Las Vegas Aces?
Nope. It looks like the Athletics name is heading to its fourth city.

Re: Detroit Tigers 2023

No Bally Sports here on Dish Network so no Tigers for me. It's really unfortunate. It was nice watching them on TV, I could just tune in when I had time. A subscription to their app makes no sense for a casual watcher. MLBTV is a no go because local teams are blacked out. MLB-TV through a VPN shoul...

Re: Dumbocrats Vote to Eliminate School Grades

https://wfnt.com/ixp/87/p/michigan-house-votes-to-ditch-a-f-grading-system-for-k-12-schools/ I think the A-F grading system makes it easier to see a student's progress. So I guess an F will now be "needs work". :rolleyes The list of poor-performing schools would also be nixed. Did you read the arti...

Re: NCAA tournament

Can someone please help me understand how Kansas is in the West and Kansas State is in the East? Why is Connecticut in the West and Miami (Fl) in the Midwest? It's the attempt to even out the presumed competitiveness among the four regionals. You'll note the highest seeds in each region are the mos...

Re: Well, someone has to bring up college basketball...

MSU is a damn good home team and a mediocre road / neutral site team. I suspect they'll be a 7 seed in the big dance. I think there's an even money chance they'll win the opening round game. I predict they'll lose in the round of 32 unless they are fortunate enough to face a Cinderella team coming ...

I didn't watch the game, but it sounds like there was less defense than a Harlem Globetrotters game.

Re: DNC changes primary schedule

Honestly, the most logical move would be for all states and all parties to just have a single, nationwide primary on one date.

But they'll never do that because the drama and political theatre that comes with the current system is far too lucrative.

Re: Holy shit, 9&10 has a new logo.

So I decided fuck around with making a more practical version of their new logo. Pretty sure the reason I got away from doing creative full-time is because I have too much common sense to jive with the marketing types. https://i.ibb.co/nk1BT5X/9and10-01.png https://i.ibb.co/wMQ4jTd/9and10-02.png May...

Does anyone know what prompted the changes to the logo? Seems like it was just kind of sudden.
It definitely came out of nowhere, but I think Heritage acquired/merged with a digital marketing agency recently, and I'd be that has something to do with it.

Re: Holy shit, 9&10 has a new logo.

I think that rendition looks great! Much better than the one the station is actually using! Regarding ditching the Fox 32 brand for the awkward Local 32 brand (and ugly logo), my hunch is they wanted to avoid confusion with Chicago's Fox 32 for digital purposes. I never understood why they ditched ...

Re: Holy shit, 9&10 has a new logo.

If anyone is good at Photoshopping, how about making a mock up of the new logo by adding the CBS eye and the call letters? Maybe put the call letters under the 9 and maybe superimpose the EYE at the 9 o'clock position a little? The yellow isn't very flattering tbh. Ask and ye shall receive: https:/...

Re: Holy shit, 9&10 has a new logo.

All in all, I'll take it over the gawdy previous logo. One thing troubles me, there is no mention on their main page that they are a CBS affiliate. It's like they are keeping it a secret. They never had the CBS logo on the old one, either. I've always hated the Local 32 logo. They should redo that ...
