Actually the Genomes are no more. They were only stopping through; they were always moving to High Point, they just didn't have a home until 2023, so they became the "Genomes" for a season. So all Lexington has now are the Counter Clockers. God, that's a mouthful. Counter Clockers does not roll off the tongue. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No the Genomes only popped up to give the league an even amount of clubs until Hagerstown was ready. Lexington ownership operated the Genomes and with the sale of the Legends, er Counter Clocks, the Genomes were disbanded. I believe the Hagerstown ownership also owns the Frederick Keys so they are placing a team in Frederick for 2023 until the ballpark is ready in Hagerstown. 1 Quote Signature intentionally left blank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian in Boston Posted March 7, 2023 Share Posted March 7, 2023 On 2/13/2023 at 9:07 PM, Big Yellow Flag said: “In the meantime, we’re starting off the season with something fun that has never been done before—uniforms with question marks in the colors of the Maryland flag (red, gold, and black) and black caps with a sole white question mark on the front and a Maryland Flag on the back. We thought this would be a great way to embrace the mystery of the naming contest results until the big reveal in June.”" Why even bother with “the big reveal in June”? Just adopt the question mark-festooned uniforms full-time and adopt Maryland Mystery Monikers as the team’s identity. Unless you can get Jake Gyllenhall to come and throw out the ceremonial first pitch at your inaugural game. Then you go with Maryland Mysterios. Well, at least until lawyers from The Walt Disney Company show up with a cease and desist order on behalf of Marvel Entertainment… most likely followed by the suits from Sony, as well. Eventually, the team folds, the uniforms are bought by some outfit launching a summer collegiate team out of Bay City, Michigan and the players take to the diamond as ? and the Mysterians. Honestly, between this and the Lexington Counter Clockers fiasco, it’s enough to make a sports branding enthusiast chuck it all in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A new firm had recently purchased the team (who had been struggling), and they ran a "fan forum", essentially asking for input from the city as to what could be fixed...etc. I'm not sure anyone really asked for this however and this was pretty...unexpected. Wild how it came out of straight left field. Makes me think of the Seattle Metropolitans hockey team' s logo from a century ago Quote trueyankee26.wordpress.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green27 Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 The Eugene Emeralds have unveiled an alternate identity for the upcoming season, paying homage to a rather unique local bit of history. The TLDR is in the 70’s the Coast Guard blew up a dead whale on a beach near Eugene and it went…poorly. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sec19Row53 Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Lakeshore Chinooks will apparently be doing a 'what-if' this season. Announcement coming Monday. That looks like a digital camo background. I don't recall what any proposed names were for the team. Quote It's where I sit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The camo and the helicopter sounds make me think this will be a uniform based on the iconic CH-47 Chinook helicopter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
