63Bulldogs63 Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 This was so sad and kinda eerie. I took the 1030 am tour of angel stadium. Our tour guide took a phone call mid tour. Seemed kinda weird, but didnt think anything of it. Bout 45 mins after tour on way to San Diego got the email from the Angels in regards to Skaggs death.

Marlins93 Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 7 hours ago, the admiral said: Fish Yankees! I don't dislike that jersey, but it's easily my least favorite of anything worn during the Florida Marlins (1993-2011) period. Maybe it's unfair to say it is a Yankees knock off, but keep in mind that Loria was always so keen on emulating the Yankees wherever he could. Then again, the team abandoned pinstripes altogether in 2012. My issue with using the cap insignia on the breast in that fashion is that the Marlins had such a great wordmark (especially the 93-02 version) so it always seemed pointless to use it as an alternate. I do also agree with those who say that its design complexity makes it less suitable to be worn that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It feels like a statement in support of the honest accounting of history, coming as it does at a time when that important value is increasingly under attack. But for them to wear the road uniform does not make much sense, as they will be at home against the Royals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a recent trend of ignoring the actual histories of relocated teams, in favour of a fantasy version of history. This Nationals/Expos event is in sharp contrast to that troubling trend, and is in keeping with the traditional value of respect for a team's history. (This issue has been argued at length in several other threads.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quillz Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Other than some odd legal fiction like the Ravens/Browns and possibly Sonics/Thunder, there really aren't that many teams that deny their existing in other cities or identities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRoman Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 these look really clean, much better than the 4th of july caps of recent years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gosioux76 Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 I'd feign outrage over the Nationals using a Senators logo instead of an Expos one, but I really don't care enough about these ridiculous novelties to bother. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ark Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Good to see the Indians 70s C logo, the Florida Marlins logo, and the Twins World Series logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Orioles have only acknowledged the St. Louis Browns one time, and that was during a throwback game in St. Louis. The Cardinals have a statue for George Sisler of the Browns outside Busch Stadium. I wish they’d acknowledge the Browns 1944 pennant somewhere in the ballpark too. Not sure how the Orioles would feel about that, but I’m not aware of anything about the Browns on display in Baltimore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BC985 Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Probably would need the Orioles blessing, but I’ve always wanted to see the Cardinals throwback as the Browns for an interleague game in St. Louis. Lots of possible great-looking options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lahaye7 Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 as cool as these original Expos road ones look, I like the 80s racing stripe ones worn by the Raines, Dawson, Gary Carter Expos better. I am sore,wounded, but not slainI will lay down and bleed a whileAnd then rise up to fight again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
