Things I Think ... (after an afternoon at Yankee Stadium)

1. Keep the majority of the Old (actually new, just not newest) Yankee Stadium in place.  Make people take public transportation to the games.   New York Subways are part of the experience.  It's also a bold public welfare statement. 
2. Yankee fans seems to be resigned to their fate this year.  The stadium crowd was barely electric for a Sunday afternoon sell-out.  
3. Derrick Jeter may be a singles hitter.  Brace yourself for this inevitable occurrence.
4. I have never trusted righties who try to hit spots not named Greg Maddux or Bob Tewksbury.  Brian Bannister tries to hit spots.  Thus, I do not now, nor ever will, trust Brian Bannister (or Ian Kennedy).
5. It is $9.50 for a Beck's Beer at Yankee Stadium.  This should be the subject of a Congressional investigation.
6. Yankee legend jerseys should NEVER have names on the back.  There was never a jersey manufactured with Ruth, Gehrig, DiMaggio, or Mantle pasted across the back that was actually worn by these men.  Let's try to be somewhat authentic folks.
