of 1997 and Nique was a Spur that season.

Eagles are the 1st team in NFL history with a 4000 yard passer and no 500 yard receiver.

Yankees 90s dynasty & 2009

Espn just reminded me of the buttfumble. 7th anniversary of it

Marty Janetty - Chuck Austin incident from 1990. Inexperienced jobber named Chuck Austin spiked in the head and gets paralyzed from the shoulders down. He sued WWF and won and ever since the company has only used experienced jobbers.

Myles Garrett could have smashed the skull of Mason Rudolph's head last night..

Manager in the right hat.

Manager in the uniform he will only wear at the introductory press conference.

6 World Series winners from 2014-2019 come from all six MLB divisions.

Say what you want about my Yankees but you can't argue the Jets, Knicks and Rangers got it rough.

Based on the NBA finals graphics

Well, we will see if TNT will change anything besides adding the new shot clock on the floor (2 posts above).

Similar thread was created in 2014 but is locked and I made this thread because I can add another dark moment in Yankees history... We just saw it on FS1. Astros walk off homer in game 6 of the 2019 ALCS.

Isn't Chicago State (not just athletics, the ENTIRE university) close to folding?

1). It isn't a cool city. 

2). It is an objective fact.

3). Those are both beside the point anyway because that's not even the issue. The SF Bay Area is just objectively a better area for, well, just about everything. 

4). Vegas is running out of natural resources, such as clean drinking water, and growing at alarmingly unsustainable levels. Within 50 years, Vegas will basically be the setting for Mad Max: Fury Road. Raiders will still probably be there, though. 

The sad thing is the poorer people who can't afford to move if the fit hits the shan in Vegas like you predict.. The well off people of course move to another area.

Wasn't Jersey City's gentrification a direct result of 9/11? I believe a lot of WTC tenants wound up moving over the river.

From what I read, the roots were planted in the 80s, but yes starting in the 2000s it really took off because of the WTC tenants moving across the Hudson. And of course location location location.

I think all that speaks to why I've always had such a soft spot for Oakland teams: it's basically a hard-done-by Midwestern city but on the Pacific Ocean. You could be writing similar stuff about Chicago or Detroit.

It also reminds me of Jersey City, a decent sized, historically working class city overshadowed by its brother across the river/bay (NYC, SF), and their downtowns are rapidly gentrifying because of said proximity to main city.

Part of the process for securing a new stadium is threatening politicians and fans with relocation. Sure enough, commissioner Rob Manfred recently did something close to that, warning Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf and City Councilman Larry Reid that the Athletics could take their bats and their gloves and follow the Raiders to Las Vegas if they don't get their way.

Here's part of what Manfred said, per what Reid told the San Francisco Chronicle: "The commissioner pointed out that Bay Area fans will soon be going to Las Vegas to see the Raiders and that unless things changed, Bay Area fans may be going to Las Vegas or elsewhere to see the A's as well."  Schaaf, for her part, corroborated Reid's account on Tuesday, saying, "The reports of that are accurate. That is the city that came out of his mouth."
