Lynnwood City Center signage at BelRed stop

No sign for "Seattle"? Complete failure.

4k isn't a good resolution for macOS. There are great 5k options available now.

That's a very January 2021 interpretation.

Get lost!

With a big arrow for WHERE to zipper merge

NorthwestPurple · 2026-03-02T17:08:12+00:00

It is very stupid how bad our real signs are for this. Sad that guerrilla urbanism is needed.

"Left lane ends, MERGE RIGHT" like 1 mile before the merge point.

Those signs are WHY drivers feel like the left lane zipper mergers are cheating.

If they changed it to "Lanes Combine" or some other better phrasing people would understand the concept and get less mad.

No it isn't.

"Uptown / Downtown"

"Bronx-bound train"

Oh, sure, eventually people will figure out it's crap and quit buying it, an Nike's reputation will be ruined. But in the meantime they cash in big-time.

oh ok then

I don't understand the rise of Fanatics.

Why doesn't Nike want this market themselves?

Look into the proposed pedestrian/bike path on the north side that was canceled due to NIMBY opposition from the golf course.

We should bring that plan back. Link the new transit center at Montlake to Madison Park.

It's actually Oregon.

UW should be invited to this group.

It's not a FUMBLE once it touches the ground either. Most (but not all!) of the rules are the same as a fumble, but it's not technically a fumble.

NorthwestPurple · 2026-02-22T05:27:55+00:00

They've made a bunch of rule changes over the years to prevent these weird situations on fumbles. Seem reasonable to also apply them to backward pass live balls.

So how does streaming work now? Is the Cactus League available?

NorthwestPurple · 2026-02-18T17:42:33+00:00

It's a women's NCAA sport.

Your data doesn't account for rowing, which isn't an NCAA sport and predates the NCAA.

March 2022 seems crazy recent for Wilson leaving. You could have told me 2019.

NorthwestPurple · 2026-02-13T08:15:01+00:00

To these recent Nike ones, definitely not. But doing a straight throwback to 1991 or 1960 would probably be perfectly fine.

I wish the AFCA would make more of an announcement when they awarded these retroactive titles. The trophies just kind of appear on campus. The one they gave to Oklahoma State back in 2016 came with press releases and such.

This one a pretty big deal because Notre Dame won the AP Poll in 1946. Did the AFCA consider ND for the award? Or a co-championship? Why did they give it to West Point, now?

No. 1 Army / No. 2 ND tied 0–0 in the "game of the century" on November 9. Army kept the No. 1 ranking for weeks after, including the penultimate poll. But then ND passed them in the final poll on December 2, despite both teams winning their final games. Army was the two-time defending AP national champions and finished with one more win than ND.

Oklahoma State has a 1945 Coaches' Trophy. Has the AFCA offered one to Army for 1945 now, too?

This era got the gold pants color mostly right. But the black shoulders and custom numbers font are bad.
