So, I just got back from a vacation to Hawaii.  While there, one of the things that this old sports/sports logo geek had on the list was to visit Aloha Stadium, which has been vacant  and unused since January 2021.   Aloha will likely be demolished, and may or may not be replaced with a new stadium on the site.   The stadium has always held interest for me since I read about it in the late 1970s, and found out about its interesting way of converting from a football to a baseball configuration.   Completed in 1975, the stadium was home to University of Ha ..read more

You know, with Easter coming up next week, I was thinking: In North America, Christmas belongs to the NBA, New Year's Day to NHL and College Football's biggest bowl games, Thanksgiving has the NFL and CFL (depending on which side of the border you're on), but what about Easter? That one is hard to pin down, but, IMO.....   I think baseball's opening weekend, ongoing NHL and NBA action (what with both teams going down to the wire before the playoffs begin) should be synonmous with Easter. Granted, there have been a few spring football leagues that have attempted to join the party, but base ..read more

I was checking my channel guide and was surprised to see that the NCAA division 1 women's volleyball championship is airing live on ABC. As a volleyball fan this caught me way off guard since the championship usually airs on ESPN2. I would have never expected a women's volleyball match outside of the gold medal match in the Olympics to air live on a major over the air broadcast network.   In addition to that, there's going to be 2 new professional women's volleyball leagues starting in 2024. The Pro Volleyball Federation (PVF) and League One Volleyball ( going by abbreviation LOVB ..read more
