    Thats cool.

    It’s already a cathedral. Michael Kay tells us that during every commercial selling tickets.

  3. DYNASTY IS DESTINY!

    Does anyone know of any sites besides YankeePhotos.com where you can see construction pictures of Yankee Stadium?

    It seems there are many places on the Web to see New Yankee Stadium construction pics, but hardly any where you can see construction pics of the original “House that Ruth Built.”

    The Pope should run out of the bullpen to Enter Sandman

    I hope he blesses the friggin place before he leaves. Maybe the Yanks can start winning some games when they get home.

    The Pope should run out of the bullpen to Enter Sandman.”

    Oatmeal is now all over my monitor.

    Enter Sandman - LOL.

    Bill Maher put it best: if the Pope were the CEO of chain of day care centers which had hundreds/thousands of employees molesting its charges, and then routinely covered for said employees instead of turning them over to the authorities, he’d be in jail, not starring on a road trip.

    It’s pictures from this angle that help explain how Yankee Stadium worked as as a football stadium.

    Yankee Stadium was a cathedral long, long before anyone got the idea to hold some church service there.

    cw, the photo is totally misleading and distorted due to cramming as much into the photo as possible. right and left field upper levels look parallell, but they aren’t even close if you look at a bird’s eye photo. it looks like the polo grounds almost.
