Fusebazell Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 The astros stadium was named Enron Park before it was switched to Minute Maid Park. The stadium they played in before they moved into their new stadium was known as the Astrodome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEAD! Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 Yes! I did mention to unifreak not to set up polls too frequently. I just put one up today! So if I told him "No more polls", that would make me a hypocrite! I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fusebazell Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 Ok you guys are jumping down his throat for posting the poll but then you go ahead and answer it. You complained that it bumped informative topics down will your bumping them down to. So why don't you just give him a break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosox Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 I know this is a Sports Logos forum, but is a topic or poll about something else in sports that bad? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruColor Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 ...So why don't you just give him a break.The problem here is that this kid (yes, he's a kid) has a very long and ugly history of proliferating sports message boards with list after list of NFL realignments, stadium lists, and other off-topic crap. And frankly, most of us are sick of it. If you go to the Helmet Project's message board, Charles has even posted Keith's IP address on the header - so that you can easily see when he's posted.This has been going on for WAY too long...

Frankly, i thought WHO CARES!?, then that led to many more posts/polls like it and his eventual ban from the fanhome board. :laugh: Us "veterans" can only tolerate this stuff for so long. :: GMS on dribbbleErie Apparel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregchait Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 I am not quite understanding your logic here either...Candlestick & Riverfront are gone... Citrus Bowl hasn't been renamed, and you didn't spell Joe Robbie correctly...Corporate naming is definitely one of the TOP 5 worst things to happen in sports the past 10 years, no doubt... Comiskey would seem to be the front runner here, but in a town where most people are from/grew up in, a park that has kept the name for close to a hundred years, is NOT going to be called anything, but Comiskey by the faithful... Based on that I voted for "The Murph" out of the few choices that were given to me...GRC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TruColor Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 Candlestick & Riverfront are gone...Actually, the Niners still play in the Stadium Formerly Known As Candlestick Park... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintsfan Posted July 24, 2003 Share Posted July 24, 2003 An interesting side point here is how are these stadiums recorded in historical data? Minute Maid Park has already changed its name once for instance. The name of Enron Field will be pretty meaningless to anyone in say 50 years. Wisden (the famous cricket record book) deals with the growing number of sponsorship deals with cricket grounds by just referring to the place name, and if it has two grounds the old pre sponsors name, however so many of these American sponsored grounds are completely new! Just a thought!!! 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
