Maybe it's just me, but the second most glaring question about this pic...

I believe staying with the wood color was a compromise between baseball and football. Baseball wanted something darker (either forest green or maroon), football wanted something lighter (preferably white). Both were most interested in creating contrast between the wall and their respective ball. So, they had to meet in the middle.
Please tell me he is not being serious with what color the walls should be. They had to have a compromise on the color of the unfinished plywood????? If you honestly believe that they think about the contrast between the color of the football or the baseball please rethinkyour posts....... GOOOOODDD LOOORRDD
Yea I can totally seeMullen and Cohenhaving an hour long convo about what color to paint the palmeiro center??? Here's an off the wall answer...how about we paintthe wallsone of our school colors????
Or maybe we should do some real research and see what color best contrasts with a football and a baseball.......give me a break

Have you no concept of contrasting colors? There's a reason why the batter's eye in center field is dark green. It allows the batter to actually see the ball clearly. The same concept would apply with a football. You can't have dark colored walls and expect players to be able to track a brown ball against it - especially running at full speed. It's pretty obvious the color that exists is a happy medium for both light and dark balls.

Just to simulate game day and all.

Of course they care about contrast with the ball in an INDOOR PRACTICE FACILITY! What a %%@$+$% dubmass!
Those colors have been used with uniforms, and other State color schemes before. Also, it should be enough of contrast to not blend in with baseballs, or footballs.

Yes they probably do care, but I just don't think they put up plywood around the palmeiro center for that reason. I mean honestly how well do you think you'd be able to see a whitish/yellowish baseball against that background....not very well in my opinion
and are showing your ignorance. The plywood is there to protect the walls. This is not a fan area, it's a work area so aesthetics are not the primary concern. A baseball is not "yellowish" it is white (and will turn brown outdoors but again, indoor practice facility). A football is brown. When looking for the single color that will provide the best contrast for both a white baseball and a brown football that color is yellow (black would work too but would be creepy along every wall of a building).
The biggest problem here though is that you don't mind popping off on people even though you are an ignorant dubmass. Perhaps lurking a while longer would be a good thing for you.
