I think my favorite part of this is that you can't rename the team the Guardians and move out of Progressive Field, away from their namesake any time soon.

If the $225m in renovations come to fruition, reconfiguring the stadium to two decks like PNC would be unbelievably cool.

Can you explain this to me? Not following the 2 decks parts

Edit- Would the current Club Seats at Progressive Field be considered a 2nd deck?
 
I hope the "Wing G" baseball logo grows on me, I really do, but I would have prefered something more menacing. No reason they couldn't have riffed on the Guardians statues.

And btw, the city can always rename the statues to "Guardians of Cleveland" instead of this traffic nonsense.

Menacing ? There isn’t a single logo in the MLB that’s menacing unless you have a bird phobia.

Why would they do that?

And the Louvre can just give Mona Lisa a cooler name while we're at it! What's with that Italian nonsense, it's located in France now! :chuckle:
 
What pisses me off ... doing a search for Cleveland Guardians and getting the (SF area) Mercury News, NY Post, NY Times, CNBC and a Pittsburgh CBS affiliate links before getting a local Cleveland one.

And the "C" is somehow worse than the block C.

Because "Guardians of Traffic" sounds...well....

Let me put it this way: Guarding the entire city of Cleveland is much cooler than guarding a Honda Element going 10mph over the speed limit.

The team isn’t called the Guardians of Traffic, just the Guardians.

It’s based on the statues, but the statues are not actually affiliated with the team.

The worst part is I can already hear Matt Underwood being like

“He really flew like a guardian on that catch!”

“Franmil hit that to Mt Olympus!”

“Terry Francona changing the guard here”

“They need to guard this lead”

Can we get a video of Christian Kirksey yelling "we must guard this house" between batters?

“He fouled that one right off Roberto’s shin gaurdian”
