I dont know what to be... welcomed or discouraged.

I’m more used to the ‘sigged’ threads… where sigs are seemingly larger?

Either way… is there something with baseball SBN blogs that’s different about ‘illegal’ streams?

Everywhere else I’ve been seems to be sorta cool about it.

Theyre more interested in College football recruiting during the summer here than Baseball… It’s sorta sad and shows how one dimensional the state is as far as sports go (less you’re in Portland, and you have rigged basketball to watch lol)

It's a totally different environment, really

But a lot of the newer places have done a good job of having some local-type stuff, or at least things on the menu that aren’t your typical burgers/hot dogs/etc. stuff.

I had a decent cheesesteak in Philly. St. Louis had a Hardee’s (Carl’s Jr. to us). I didn’t get the chance to try anything really Pittsburgh-specific but they had some stuff too.

In the minors, there’s more flexibility with what can be offered. It’s on a smaller scale, even if it’s run by general vendors like in the bigs, but the minors definitely have room to play with different ideas.
