Its starting...

And for the most Frivlous reasons of all.

What the hell is wrong with RFK? Hasn't it sat idle for long enough?

Nothing new look at the history of Chavez Ravine and Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles(but beware of the lefts spin in some of the history)

RFK is a great baseball stadium - it just lacks the number of expensive luxury boxes that corporations buy. Those boxes are where a team makes all the money.

This was recognized as a legitimate e-d taking before Kelo. Mostly because the city owns the property and leases it. Often the stadium parking lots do double duty. Pittsburgh makes a good chunk of change leasing the parking spaces to commuters during the daytime.

And for the most Frivlous reasons of all.

Excuse me, but since when is basey-ball frivolous? Oh, you mean the Nationals...and, like, a DC team. OK, I get it.

Seriously, we used to kid about floating a bond issue to pay players' salaries. Little did we know truth would be much more sinister. But you know, if they had to buy the land in a fair market, they could never match the Yankees' payroll...

all gallows humor. the judge should be dethroned and send back to the ghetto.

it's falling apart and it is a pitchers ballpark. That won't generally put butts in the seats.....
