"If and when the Mets are offered a piece of the action" Offered a piece, forced to take one so as not to have totally sunk costs... it's all good!

Part of me likes it when people have original avatars, but I'm so used to associating posts based on the avatar I see, rather than reading the actual name of the poster.
So basically I'm saying, don't change, because I selfishly don't want to have to figure out who the hell you are when you change your avatar, haha.

New England have been using this approach for 20 years................................
Everything in the article has been said before, but the more press it gets the better. We need a SSS.

Side note: I was looking at articles talking about the process of converting the field from baseball to soccer. It seemed like they originally planned to remove pitcher's mound. Why did they decide against it? I mean, I know baseball is a priority but is it really that difficult to remove it and then put it back? If the mound was removed, how wide could we make the pitch?

It also doesn't meaningfully add any space since we'd still be butting against leftfield.
The real thing they could do is make the damn bullpen fence removable. We could definitely go bigger if they just took it down for our game
That's true to make it longer. Wider, though? Think you could swing it without that as you're only sliding out the sideline closest to outfield.
Seems like an easy fix, but I guess they don't give a shit about having a proper sized pitch.
Not the first time that has happened believe it or not.
With my new seats, I finally appreciate the bitching about viewing angles. From 126, I think everyone is offside the time.
I think someone on Toronto or SKC complained last that the field was not lined properly and seemed cooked.
What if an investigator notifies the City Council two weeks before the election that he is re-examining the case?
