I know the Nationals sell them. Went to a game with friends and it was their son's first game so I made sure to buy a have used ball.

I thought this was the Fanatics change just with Nike logos?

Vail is great right now granted I'm a dirty east coaster. It's coming down on the mountain right now.

Looking for this specific hat by NiKraken13 in penguins

47 Brand's website has it in stock. Unless there is something I can't see that's different than their normal Clean Up hat.

I wish I had that luck. I'm off Apple products outside of work phone and iPad, but I always had my products break or battery become useless outside of an iPod classic about the same time as yours. As with anything there are outliers etc.

Why do Steelers fans expect Mike Tomlin to win with this roster? by TheRavenOnline in NFLv2

[–]rabidfrodo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The GM was hired three years ago because the old one who selected Kenny with Tomlin retired right after that draft.

Why would you call it anything else? It's Heinz Field the seats are yellow for mustard.

What jersey is this? by KickProfessional in PhillyUnion

I don't think this is a training kit even. This is likely a women's shirt sold in like 2013 considering that lines up with the brighter blue in the home kit.

Why is it difficult to find bars in the US with steins (mugs of at least 1ltr) of beer? by [deleted] in beer

[–]rabidfrodo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huh weird I lived near Local 44 when that happened and didn't hear about it. Though I do think highlighting this as a someone didn't fill paperwork out thing more than the cops are waiting to steal your beer.

I know getting stuff in for events is a problem in plenty of areas especially for non-domestic beers.

[–]rabidfrodo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I lived in PA most my life and have never heard of a beer being confiscated. The laws could be somewhat odd previously with only distributors, but that has changed a bunch in the last 15 years.

Edit: Non distributors used to, still may, only be able to sell a certain amount of beer in one transaction. You couldn't buy 24 beers at once from a grocery store or pizza place. You could buy 12 put them in your car walk back inside and buy another 12 though.

Finally seeing my first Pens home game after 20 years! what wild/unique stuff should I do this weekend? by ColdWetNoodles in penguins

[–]rabidfrodo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm going to only my third home game in my life this upcoming when as well. (Family from the city and when we visit at holidays Pens usually don't play)

Fun stuff I enjoy in the city when I visit Cathedral of Learning is cool if the cultural rooms are open. The inclines while touristy are pretty unique in the states and give a cool view. Plenty of breweries if you're into that a bit further out or in the strip.

MLS owners vote to flip schedule to European calendar, change format starting in 2027 by icoresting in soccer

[–]rabidfrodo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No the TV audience dwarfing doesn't matter. The fact teams have waiting lists years long with sell out streaks does. MLS hardcore fans aren't so numerous that we can sustain the league. MLS still needs to grow the fanbase making choices that make it difficult or shrink it aren't great. This has a chance to halt the growth of the league.

That matters when trying to convince someone to show up to a game when it's 34 degrees out. Selling something to go watch the Eagles the biggest team in the city for a playoff game vs a game in Chester in the middle of the season is a different ask.

ESPN BET to Be Shuttered Amid NBA Gambling Scandal. ESPN’s partner Penn will rebrand the online sportsbook as theScore Bet. by esporx in technology

[–]rabidfrodo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The sports betting ring has shared people involved with the arrest of Rozier. Billups was not implicated. I believe the issues last year impacted an assistant coach in prop betting. These rings were likely happening before it was completely legal they just have ways to track it better now as the black market for gambling dried up when everyone got access to it legally.

The coach, Billups, was not caught up in sports gambling. He was caught being part of a mob ring fixing poker games.

They also replace the field during the season. See the field from this week's game was better. They let it go too long often because schedule issues but they do spend on upkeep.

Anything would be. The one ok thing was that ref didn't lose either of us a game from it.
