After reading about the home plate moving from one Yankee Stadium to another, I decided to check out Yankee Stadium on Google Earth, just for kicks. I discovered two interesting things: one, there is a game happening in the picture, judging by the people in the stands, and two, I can’t find the new Yankee Stadium. Can someone familiar with the area check it out and assure me that the view is old, i.e. before they started building the new one?

i just looked at google maps, and the new yankee stadium is located on the land where that large track is and where those cars are parked. it’s definitely an onld image because construction preparation hadn’t even begun. you can compare the google maps image to this one:

Did Tony K just say these are BOTH giant franchises? It’s quite popular to rip the Lions, but the Cards are the worst franchise in pro sports history. The only reason they aren’t routinely ripped as such is that they are so irrelevant their futility is simply forgotten.

when and where was the last cardinals home playoff game?

That’s nothing. If a “good” season is defined as a 10 win year, just how many good seasons have they had since 1976? Hint: Dunkin’ sells ‘em. Of course they did have three in a row (74-76) so what did they do when the coach went 7-7 in 1977? Fire him and bring in Bud Wilkinson.

You can talk about goats, bambinos but nothing kills like a Bidwell.

actually i was going for chicago, 1947

Well yeah, that the more recognized futility, but my point was it merely scratches the surface.

This is one of the worst games I’ve ever seen. Entertaining yes, but who wants to win? Can the officials f-up anymore? Stay tuned!

There are two players on the whole field (#13 & #81) the rest should be in Saskatchewan.

#13, #18 & #11.

13, 81 & 11. ok, done.

Ok, I’m not sure which announcer said it, but “longer than you were born”? Really?

And I get mixing up “longer than you’ve been alive” and “since before you were born,” but doing it three times in a row?

A Tony K gem. Steve Young just said “Wuss”. I know it’s cable and it’s 12:15, but I don’t think S&P approves.

Steve must be reading from the Mike Demone/Fast Times at Ridgemont High dictionary: “You are a wuss, part wimp part pussy”

The evolution of field hockey unis is actually pretty interesting…starting as a long skirt and sweater cuz it wasn’t appropriate for women to wear pants, then continually shortening, then a brief switch to shorts (at least in my area), then a fairly immediate change back to skirts. Basically, what started as society saying”you have to be proper” turned into players saying “we’re proud of our skirts”

Oh, and don’t even get me started on goalie equipment…the technology and selection (think pink leg pads) is amazing.

terri…

ok…i’ll bite…im most interested in working in a weekend thread on field hockey…if you’re interested, send an e-mail to phecken(at)yahoo.com

Just think: if the Niners actually had a quarterback, they might actually have a lead.
