The 'Stros are missing a golden opportunity to grow their brand by not playing exhibitions in Nola. Especially with Bregman on the team.

If nola could get a baseball team, i really think it would need to be between br and nola

That would never happen

Nola wouldnt (actaully cannot) support makor league baseball

I really dislike how the NBA works where 1 or 2 teams are extremely good for long periods of time because of how small the squads are.

The NFL and MLB are much more fluid. Especially in the NFL, you can go from best in the league to worse in just 1 season and vice versa.


This is my problem with the NBA as well. It's not fun if the majority of teams have no chance to win a championship before the season has even started. Also, like MLB, there are too many damn games. It takes away from each game actually meaning something.

If they had an ownership team that wasn't a bunch of idiots, got a real coach, gave the keys to AD and Boogie to recruit players, they'd be solid AF.

Think about it... We're one of the smallest and poorest markets, most inexpensive ticket prices... We should be happy to have the NBA and can't really bitch too much if they suck. Someone has to, just the way it is

I’m with you man. Never been a huge pumpkin toss fan myself. I’d take a women’s lacrosse team in Harahan over the Blender.

I would swap the Pelicans for an MLB team in a heartbeat.

Baseball over hoops all day every day.

Football is my favorite sport, basketball is right behind it so I would keep the Pelicans, however; I would like to see a MLB team here.

I think there would be support for a MLB team and it would be good from an economic standpoint. The slow time around here is June, July & August. Obviously, there are more people in state leaving out for vacation than there are people coming in to vacation. Louisiana doesn't have much to offer for a family vacation so at least a MLB team would keep a flow of traffic with teams coming in.

I would love to have a MLB baseball team here but I enjoy the pels games too much to give that up for a baseball team. MLB season is just too long and wouldn't make it here. Attendance would be shite

If you think Miami has bad attendance, put a MLB team in New Orleans. That’s comical.
