Slice, Nash and Yankeevol talk Yankees baseball and others talk about how bad the Braves suck

[Orangeslice13]

Cole is back tonight.
Reds already sporting her jersey.

 

[NorCalVol67]

Go O’s!

Would have gone tonight, but the Vols game takes precedence. And tickets were stupid expensive.

 

[NashVol11]

The Yankees had a promotion before the season where tix to certain weekday games were like $4. So I got cheap tix to June 18 and 19 because Baltimore is good, and now it's the Cole return day lol

My Cardinals will be at Yankee stadium Labor Day weekend.

 

[Orangeslice13]

Not going our way tonight.
Clearly this is somehow @NashVol11 s fault

Let’s take a moment to appreciate The Ted and what it meant for the future of ballparks.

Huh?

Camden Yards ushered in the new era of traditional ballparks.

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

The Ted was how to do everything wrong with a sports stadium....

No control over parking
Marta too far away
Rough part of town
Outdated
Not near customers
No control over development around stadium

Huh?

Camden Yards ushered in the new era of traditional ballparks.

Camden Yards didn’t have a brew pub until 2012. The Ted opened with one in 1997. It had a view of the field. The Ted had a one-seat wide section in the upper deck for which seats were $1.00. It was the crown jewel of MLB when it opened and prompted renovations to many other parks. It also set the bar for new construction.

No, the Atlanta Fulton County Recreational Authority set the standard for what not to do.

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

There's a reason why the Ted didn't last 20 years....

 

[Tin Man]

The Atlanta Fulton County Recreational Authority is the reason that The Ted is no longer home to the Braves.

 

[NorCalVol67]

There's a reason why the Ted didn't last 20 years....

Exactly.

 

[GordonC]

Imma gon blame the Gwinutians

Edit: Fahr em all

 

[Tin Man]

Exactly.

You and mojo can give each other hand jobs.

Camden Yards ushered in the new era of traditional ballparks.

And is still the best one out there that I’ve been to

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

You don't need close to 200 million in renovations 15 years in.....

The two are not comparable. Camden is so much better.

Camden opened well before Turner field and was the inspiration for the new wave of ballparks.

The executive leadership of the Gwinnett Stripeholes are their own ineptitude.

No need to project your fantasies.

Feeling the deep quiver there, NorCal?

 

[BigOrangeMojo]

The TED was a non descript, poorly planned stadium that became obsolete very quickly...
