Or I would hope not. At St. Louis Blues games, Ameren Missouri (our local electric utility company) sponsors the Blues Power Play. It drives me absolutely crazy. St. Louisans don't have a choice on who we purchase our electric utilities from. They have a natural monopoly of basically the entire metro region. So why are they wasting money advertising at a sporting event?? Save the money and lower our damn bill. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why are they wasting money advertising at a sporting event?? Save the money and lower our damn bill. I don't know if MO is deregulated, but you may be able to choose your supplier, even if you can't choose the utility company. For example, PECO is our monopoly energy company, but I use NRG for supply because they always offer promo rates that are better than PECO's default rate. You can also choose "clean energy" companies etc. NRG actually bought the naming rights to the subway stop by the stadium complex. I believe other energy suppliers also advertise all over the place here Doesn't invalidate your point though. FWIW, the Flyers power plays have been the "PECO Powerplays" for at least 30 years.

infernoqueso Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 I was under the impression the ad patches would be similar to the MLB 150 patches when they were first talked about, but each reveal looks bigger and bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Rather than a patch, the Yankees should work the advertiser's name into their pinstripes.

Silent Wind of Doom Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 On 1/28/2023 at 5:59 PM, BBTV said: I think a Chicago script - sorta like the late-80s White Sox and early-80s Bulls - would look really good, whether solid blue or blue with a red stroke. Front number optional. With all its curvy letters, Chicago is a name that looks flat-out beautiful in a script. Someone should use it.

On 2/4/2023 at 9:07 AM, BBTV said: The Yankees lost the benefit of the doubt years ago when they gave in to the "special event" cap nonsense, then the uniform advertiser. They used to be a team I envied because of how much they cared about and protected their brand, but now they're no different than anyone else. There's a difference between special event one-offs and going full Diamondbacks. They didn't sell the Stadium naming rights, not even going with the possible planned half-measure of naming it "Yankee Stadium at Nike Plaza". We'll see. But for the moment, saying there's not even a hint of benefit of the doubt seems a bit much. On 2/6/2023 at 11:15 AM, BigEd76 said: New MLBPA logo. Lots of time (and probably thousands of dollars) spent on this one old new Why... why... why would they go with that stylistic, edgy-attempting, soon to be immediately outdated text? They just needed to do a few simple touches to make it timeless. Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(And also: I'm glad I got my Andre Dawson teal throwback BP jersey & matching cap back when I did—$140 total—because now the prices for those are likely to shoot up.) 9 *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly SDS doesn't add classic BP/Spring Training jerseys in MLB The Show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marlins93 Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 I'm on cloud nine over the Flashback Fridays for the Marlins. Long overdue! The current Derek Jeter identity still hasn't caught on for me. I think as little of it it as the day as it was unveiled. I'd be willing to bet that the majority of the fanbase yearns for a return to teal permanently. The shade of blue is interesting but not that interesting. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
