They Want To Destroy Yankee Stadium!?

[The Mad Monk]

The bastards want to tear it down!!!

I was listening to Bloomburg interviewed on WABC, and he was saying it could happen by 2006! Details were sketchy, but the new stadium, built across the street would be smaller by 7,000 seats, but have plenty of ****ing luxury boxes.

That stadium should be on the register of historic sites -- not torn down!

you dirty commie, standing in the way of the market.

What would it be used for Monk?

[ixnay]

hay guys lets hope the yankees are in it when they destroy it because lol yankees suck lol

[The Mad Monk]

Baseball, as God and Babe Ruth intended!

[Wezil]

So you would prefer no new stadium then?

[MRT144]

i dont know. yankee stadium is king of falling apart

[Wezil]

I'm all for preserving historical sites (and I have no doubt Yankee Stadium qualifies) but you must have a use/purpose for the building. Sitting unused is not an option.

On a related note.....

Maple Leaf Gardens is to be a grocery store.....

I'm all for just knocking it down without building a new one.

Aren't they going to build the ball park in Manhattan? Or was that a new Jets stadium?

Yankee Stadium is a treasure-there would be riots by Yankee fans if they try. And the stadium is not falling apart.

I don't care who you root for...Yankee stadium is an icon. Tearing it down would be a crime. At the least they should make it a museum. My preference would be a refurb if it needs one...and GePap says it don't and that's good enough for me. Play Ball!
