...and so it ends

I fall into the Luddite category on new stadiums; I think they're unnecessary monuments to excess (although it can be argued that any new stadium is just that) by agreeing with what Gutenberg says above. The new Yankee stadium is demolishing all that history (it can be argued the most history of any sports team in the nation - if not the world (and this from a Red Sox fan)) to justify payroll. If that were the only thing that could be said about it, I wouldn't really care that much, but the taxpayer is paying the price. Big time.
