  1. Yeah, the PawSox are moving to Providence. The new owners are a group headed by Larry Lucchino (president of the Red Sox) and the Fenway Sports Management group. So there's no real chance of them leaving the area. But McCoy Stadium is the oldest AAA park, and its in a less-than-great area of a suburb. It doesn't have much in the way of luxury suites, and there's not much to do in the area. Doesn't really fit the mold of a modern, downtown minor league park, especially at that level. New park is supposed to be right on the river in downtown Providence and be opening in 2017 or 2018. The team will just rebrand as the Rhode Island Red Sox. I'm sure the new park will be much nicer than McCoy but the old park has its charms for being a big concrete thing. Grew up going to a couple of games a year there, and its a fun family-oriented place.

  3. Big Doggy Cool? Big Daddy Dog
  4. Lakewood Blue Claws are within 90 mins of Philly too. The team in Newark actually folded before this season. Which is a shame. Nice little ballpark, but no one ever went to the games and they kind of stopped taking care of it. Camden is close too, obviously. Though that would involve having to go to Camden. Ballpark has an awesome view though, with one of the supports for the Ben Franklin Bridge basically sitting in left field.
  5. I love the hostile little note about the program number in the bottom right. Like they could have just wrote "Program Number" above the number stamp. But clearly the program guy was sick and damn tired of answering questions about when the raffle was going to be drawn, and where do I check my lucky number, and decided just to head those questions off and tell you right up front you're an idiot for thinking this is anything but the program number.
  6. I'm OK with how things turned out. That was really the only place the story COULD end up. I mean if you were someone who spent the 8 years hanging on the mother reveal it was probably disappointing. And they spent a LOT of time over those 8 years hinting that the mother reveal was the big endgame. So there are probably a lot of people disappointed. But that ending made total sense for the characters and the story they built. And they did drop a lot of hints. But seriously. What a ridiculous way to run the final season and finale. They dragged what should have been an hour long episode out to an entire season and crammed what should have been the entire final season into an hour long finale. I guess they didn't want to telegraph the ending too much? Or felt handcuffed by the "How I Met Your Mother" premise and felt they had to have that play into the finale? But they had what would have been a really good, logical, powerful final season contained in that last episode, and they skimmed over all of it. And gave us that excruciating season to build to it.
  7. Now I can't tell if they're intentionally misdirecting or not, but the 2024 scenes certainly SEEM to be hinting that That said, you're right that they're good at twisting it at the last moment, so I'm certainly prepared for that.
  8. Actually Wrestling is Fun already spoofed itself with Wrestling is Serious. Featuring Kyle O'Reilly vs. Reilly O'Kyle.
  9. The Red Sox signed Junichi Tazawa right out of school from Japan (which caused a bit of an uproar at the time, as NPB teams were afraid MLB teams would start making this a regular thing and sign away all the best players). It worked out pretty well there, though the Sox had several Japanese translators on staff from having Matsuzaka and Okajima at the time.
  10. I always loved the Austin Aries/Roderick Strong vs. Bryan Danielson/Jay Lethal tag team title match from Tag Wars 2006. Was just kind of a random pairing for the challengers, and not a heavily hyped tag title match, but it was one of my favorite tag matches in ROH.
