Phillies vs Twins at Field of Dreams, fans praise cinematic presentation
daughters are FURIOUS because I have the Field Of Dreams game on and not the preseason Steelers game and I'm patiently trying to explain to them that preseason football isn't real
I love seeing posts, "this is the last weekend with no football for x months" for this reason. I think we got a few more weekends left till football starts
Right? If I wanted to watch a bunch of semi-pros prance around pretending to be real football players, I'd be a Jets fan!
Preseason football is practice scrimmages to see who gets to be the 2nd and 3rd stringers. Most the time is spent on interviews, anyways. Some of the best preseason starts end up with a horrible win loss average by November.

Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in.
Before the game I was groucholy thinking how dumb this whole Field of Dreams Game is. And then the music swelled and my boys marched out from the corm and didn’t I just well up with tears. Then of course the TV announcing crew made hash of covering the actual game.
The NBA should have its own Field of Dreams game where one day a year, they not only put a game outdoors but play it in an extremely weird and random location. Like put a game in a ghost town one year, then have a game in the Galapagos Islands the next year. And so on.
I think the NBA Cup should've essentially been a double elimination tournament with that vibe tbh. fly the Lakers and Trail Blazers to Honolulu and make them play on the beach
A gym with an auditorium stage behind one of the stanchion. And the only concessions are cartons of milk, fruit cups, and those little ice creams with wooden spoons.
they need to go back to playing on big aircraft carrier ships randomly with waves, first team to lose 5 balls out of bounds loses or high score wins after 4 quarters
Honestly, they should have at least some pre-season games at places like Rucker Park.
If they could somehow restrain themselves & not sell tickets, so you literally had teams, support and camera/drone setups, so you actually saw the background they could really make some wild looking shit like that
Angels Gate Park would be a great one.
they gotta do one in every Street Fighter II location including E Honda's bath house
I'm down with this, but given that baseball does it because of a movie, then basketball should also have a game influenced by a hit movie. So... Air Bud Day. Get to work, Adam Silver.
