Go Phillies! I don’t like rooting for teams that try to buy championships.

Except they keep releasing weird renderings. No official plans yet, no finances in place.

Also, the only way a white roof would work is if you play with a pink baseball.

Eventually we're going to go away from the over the top gawdy stadiums and arenas, right?

I mean for a while we had the cookie cutter stadiums, and now we're in the waaaay too glitzy shit.
 
If you take away the roof aspect of it, you really can't tell the difference between that and Oakland Coliseum.

Hopefully Rob Manferd drops some news about MLB expansion sometime during the World Series.

They will just say the same word salad causing a temporary blip in traffic to PDPs page. And then nothing.
 
LA + Toronto population = 11 million
OKC + Indy population = 1.5 million
Nobody gives a shit about small markets.

Bottom line is that was probably the best month of baseball I’ve seen and might be the most exciting world series there has ever been.

I watched the last few innings of those 2 great games. First I’d watched in decades. Fun watch. Now if they could just make the OTHER 190 games that fun.

Nah, the team’s regional local broadcast numbers are proving that.

Were you able to watch any of those games?

Do you think WHO was playing had an affect/effect on viewership?

Do I think the teams that play have an affect on viewership ... yes without a doubt but that doesn't change the fact that the NBA has seen a slight decline over the past few years and MLB is on the uptick. Add to MLB in park attendance going up slightly for the 3rd year in a row and things are looking positive. Again they need to figure out the RSN's where some are thriving and others have cratered but that's for the NBA as well. There is a reason most of these teams are going to free over the air channels, it's not an MLB specific issue. But again I'm not sure why I argue with you, someone could put your hand in a bucket of water and you'd say your hand wasn't wet. Give it up, MLB has passed up the NBA as the #2 pro sport in the country (still light years behind the NFL and CFB) but the rules changes and the excitement around the game is fun to see, even if you can't seem to figure it out.

I can promise you the Mariners games next year will start out pretty lit. How the season goes will depict how fun those games are to watch.
