    2004 WS Celebration

    I'd certainly be interested in one too. Will pay for shipping and donate to The Jimmy Fund (or somewhere else). I hope the pregame ceremony is shown in MLBtv so I can see it.

    NWSL 2024

    You are welcome. I love the history of the stadium. The main seating bowl was opened in 1926 and the first recorded soccer match was played at the location in 1893.

    NWSL 2024

    The Turf/grass issue has been talked about since the Timbers joined MLS in 2011. Real grass COULD happen, but it would be expensive to maintain. The field sits so far below grade they'd have to have grow lights running all winter to keep it alive. That and the water table could be an issue...

    NWSL 2024

    Thorns fan here. I got season tickets on day one, I originally had a pair on the sideline an a friend had some next to me, but he ended up not making it to many matches so he dropped his tickets after a few years, at that point I moved to the GA section. I dropped that in protest ticket after...

    A’s have signed a binding agreement to purchase land for a future ballpark in Las Vegas.

    Ah, thanks, I'd misremembered that it was a rubber mat on gravel.

    A’s have signed a binding agreement to purchase land for a future ballpark in Las Vegas.

    Didn't Fenway have on deck concrete pads close to the dugouts until Varitek broke his elbow diving for a foul ball?

    MLS 2024: It’s Leo’s league, we’re all just playing in it

    Turn on the RSL-LAFC match... There's about 6-8 inches of snow and more falling. It's glorious.

    MLB Expansion Watch

    I'm not really sure about rights, but a few years ago I was in Seattle when the Blue Jays were there. Downtown Seattle was teeming with people in Blue Jay's gear. I talked to a dozen or so of them, and all had driven down from Vancouver BC (or a suburb). As much as I'd love to be able to see...

    dirtynine's Digest - The Thread for Kits

    That's nice from Chicago. In general a single stripe across the chest like that is one of my favorite kit designs. The little bit of light blue to mimic the city flag is also great.

    What is the Minimum Level of Success You will be Satisfied with from the 2024 Red Sox?

    I picked 3 mostly for the "play entertaining baseball" part. I want to enjoy the time I spend watching the games, and not spend the second half of the season regretting spending money on MLBtv. Entertaining is also winning more games than they lose, so that will keep them out of the basement. If...

    MLS 2024: It’s Leo’s league, we’re all just playing in it

    I 100% agree about FC and SC being terrible, particularly for Atlanta and Minnesota. Both of those areas had long standing lower division teams with interesting names. Minnesota Thunder and Atlanta Silverbacks are both much more interesting.
