chcarlson23 Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 So an MLB stadium problem was solved by taking out the Trop, but not the one we were thinking of… 3 8 1 Quote "And those who know Your Name put their trust in You, for You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You."

LMU Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 That sucks. The Trop is a Doubletree property and gets me Hilton points. Plus Robert Irvine's restaurant will need a new home now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrimalCookie Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Reasons this shouldn’t and won’t happen: - A third team in Florida? Really? - SeaWorld is a genuinely awful location for a stadium - The state/county wouldn’t approve that much public money, nor should they - Other cities have much stronger cases for a team Reasons why this should happen: - I would like it to (although preferably without the public money, and more importantly a better name) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DG_YouKnowWhatThatMeans Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 I'm thrilled to know this guy is still at it. I would love to know what the stadium architect thought when they were given *that* logo to include in their renders.

No way do locals go there on a regular basis. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burmy Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 Gotta say, that is one beauty of a ballpark they're proposing. Not a fan of the proposed team name, though...they should keep the franchise name and be the Orlando Rays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, they cant be the Rays unless its the Rays proposing this. Right now its for expansion, and this group has been around since 2019.

MiK Posted May 10, 2023 Share Posted May 10, 2023 21 hours ago, Cujo said: RIP the Tropicana Crazy. I just stayed there last week. Would be a little sad to see it go; one of the longest standing strip hotels, but that property is in rough shape. A shame none of the proposed renovations for it came to light. One heck of a location for the ball park though. 18 hours ago, DG_ThenNowForever said: Isn't that where Carrot Top has residency?

I think this, like the Nashville Stars, is more of a name for the bid committee, not necessarily the name that the actual team would be called. Like how Olympic bid committees have separate logos from what the host city's official Olympic logo ends up being. 1 Quote "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."

Right now its for expansion, and this group has been around since 2019. Florida can barely support two teams right now...no way they'll be able to support three. No, they should focus on trying to court the Rays to Orlando...as I said, their ballpark would be a beauty, and it's already looking more feasible than anything that's been proposed in Tampa Bay for the team.

WestCoastBias Posted May 11, 2023 Share Posted May 11, 2023 Orlando is such a meh city, are the Magic the most forgettable team in sports? The only way it happens is if the Rays want to move there. I'd rather see Nashville and Portland get teams, even Salt Lake City is a more exciting option than Orlando. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
