  1. Site pages loading exceptionally slow using both wifi and lte, also logout issue still occurring. Seems to be browser agnostic. If there's any way to go back to how it was that'd be great.
  2. Post names with the photos. Not everyone that's famous to you is famous to everyone... especially hockey players.
  3. If there's any way to fix the search function so clicking "next page" doesn't make it re-run the search and therefore make you wait 30 seconds, that would be great. The way it currently works, it's not very useful to search and find if something's already been posted.
  4. @CC97 I didn't realize there was an upgrade in progress - as of 3:06 PM, I"m still being logged off every time I switch a device. I'm testing it with three devices on the same table and I'm seeing it log me off every time I refresh the page I was on before logging in on another device.
  5. Am I really the only one with this issue? It's so godsdamned annoying - even more so than the bull :censored: search "feature" and quote caching.
  6. Why do I have to sign in on every single browser I use? I sign in on my laptop and then I'm logged out on my phone. I sign in on my phone then I"m logged out of my laptop. I sign in on my desktop and I'm signed out of both phone and laptop. ANd so on and so forth. Every time I switch devices the forum logs me off from every other device.
  7. When I was a kid, I always heard the Eagles defense referred to as Gang Green. Every store had hats, shirts, and the players and news casters called it that. When I first heard it used for the Jets, I actually thought that they ripped it off. I'm fairly certain that every team on every level that wears green has been referred to as gang green when they have good defenses.
  8. They made black fashion jerseys with kelly-green numbers for the Eagles (I think they were Starter or Russel EDIT: actually I think they were Champion because I remember the 12 in Cunningham being in that font) and they sold pretty well. I think it was Buddy Ryan and/or Jim McMahon that started wearing black crowned caps on the sidelines, and it was the first time that black had really been associated in any way with the Eagles (yeah the trim, but that's all it was - it wasn't really one of their "colors".) I was obviously younger, but people (at least my school mates in the late 80s/early 90s) were like "whoa - they'd look good in black." Fortunately it didn't happen. Here's the Buddy one. Jim McMahon's had white pinstripes IIRC (and I'm kind of amazed that I remember all this.) The McMahon one here wasn't what I was thinking, just posting it because of how horrible it is.
  9. 1. everything is a repeat at this point. That's how this thread works now since nobody (myself included) is going back to read it all. 2. THat Art Monk pic is also odd for another reason - that's the only season the Eagles had twill numbers on those jerseys. Also the number font is slightly different than at any other time in the kelly green era. It's a little thinner, and the 6s and 9s are a little different.
  10. Chapman is not a Red anymore. His only meaningful prime-time national exposure came in another uniform, and if he plays well for a few years in NY, that will cement it.
  11. Kevin Dineen wore #20 when traded to the Flyers before acquiring his familiar #11 the next season. Mark Recchi wore #11 for a brief time when reacquired by the Flyers before returning to his familiar #8.
  12. find the thread for the bobcats unveiling back in 04 or 05. It's in there. I'd help you out, but the search function on the site is trash.
  13. So "we cannot and will not play there" but... they're going to play there until they find a new place. And, if I'm reading that correctly (I don't know east vs west valley) they've said that Glendale is OUT and they need to move no matter what, even if it's to another location in the greater Phoenix area. Right?
  14. In this new world that we live in, there could eventually be complications with a Mexican team (and its fans) coming into the states to play (or attend) games. Also, the players would be paid in USD while the Peso declines. That wouldn't work. A more sensible solution would be to put the team in Lima Peru. Call them the Alpacas:
  15. When I was a kid I thought that was a space shuttle.
  16. The first time I heard it was when I went away to college in western PA. Since then I've associated that pronunciation with the western PA hillbillies, along with "dahllar" for dollar, "arn" for "iron", "yinz" for the plural of you, and so on.
  17. I'm kind of over going to games in other cities* - I usually just take pics of them stadium if it's architecturally significant - but I would make an exception of / when I'm in Seattle. Both of their stadiums look incredible to me. *i went to a Yomiuri Giants game at the Tokyo Dome last year and recommend that everyone go if in the city. Totally different experience than US baseball. Awesome
  18. Which makes it awesome and exactly what I wish we had here.
  19. plus, doesn't Safeco remain open even when closed? I thought it was more like a cover than an enclosed building. Might be hard to make ice there.
