It sucks they are burying this Memorial Day weekend, but I imagine it’s too goose ticket sales on the holiday.
I guess this is nice. Can’t say I was like wow this is awesome, but not sure what I would have wanted them to do, so sure why not let’s do this. Tough weekend to pay attention, I hope it doesn’t get lost.
Nice to see them honoring the team without having to be nagged. Progress.
