I would go for something with a bit more imagery. That site is a bit text heavy as it stands. Good luck with it.
I don't templates as i do my own designs...but i think what he means is just not have it so plan. Maybe a light background image coming into the white space (a player maybe)...plus a more exciting header. You would probably need to do this yourself as a template wouldn't cut it.
Nice site, whilst easy to navigate. Could do with sprucing up i.e adding more pics/colour Best of luck with your site! Kind Regards
If you can find this, by Brian Gardner, it is great for fan sites, I think you could really bring the colors, and the logo out. It used to be premium, but lately he has made a line of open source themes, and it has been tough to find downloads of his old stuff. It seems as if they are only available through bit torrent sites, and links. http://premium-wordpress-theme.com/revolution-sports-wordpress-theme/
