Here's a potential layout for the names. I just threw up in my mouth. I pray they dont go that overboard with the logo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, reality is it's one on each side plus one on top. Unless coming from certain angles at a distance, you won't see but one logo at a time.

But it’s going to look weird seeing it in print if they do that. But honestly who really cares when it comes down to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a saving grace of US Cellular "The Cell" Field. "El Depot" and "Depot-cito" sound cool and roll of the tongue. Tell me, what nickname can Truist Park or Guaranteed Rate Park or T-Mobile Field have? They defy nicknames and thus true fan ownership. I'd take El Depot over them any day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It goes with the logo, so I don't get the big deal. I still think Guaranteed Rate Field is worse. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hovertical Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 taking a break while at work so i don't know if anyone else pointed this out on this thread or the game day one but did anyone else noticed that when a left handed batter was up, the placement of the umpire almost always makes it read "pot park" ?

"The Depot" is ok. 1 hour ago, el_gmac said: so bottom line you bastards are happy with whatever name as long the Marlins are pocketing from it ...interesting No, I wouldn't say that. I think it's more that that's the deal they signed, and you make the best out of it/look at the positive of it. Us not liking the name isn't going to change the fact that that's the name for whatever period of time the deal is for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
