So after reading all of Decoding Symbols blog posts I was scrambling to find which comms related to MLB, because we already got the Gold Standard return comms with the GOLDEN NUGGETS and the GOLDEN KNIGHTS, and then it hit me..
The Arizona Diamondbacks are never talked about as really anything, nor are they considered to be in the playoffs or a contender for 20+ years. Suddenly, they are in the World Series, which made me think of Trump's statement:** "They cheated, and you know when people cheat, I always say, ‘If Tiffany gets robbed of its diamonds when they catch the robber, you have to give the diamonds back,'” Trump stated, seemingly implying that President Biden should simply hand him back the presidency. ** This thing was all over the MSM talking about how odd and ridiculous it was.
So before Game 7 last night this dawned on me, I actually went to the Phillies forums on the web to see what the fans were saying...a good 60% of them were noticing the Phillies play calling made no sense, left runners on base almost every inning, and also baseloaded one or two times with no runs. Arizona was also down 2-1 I believe and then EASILY scored another two the next inning...
I think we 'have' something here.
As a proud "QAnon" ;), comms junkie and MLB fan residing in and rooting for AZ, I 100% appreciate the spirit of this post! And yea, the Diamondbacks run here is noticeably unfathomable. Well done Luky!!
Changing the team colors was such a stupid idea... now they look like every other team. The desert colors were bright, beautiful, and unique.
I kinda liked those charcoal grey road unis they used to wear like 2-3 seasons ago. What I don't like is that they seem to change their brand and unis every couple years. Wish they'd just pick a style and stick with it.
