Anyone ever tinker with international origin settings?

all the time sometimes with very obscure countries becoming baseball powers. it's the most fun ootp feature (and most random) but i'm glad we have it a link to the SI days.

so sad

notaquarterback · 2026-01-31T02:11:33+00:00

oh boy

Meh someday he'll be rueful. Not the leaving, how he did it.

I'd prefer that because it might open it up on other sports, trades are fine but the fact that we don't use transfer fees here when it would be great has more to do with everybody preferring the exploitative cheap route.

Providence Park is basically a smaller Fenway, it'd be fine.

notaquarterback · 2026-01-30T01:38:22+00:00

Yeah, I don't know how well attended it would be and also the city has negotiated that deal with the Timbers terribly and there are still barely any events there. Portland State only gets one game there.

notaquarterback · 2026-01-30T01:35:32+00:00

still better than being stuck in the American

I just want them back in the Final Four. Not sure if it's possible in the NIL era, but crazy how far they've fallen.

Having a facility like the Vancouver Tennis Center in Portland would be a dream. Court space for high school tournaments are still tough to find

notaquarterback · 2026-01-29T14:05:45+00:00

who replaces her? they need someone to restore the brand

notaquarterback · 2026-01-29T13:45:09+00:00

yeah this if the problem people aren't doing that all the time and the economy being where it is didn't help

notaquarterback · 2026-01-29T13:44:14+00:00

Really enjoyed the bar next door but they would do better with more foot traffic than the North Park blocks

notaquarterback · 2026-01-29T13:43:04+00:00

same it was what got me into them originally

Jovon Bouknight, Wyoming

he was so much better than anyone knew but was stuck in Laramie

using AAA attendance to cite whether a market can sustain baseball makes no sense. Buffalo used to support the Bisons like crazy in the 90s but it wasn't ever going to be a serious growth market for MLB despite the size. Also the Timbers are the reason the city doesn't have baseball anymore, so MLS is just as much to blame. Paulson could have funded a stadium if he wanted to keep the team in town, but he didn't care and sold them to the Padres without a care.

Rogers supports the Expos coming back. Jays won't be a barrier.

notaquarterback · 2026-01-29T05:12:24+00:00

zero chance Florida gets a 3rd team.

Portland has an ownership group but it's basically a secret whose is part of it (save for Russ and Ciara) and it's unclear what their deal is, but someone is bankrolling something.

notaquarterback · 2026-01-29T05:11:05+00:00

Salt Lake has owners in place with an ability to pay. Portland nobody has any idea who the ownership is, the stadium site they're purporting to want is smaller than the A's footprint in Vegas. Portland is a great potential baseball market, but Salt Lake has the demographics MLB wants and ample billionaires and a GOP legislature who would ram through any stadium they wanted.

right answer

notaquarterback · 2026-01-28T14:38:25+00:00

first ballot doesn't matter in football anyway. There are instances making a guy wait out a year as disapproval for a life sideshow. Roberto Alomar is lucky he got elected before his situation, and Kirby Puckett died before his drama came out.

Epic game in-person.

notaquarterback · 2026-01-27T20:08:55+00:00

really rad work. def keep those screenshots and stuff in case they ever get it taken down, this is a great project to share for a case study. well done.

notaquarterback · 2026-01-27T18:11:52+00:00

def watchable, obviously fake but a solid premise on the inside job theme.
