Well, even that makes the Panther Arena a more valuable asset than I'd considered.

Well, even that makes the Panther Arena a more valuable asset than I'd considered.

Hey, thanks!
I've actually been working on some new stuff this week.
That's the other thing about using a lozengy... it really only works for soccer, where Milwaukee has a long-standing German soccer link (Bavarians, which has sent many players to UWM). Perhaps if...
I'm as big a Milwaukee history buff as anyone, but it's not exactly fun playing in a venue that only fills up for Wisconsin, Marquette, and late-round tournament games. Sure, it might be the House...
The Panthers, Admirals and (FWIW) the Wave could all use a 5,000 seat arena. MSG has a theater of about that size built into its complex separate from the actual arena they're famous for. If all...
Right, and I get that's why Murray State is using it. The problem is that we can no longer "own" the pattern in the college sports world.
It's similar to how Kentucky started using a checkerboard...
The problem with the lozengy is that while we were changing athletic directors more than most Cudahy residents take showers and not giving a crap about branding, THIS happened:
...
MSG has a 5,000-seat theater attached to its complex. Perhaps a compromise can be reached where a smaller arena (5,000-6,000 seats) that could double as a theater could be built as part of the new...
Count me as another who was hoping the look from last year would stick around for awhile. These aren't terrible, but they're certainly not great. I think they'd actually look better without the...
I would love for the Milwaukee athletic department to reach out to the Admirals (and the Wave, if they're still around) about pooling their resources and connections to get a 6,000-seat arena built...
If there's a way to curtain off the upper deck at the new arena the way they do at BC Place for Whitecaps matches, this might be feasible. Otherwise, let's stick with the cell.
Rob Jeter is to college basketball coaches what Jay Cutler is to NFL QBs.
This quote says it all.
Except we we've only even been eligible for the Division 1 tournament for 30 of those 115 years, and the tournament itself has only been around for 73 years... what a...
As often as we've been subjected to taunts from Bucky supporters, it's nice to occasionally see stuff like this to remind us that not all Badgers fans are such annoying pollyannas. Watch a gang of...
Just pathetic... absolutely pathetic. As annoyed as I get for all the casual hate Rob Jeter gets, displays like last night are exactly why our fans give him so much sh*t.
I get that the Badgers...
Is UMKC trying to usurp us as Division 1's biggest branding nightmare? Let's see, they're trying to push "Kansas City," yet everything in their arena still says "UMKC." Their colors are blue and...
The things that happen when I leave the room (or leave for work)... I feel like Travolta's character in Pulp Fiction.
Great quality road win for the Panthers!
We're being out-drawn by friggin' indoor soccer, now?
Granted, basketball offerings in Milwaukee are plenty where soccer offerings are finite; but good gracious, if that's not a kick in the...
I know this is somewhat off topic, but who still gives a crap about indoor soccer in 2013? Who even goes to Wave matches besides youth soccer clubs and their parents?
I don't think it's really fair to say Butler and Wisconsin "inflated" Milwaukee's overall attendance when there is zero chance of getting competition like that to play them at home (at least not...
If Freimund had bothered to do his research, he'd know we were averaging 4,000 before the move back to the KC... that's larger than the capacity of the KC.
I would also imagine more fans would be...
I did do this a few years back when the first real push to re-brand as the U of Milwaukee began. Unfortunately, we were undercut by the SA (shocking, I know) who used seg fees to purchase a bunch of...
She probably chose UWM because it shows her as someone attached to the university and not just some random girl named Amanda who lives in Milwaukee.
MKE can work in contexts where its taken for...
...the tournament we haven't been to in <sigh> seven years.
Perhaps "doesn't bother me" is the wrong wording since even the NCAA itself retroactively refers to us as "Milwaukee" in all of its...
I hope this means we're going to be an option for created players on Madden. Yes, the idea of that actually excites me. :D
As for the "UW-M" spelling... I honestly don't mind it given the...
