    Their version of our Wrigleyville uniforms. The vast majority of them, like San Diego's, are at best unnecessary and at worst an affront to good taste Someone got paid a lot of money to buy some Hypercolor shirts and iron on some numbers

    Reds with the ultra rare “balk off” win

    We’ll always have the ‘16 NLCS

    What are these Padres uniforms?

    No surgery for Hendricks, but he’s going to be out for awhile. Enjoy your Leiter Jr. starts!

    It's unfortunate that the trade deadline has fallen into the predictable pattern of "good teams buy, bad teams sell." If the Cubs are serious about competing as early as next year, they should be buying, not selling. Trading of Contreras or Happ or whoever for lottery tickets or A-ball prospects signals the window not opening for several seasons

    Blackhawks love trading away young players

    Derwood, name one nfl stadium that doesnt host any big events that arent football related i'll give you eternity to find one You're quibbling with the semantics of cookie-cutter/multi-use. Fine. My point is that many owners want their own version of the SuperDome
  13. Derwood
    No, not every stadium is built for that. You aren't hosting a Final Four in an open-air stadium (which is most of them)

    Met Life is for all intents and purposes the vet or three rivers or the stadium it replaced: all three of those stadiums were concepted as NFL stadiums. a true multi-purpose stadium (such as Minneapolis's old Metrodome which was designed for the Vikings, Twins, and Gophers) hasn't been built in decades. A soccer team playing in an NFL stadium isnt close to the same thing...in fact I bet outside of the Sounders, there isn't an MLS team that doesn't want its own soccer-specific stadium, most nfl stadiums are too big. new nfl stadiums are developed with heaps of supporting amenities surrounding the stadium, Soldier Field doesnt have the surrounding area for that unless the city wants to buy the surrounding blocks to make it happen The new "multi-purpose" stadium concept is a venue that is primarily used for football, but has a dome/retractable roof so that it can also host Wrestlemania or the Final Four or the NBA draft or whatever. Teams with fairly new stadiums (or remodels, like Cleveland and Chicago) are now enamored with spending millions on either new stadiums or retrofitting their current stadiums just to host the occasional indoor marquee event.

    From #1 overall pick to being traded for a conditional 5th. And replaced by a guy who is probably going to be suspended for the season. Oof

    Remember when we demolished all the cookie cutter, multi-use stadiums? Now owners are tripping over themselves to go back to them for the hopes that they might get one Super Bowl or Final Four every 15 years

    Joey Gallo will be 29 next year and has amassed 14.2 fWAR in 8+ seasons. And he’s god awful this year.

    Should've sent Simmons.
  19. Derwood
    How does Simmons not score on that?

    Inside the park HR!

    Wisdom showing bunt? What in the actual horsefeathers?
  22. Derwood
    These caps are hideous
  23. Derwood
    Is he still on Curb?
  24. Derwood
    Bunts Lick Butts
  25. Derwood
    I don't follow the minors AT ALL, so hadn't heard of Morel before he was called up. Was he thought to be much of a prospect?
