And ONLY the glove logl
logo

I'd love Arizona to go to a rustier red
I also feel the Rangers could go for a whole redesign - has their uniform *ever* really been iconic?
2:13
And I'd love for the Mariners to bring back the pitchfork more often, I still think that's an amazing logo

The Dbacks have a 12 game win streak against the NL West. During that time, they have been trailing at any point for a TOTAL of 1.5 innings.

If baseball expanded back to Montreal, would you support the team retaking the name "Expos?" Or would you want to see a new legacy created?
AvatarDan Szymborski

I think I'd want tos ee a new legacy.  I understand the desire to restore an old legacy, but I think you can't recapture those things once they're gone
2:14
For example, I think the Baltimore Ravens have been far better off creating a new era than if they had, say, gotten a swap with the Irsays for the old Colts stuff.

I'm not sure if chat obsessions are transmitted by agnatic seniority

Remember when the Texas Rangers' logo was a baseball hat perched atop a baseball? Yikes.

Would you support an effort to rename the Cleveland Indians by their old moniker, the Spiders?
AvatarDan Szymborski

No, Spiders freak me out

Not even a chance I take a politics question, CarrotJuice!  The general internet environment for it is a fetid cesspool.

Still Cubs.

Should the Jays try to trade Donaldson this offseason? I say yes, my grandmother says no
AvatarDan Szymborski

Depends if they're blown away.  I'd give the team a last go

His resusciation of the Yankees dynasty by being one of the engineers of the mid-late 90s turnaround

That's good because being a dark mind does not jive with being a digital dandy
