I'm glad you are reviewing real baseball teams;) I think the Mets did need a new a stadium and I support them getting one, but I agree that public funding should not have been used. I find it astonishing that our money goes to pay to build stadiums and then we let private entities keep the profits from those stadiums. I think the Mets and Yankees should take a percentage of the their profits from the new stadiums and return the money to people who paid taxes. I cannot stand that our new stadium is "Citi" Field. I wouldn't want it to be called Mets Stadium because "ugh", but what was wrong Shea Stadium Second Stand? I also don't like the drastic decrease in seating available, but I understand that the profit motive necessitated it. I'm glad all their games are televised, because thanks to SNY, WPIX (or is it CW), and ESPN I never have to go to the stadium:). Shea was always cold until mid-June. Even sunny afternoon games could chill a bloke if the seat was in the upper decks (the best seats in my opinion). I guess they decided to keep that tradition:) (Congrats on smashing the Yankees this week:), I hope the Mets can keep that up this weekend.) Thanks for the mention.
