    I'd err on the side of too big. When the Phillies had a 5+ year sellout streak (I think CBP is 45k), it was nearly impossible for a parent to take their kids to a major league game without paying an unreasonable amount of money, and even then, it was probably SRO. I'd rather for major league baseball (and sports in general) to be more accessible to people, and not be big business for scumbag resellers.

    If a team needs to reduce their capacity to 22k just to fill it, that's an indication that there shouldn't be a team there. I'm not advocating for the return of 50k-60k stadiums, but something like what the Pirates have should be the minimum (I think it's 35k). It's just a minor-league look to have such a small stadium, and it really sucks for fans too, since if the team ever does get any support, the tiny capacity will just freeze too many people out.

    Ha - literally on page 1:

    cool story

    One less obvious player that comes to my mind right away is Herschel Walker. I'm not sure what his right team is - I'm going to go with Vikings, but I understand if people say Cowboys - but he also wore an Eagles and a Giants uniform (before returning to Dallas.) He was still in his prime (albeit the tail end of it) and great in Phila, but kind of at the end when he went over to the Giants. Also - why did guys wear such big shoulder pads back in the day? Wouldn't they want to be smaller to slip through holes? And have more flexibility to catch balls (though RBs weren't nearly the receivers that they are today)?

    If you want people to use the search feature rather than start new topics, maybe make it so you don't have to wait a whole minute between searches if you want to fine-tune your criteria. It's ridiculous. Not only that, the last few times I've tried to use it, it tells me "wait 1 second before searching again" and then "wait 14 seconds" and then 11, then back to 14, which is it? Are people really bogging down the system by searching too frequently?

    That's fascinating. Almost impossible to believe.

    Really? I didn't know that. Any reason why? Is there already a national competitor that they couldn't unseat?

    Not sure how all of those are "associated with failure". The WFL? Is that logo really associated with failure? Was the WFL truly considered a failure? I don't know the story behind the Target one - help me out? The 2020 NFL Draft? First, it's the same logo that's been used for lots of drafts, so hardly associated with just 2020. I don't consider the date a significant part of the design. Second, it's the highest rated draft ever, and is receiving a ton of praise, and at worst, has inspired a lot of discussion.

    Now I’m getting hijacked by things that say that malware has been put on my phone by adult sites, and I need to install something on my iPhone. It’s clearly a scam. I do not have any issues like the ones that I and other people report here on absolutely any other site I visit. None.

    Yes. I think sometimes the ad at the top of the screen changes between really big ones and smaller ones, and makes the screen jump a lot. I can't tell you how many times I've clicked on the wrong thing because the screen jumped right as I was about to click. It's that way on mobile too.
  12. BBTV
    Yeah that started happening again too.

    I've been getting the Chrome "aw snap" message a lot lately with this site. I updated chrome and cleared cache, and it's still occurring. Started yesterday evening.

    If it was a "prototype", why would it have retail tags?

    Can't believe how much better those jerseys look without the white outline. Wish other teams would get the hint.

    If you did a shot for every time GDAWG mentioned Vince McMahon in a post, you'd be dead 10x over.

    Frankly, anyone that thinks that uniforms need some ad or supplier mark, and look better with than without, should resign from the forum. There's opinions and then there's just craziness.

    He's good, but is any announcer worth that much? Even with the sick money that the TV deal's generate? Is the audience going to plummet if they put me in there as the lead color guy? People aren't going to be like "well, I'm not going to watch the game of the week because BBTV is the color guy". You could literally put a robot in there and the ratings would stay the same.

    IT's relative. CBP is around 44k and I think that works for them. Making it smaller is like saying that you don't expect to often have good teams. Making it bigger is like saying you always expect to be a contender. That might work for some teams, but I think 44 is the sweet spot for the Phillies. The downside is that when they're good, the secondary market is obscene because they'll sell out 5 or more straight seasons. The good side is that when they're usually bad, even 25k doesn't look too bad in a 44k park (except when most of the premium seats behind home plate are empty - that's certainly not a good look.

    BBTV saw, whilst sitting on a bench sipping cappucino in Riga Latvia, a Dinamo Riga team bus with Arturs Irbe's (among others') image on the side pass in front of him. Not certain but pretty sure that Irbe was the first of said Latvian goalies.

    That's not how it works. Unless it's in the contract, it's not like those companies own the designs or individual team branding. They do what the league tells them to, and just slap their logo on it. The league can leverage their in-house design teams, but I'm not sure why they'd want to when they just made a sizeable investment in branding.

    This isn't getting enough likes. Why the underscores?

    Not sure how you expect anyone to answer if you don’t post the proposed name.

    Of course he's going to say that. He has to. Either Tampa will et scarred and pony up for a full-time park, Montreal will get excited and just build something that would allow them to have the team full time, or it actually happens and becomes a case study. I doubt that any of them actually think the split-season thing will work, but the more they support it, the more likely the local gorernments will seize the opportunity to build a new dome stadium.
