    Seattle can’t even support MLB. Not sure why people think Portland can.

    No way in hell MLB allows a franchise to relocate there and no way in hell a group of serious investors put skin in the game on something like that.

    MLB in Portland is a hilarious thought. Wilson and the other tards need to give it up. MLB ain’t coming. Timber’s games are basically an LGBT/ANTIFA rally. Baseball could just pick vegas and save themselves a lot of trouble.

    Bring back the Mavericks!

    Kurt Russell’s dad was an OG of epic proportions.
    When I was a kid, Kurt Russell was a big Disney movie star (computer wore tennis shoes, etc). I would get his autograph after the games. He and his dad would talk with me and the other vagabond kids who hung around long after the game was finished. Super nice people. Then I saw his father on television like on Bonanza and couldn't believe he was a movie star too so next time I saw him he talked to me about acting in a Western television show. Just solid human beings.
    I don’t give a fuuuucckk about baseball and I loved that doc.

    That ship sailed long ago . . . Who would be stupid enough to pay for building a stadium and where would they build it?

    The original Portland Mavericks played at Civic Stadium from 1973-1977 . . . Kurt Russell played on the inaugural team in 1973.

    Hmmm . . . You got his autograph when you were a kid? What year did you graduate from Aloha High School? ;-)
    I graduated Aloha in 1979. In 73 I was 12. 6-7th grade. Kurt used to wear some sort of goggles/big rimmed glasses. Had a great arm. Any other questions?

    The guy who used the broom. We thought that was the funniest thing we had ever seen. The documentary brought back many great memories. The first year we would be taken by my friends mother who loved baseball and the Mavericks. The second year on we would take Tri Met. I can't imagine letting my 13 yr old take Tri Met to Portland from Aloha these days without an adult along. Times have changed.

    Dimer night at Civic Stadium to watch the Maverick's was something else. I was sort of 21, my brother was not, but not a lot of ID required.

    My mother would take my brothers and I to the Pilots games. We'd sit out in the left field bleachers. I was really young at the time. We didn't have much money so I have to believe my mom was getting free tickets from some promotional thing. I remember some hot-dog brand that had coupons inside each package and if you saved up enough of them you'd get free admission to a Seattle Totem's match. Gotta believe my mother was doing something similar to get free tickets to the Pilots.

    I was a junior Pilot. It was like a 6 game package dirt cheap for the whole family

    My brother caught a batting practice home run.

    That was the team I listened to on the transistor under the covers

    If you sat out in left field you were no doubt battling my brothers for balls that went into the stands. Between fouls, HRs and players tossing them balls they ended up with quite the collection. That 6 game package must have been what my mother did. We went to what I recall as quite a few games, and we never had money to do anything when I was a kid. Step dad would bring home McDonalds once a month on Friday's from the McDonalds in Ballard down by the Bowling Alley and the Bardahl sign. That was a HUGE luxury when we were kids.

    I caught a big rock in the back of the head at Indigenous People’s stadium. Someone was throwing them from outside the stadium Into the crowd. Opened up quite a gash and Got took to the home locker room where they put stitches in my head. I was like 10 years old. Got an autographed ball.
