where do you go with the movie?

The guy gets rich from all the people coming to the field, buys up all the farmland and creates Pottersville?

Ghost League games.

Ty Cobb vs Satchel Paige. Maybe Cobb clears his name off the list of great racists.

His name was already cleared by some scholarly work over the past few years.

but cannon demands he not be invited to play at the field

POCs and women now playing key roles. Kevin Costner character now played by gender fluid woman and Shoeless Joe played by Will Smith.

This is where you fuck it up. The FOD game as a one off, is good. Having it every year will kill it. The movie was about a relationship between a dad and son. Leave it there. If you wanna make like 15min youtube videos of dead players interacting and playing ball, that is fine.

michael schur was once a pretty good writer but he is just another cog in the industry that will put his name to anything.

the very idea of turning this into a series of any kind is indicative of how saturated streaming services has made of the medium.

This FOD reboot would probably be better if it were written by Michael Scarn.

I mean what's the point of the Cubs playing a game in Iowa. They already have a minor league affiliate there so why bring in another minor league team?

let's put that one on ice to save up for next year's cubs section

I just started bingeing The Office so I get the reference.

If they really want to keep the magic and do another FOD game next season, make it an Old Timers game the Sunday night before the All Star game.

I think the only way it works is if the White Sox are in it every year and only against teams that were around in the 1920s.

next time it should be the white sox/cincinnati reds.

Next year should be a no brainer. Sox vs Reds.

I like the idea of the White Sox hosting every year.

But...

By the end of the movie, there are players from that whole era on the field.

_________________

Sox just keep hosting until the ratings go down. Ride it. Don't fix what isn't broken. Reds next year. Dodgers the year after. Maybe have that day as Jackie Robinson Day. This could be milked for at least a couple years.

Theoretically, the Reds will be good next year and the Dodgers are always good.
