I do like when cities have all their teams wearing matching colors. Pittsburgh is the best example with all the teams in black and gold, that's slick, and convenient! I imagine being able to wear a Pirates hat to a Steelers game is convenient.

They're also the colors of the coat of arms of Pitt, which in turn are the city's colors, which meant Pittsburgh was clever.

You know the blue the Pens wear? Pittsburgh's third color! Right there on...on that 400 year old Pitt coat of arms!

Problem: Baseball has too many baseball games and too many of them are on when people are at work.
Solution: It's not 1883 and you have to make the train trip worth it so you stick around for five days. Cut the schedule down to a third of what it is now. Also, don't play at 2 in the afternoon on a Wednesday. That one would just be a no brainer really. Maybe even adopt some sort of Monday/Wednesday/Saturday/Sunday schedule were you play on three of those four! This would also work for hockey.

Also:

Problem: Football is on days that aren't Saturday, Sunday, and Monday.
Solution: Football is supposed to be on saturday if you're college, sunday if you're the NFL, and Monday night for one pair of lucky NFL teams. Play on those days. Wednesday is for middle school, Thursday is for JV teams, Friday is for varsity, and so on. This isn't rocket science. That's how Western PA did it and we literally invented pro football so trust us on this.

This is a pretty good solution to the problem of baseball being interesting and profitable, too.

So to be profitable, baseball has to have ten times the games as the most popular sport in the country? Maybe baseball has more serious problems than I thought.
