That's me!!! My wife's office overlooks the construction of this thing and it is going to cause traffic issues of monumental proportions. There is no parking for this stadium right off the expressways, they are going around to office buildings trying to create deals with their parking. Fingers crossed it turns into an additional 81 days of working from home.

Why are the Braves even getting a new stadium? Turner Field only has to be about 20 years old, right?

Edit: I just checked, this is Turner Field's 19th season open. Fucking ridiculous...

Was at Turner for the Cubs game, nice place. Does not look dated at all, but it does have the feel off the last cookie cutter stadium. I beleive afffter Turner you got Coors Field and Camden Yards setting the standard for new stadiums.

Cobb county has over half of the season ticket holders and 75% of them live North of the City. They wanted to get closer to them while distancing those people from the city. For God sake, they intentionally picked a site not covered by their rail system, and Cobb has basically said public transit while never come here. Atlanta is encircled with a interstate called the perimeter. The rail system cuts across like cross-hairs N/S and E/W meeting in downtown atlanta. They are putting the stadium at the NW corner if the cross hairs were to make a compass.

Turner Field is the track and field stadium from the 1996 Olympics, re-opened as a ballpark for '97. Camden Yards and Coors Field came before it.

Speeps ... as you probably are aware, we both know someone that actually has that shirt, which I think is great and wish I had because the vast majority of people won't have the first idea what the hell it means (which is fine), but of the small subset of people that would (a) recognize those guys' profession, (b) recognize who they are individually, and (c) recognize the team's moniker, we then have a further branching off of those who would then either be (i) entertained immensely or (ii) horribly offended about it ... and with subset (ii) they would then have to decide if they wanted to out themselves as enough of a fan of old-timey pro wrestling to know (a), (b), and (c) - and risk ridicule from the general populace for it - and then to get outraged over a frigging shirt - again, risking ridicule for being a sensitive dickwagon.

It's such a potential treasure trove of dark humor and/or discomfort from so little effort.

I'm a bad person.
