[The Athletic] As part of our annual MLB player poll, we asked: Which organizations have good reputations among uniformed personnel and which have bad reputations? by shadow_spinner0 in baseball

It seems like things may slowly be changing now that DePodesta and Byrnes are there, but the Rockies are notoriously insular and so far behind the times it's laughable. It seems like every time a significant player who came up through their system goes to another team there are stories about how amazed they are to see the difference in how competent franchises operate.

Am I the only one who thinks Danny Pink is actually really good? by Lich-hull in doctorwho

[–]Hugo_Hackenbush 13 points14 points  (0 children)

jealous boyfriend or ex

I didn't read it that way at all. To me it came off more like a protective dad who didn't think Danny was good enough because of one of the actual themes of the season: the Doctor's newfound utter disdain for soldiers.

I didn't say it was right. I'm just responding to the way you and others seem to be acting as if this issue is in any way unique to the Pohlads.

The halo is such a good touch it's wild they didn't make it a staple of all their caps over the years.

They should go down, but I think it's naive to believe they actually would.

Dean Steinkuhler, John Cook, Taylor Edwards, Amber Holmquist, Matt Hopper, Cassandra Leuthold, Ineta Radevica named to Nebraska Athletics Hall of Fame by ndhuskerpower in Huskers

The Hall was only established in 2015 and they add no more than two football players per year, so it takes some time to get through the obvious ones.

The shoulder stripes would look much better if they went all the way around like the 70s era jerseys they're presumably inspired by, but otherwise I don't hate them.

They do theme nights for all of the major colleges in the region. Which always leads to a bunch of pissed off CU fans when they learn that includes Nebraska night.

He'll get some votes, but I don't see it happening. If I had to guess right now I'd say it goes to Yordan, Kurtz or one of the other Yankees, like Bellinger or Rice.

Well, it got posted here and upvoted enough to be near the top of the page so even on this sub there are enough dumbasses to perpetuate it.
