You'll pass over the money without even thinking about it: for it is money you have and peace you lack. And you'll walk out to the bleachers; sit in shirtsleeves on a perfect afternoon. you'll find you have reserved seats somewhere along one of the baselines, where you sat when you were young and cheered your heroes. |

Fuck the 8000 capacity. It should be authentic. Just a couple sets of bleachers, no dugouts, Cornfield as the outfield wall. Handheld cameras. Why not go the whole 9 yards? |

Last I heard the 2 families were operating the site separately. I guess I had a HY moment as back in 2007 the Lansing family bought the other property and it was since been a single site. this should be a cool event. |

They better wear throwback uniforms. They should really take it way back and offer standing room only in RF or LF. |
