My personal guess is we are looking at about an 80% chance we are going to see a trophy change. The likelihood of them calling a press conference to defend their trophy seems very unlikely to me - that would do nothing but call more (negative) attention to themselves and offer up more fodder for fans & media alike to ostracize them (and their craptastic trophy). All the local radio shows, Sound Off, etc would just go wild...also, I wouldn't be surprised if national outlets picked up on the story either way now that they are calling an official press conference, raising the level of embarrassment even further.

That said, as previous posters have rhetorically asked - "does anyone in this entire state know anything about PR?!?" - so who knows! We can hope though...it's going to be freaking embarrassing to have this monstrosity flashed up on TV on the sidelines.

I've heard Marty make reference to "fruit loop and fatso" a few times over the past couple weeks -- a not so subtle (and very immature) dig at Miller and Deace.

Here's a scary thought. What if the new trophy is more hidious than the first one they came up with? Again we're talking about them replace their "top" pick with runner up and I have to say if that was the winner I'm a little concerned about their back up. But I'm still optimistic because I can't imagine how it could get any worse.

That's pretty much impossible.

Ahh! Coke II sort of a move. I see what they're doing...

FYI..."New Coke" is now Diet Coke with the artificial sweetener.

No. Diet Coke came out before New Coke did.

You sir are correct:

Diet Coke - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Cherry Zero is the bomb. I loathe Diet Coke.
