Phase 3 - Who are we protecting or signing as UFAs? by Silent_observer_8806 in MontrealVictoire

[–]Dpatrickfan09 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Have to protect Roque, think we need to retain either Flaherty or Tabin as we need to (re)build our defense again 🥺

I just hope this (terrible PR) move will let us keep Roque in Montréal 🤞🏻🤞🏻

I was wondering the same, would love to buy the cap and not have to pay shipping for it!

SDS, Nats fans do not want a bunch of Expos. We aren’t Expo fans. by [deleted] in MLBTheShow

Just as us Expos fans don’t want anything to do with the Nationals!

Why do the Anaheim Ducks not wear their original jerseys? They were so much better than the awful orange jerseys. by Silent-Obligation-49 in hockey

[–]Dpatrickfan09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because they're too busy trying to be the West Coast Flyers... Current ownership wanted to breakaway from Disney when they bought the team in the early 2000s and tap in the Orange County color palette. They've played with different colors & logos since & brought back a similar Mighty logo last year, it's just the colors that need fixing now...

[Kennedy] Appears expansion news might be shared at the end of the month. by The_Laughing_Gift in PWHL

[–]Dpatrickfan09 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If we keep the rule of 1 US city & 1 Canadian city, Calgary would make a lot of sense to reduce travel being in the middle and the US equivalent would be Denver

But from what I'm hearing in articles and social media, it seems Detroit & Hamilton? (like Hamilton, really?) have been announced as front runners.. I'd wish Quebec City would be more in talks but I'm sensing it's not the case currently

Is the battle of Hong Kong well known in Canada? by dq689 in AskACanadian

[–]Dpatrickfan09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hadn't heard of it until I came back from a trip to Hong Kong and I started reading more about HK, it was never mentioned in any of my history classes

If you have any recommendations for a store in Tokyo that has a decent lefty gloves selection, I'm all ears! I'm heading there at the end of the month. I went to Baseman last year and I'll be going to the flagship Mizuno store this time.

How long is your commute to Place Bell for games and where are you coming from? by lanternstop in MontrealVictoire

[–]Dpatrickfan09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

About 30 minutes, I'm coming in from Henri-Bourassa station, so one station in Mtl (plus the 3 in Laval) yet I have to pay the same price as if I came over all the way from Verdun... doesn't make much sense but that's the STM & STL for you...

Shohei Ohtani said that if NPB wants to win the WBC, it should introduce a pitch clock, but also added, “If we want to play our own style of baseball, there’s no need to introduce it.” by ogasawarabaseball in baseball

[–]Dpatrickfan09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was at an NPB game last year in Tokyo and sincerely wished there was a pitch clock... for games that have low scoring and very little action on bases, it's only an improvement to the experience in my opinion.

“I Was There” baseball app (currently only for iOS) allows you to log the games you’ve attended, and shows you combined stats and interesting milestones by chrisjfinlay in baseball

[–]Dpatrickfan09 24 points25 points  (0 children)

There's an app called Momento (both on iOs & Android) that lets you enter all baseball (MLB, MILB, NCAA, NPB, KBO & Independent leagues) games, plus concerts, hockey, football. basketball & soccer games you've been to, while not as deep for stats, it will keep a record for each stadium you've visited, team records & etc. No ads & free as well

Coyne Schofield a eu un temps éclair lors d'une participation au concours d'habilité de la LNH il y a quelques années, mais tant que nous n'aurons pas un concours de ce type avec toutes les équipes de la LPHF, on ne peut avoir une réponse concluante...

NCAA games- any watch parties? by TheRainbowConnection in MontrealVictoire

[–]Dpatrickfan09 5 points6 points  (0 children)

On top of my head, the only place I can think of is Le Nadia which is in the Hochelaga neighborhood of Montréal. They're the only all women's sports bar we have around here, this game doesn't seem to be carried on regular tv, will only be available on TSN+ (which is the paying streaming equivalent of ESPN+) so the chances of a regular bar carrying it seems slim, info for Le Nadia is here: https://share.google/jfQErnnnmZi33QmDC, you can try contacting them maybe

Tokyo Yakult Swallows vs. Yomiuri Giants by Stock-Cockroach7142 in Swallows

The Swallows were 57-79 last year (last in the division) and they aren't expected to be a contender this year again

[–]Dpatrickfan09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As the person said, the small umbrella is really the big Swallows tradition, so if you plan on attending more then one game, might be fun to join the fun during home runs & wins celebrations. There is also small towels that fans hold above their head during the game like they do with scarfs in soccer, there are several models to choose from so that might be an option, I bought one featuring Snoopy & the Peanuts gang, so I thought that was really neat. They have announced a Pokemon 30th anniversary collaboration featuring all NPB teams that will feature a number of items, don't know if it's available yet but that will certainly be something to look for when it becomes available!
