New Stadium
Well, well, well.
There has been tentative approval for a new Twins stadium.
Sweet.
Now we get to FREEZE OUR ASSES OFF at Twins games.
I wanted (at the very least) a retractable roof.
Can’t the ball players give up a portion of their salary or donate or something?
Wishful thinking, I know.
Maybe former Twins?
If I had the money, I’d pay for it.
Dang.
Open-air stadiums really don’t work well in this climate.
Can’t wait to hear all of the “Build It” pro-stadium folks whining like little babies the first time it snows during a game.
Suckers!

Since you regularly post spelling mistakes in my blog, I shall do so as well.
Oh dang you must have caught it already. On bloglines “hear” was “here.” :)
And by the way, I’m totally with you on the roof matter. And now the Vikes might not get a roof either, yet for some reason the NFL commissioner still says we’d have a shot at a SuperBowl (hosting). DUMB.

I totally agree about the roof. I really honestly don’t know how often I’ll buy tickets in advance once the new stadium is built, because there’s no way in hell I’m going to a game if it’s drizzling or snowing or anything else. I STILL don’t understand why the open roof.

I disagree… Baseball is played outdoors. It rains and snows outdoors. This means doubleheaders etc. So what if some idiot from outstate doesn’t want to risk coming in for a game? Whoop-de-doo,. It’s just as cold early in the season in Boston and Chicago. Their fans still show up. Why? Because they love baseball, that’s why.
