    It’s Spanish for cowboy.
  2. [AH Fiction] 75 Years of Driveball (1950-2025)

    I like A better. There’s no division that covers all four time zones.

    I love it. Having two teams out west will be much better than one, and it will open the door for further expansion out west. Also, will the LA team need a new name or just do what LA teams do and keep names that made more sense in their original cities?
  4. [AH Fiction] 75 Years of Driveball (1950-2025)

    Don’t blame me; I voted for McGovern, I mean, Baltimore. Imagine them being the original Colts.
  5. [AH Fiction] 75 Years of Driveball (1950-2025)

    Why do I feel like that will be the answer to a million-dollar question fifty years later?
  6. [AH Fiction] 75 Years of Driveball (1950-2025)

    The 60s and 70s are ripe for a rival league, and if the league doesn’t have enough action out west, I could see the rival league dominating out west. I could see Des Moines being the Heartland’s answer to the Packers, and bear in mind that, at this point, the Patriots are still a decade away...

    I wonder if it would make more sense in the future for the Des Moines team to switch to calling themselves the Iowa Haymakers. Unless Iowa City wants a team down the road.

    At that point, the trend would have been American and National, and I imagine DANA will follow suit.

    A lot of variation in scoring, I notice. Brooklyn wins with 55 points and Chicago loses with 139. I suppose it’s no different from an NFL team winning 13-10 one week and losing 48-41 the following week, but you really notice the variance when there’s that many points being scored.

    How soon does this go international?
  11. [AH Fiction] 75 Years of Driveball (1950-2025)

    What time of year are you thinking?
  12. [AH Fiction] 75 Years of Driveball (1950-2025)

    Are we looking at two divisions or one large league? How long is the schedule? I presume it’s like football and played weekly. I assume if it’s two divisions, only the division winners make the playoffs.
  13. [AH Fiction] 75 Years of Driveball (1950-2025)

    A lot of football players playing driveball. Looks like the NFL is in trouble here.
  14. What if it was known the Lusitania carried ammunition?

    If my neighbor says he’s going to kick my ass if I go into my front yard, it doesn’t make him any less of an asshole for doing it. All Germany did was announce their intentions; it didn’t justify their actions.
  15. What if it was known the Lusitania carried ammunition?

    Bombing a military target is still considered an offense if you’re ostensibly a neutral country. At that point, there were people chomping at the bit for a piece of that war, and the fact that they had war weapons on board wouldn’t mean shit. They weren’t directly involved in the war and weren’t...
