I call for a 10 year moratorium on new uniforms.

Re: MLB Off-Topic

sports uniforms started getting off-kilter when the NFL decided to put their QB's in dresses.

maybe Nike should hire someone to redesign their swoosh. see how well that goes over. something like ___;’ or €
and change the name from Nike to ñïçćę.
I hear the guy who came up with New Coke is still looking for gainful employment

I wouldn't mind an alternative Yankee with Bronx Bombers or Braves with The ATL
Definitely dont wont to see We The North on Blue Jay jerseys but Hogtown has a nice ring to it lmao


And I'd only wear them on the road, maybe one game a month.

Lord Jesus no.

Of course they will do that. They are desperate for a younger audience. Meanwhile if a guy celebrates for 5 seconds too long people are pissed.

Bill Belichick is so great his influence reaches into baseball lol


Fiers (an Astro in '17) says this isnt playing the game the right way. I wonder if he's giving his WS ring back or if he would have said anything at all if he had actually played in the 2017 WS

I didn't get the vibe his opinion would be any different if circumstances were different.

Pitchers don't benefit from these schemes so even if it's benefiting their teammates at the plate, it doesn't help them at all. It's not like he was a life long Astro.

Glad the Astros lost. CHEATERS!

Re: MLB Off-Topic

I’m a fan of sign-stealing in the natural sense (being on second base, things like that) if you can get away without people knowing that you’re doing it.

Doing it electronically is low, though. Never will be a fan of that.

Re: MLB Off-Topic

Maybe teams should've been paying attention to that kind of cheating instead of coming up with conspiracies like someone in a white tshirt in CF relaying signs.

That was part of the story too and doesn't sound like it was a conspiracy...
