And he now only very occasionally tees it up backwards and cranks it into the parking lot.

The dealership was very interesting. Buttoned down and unbuttoned at the same time. Idk, I guess it depends. Imo you don't buy a rolls to drive a rolls. You buy a rolls to be driven in a rolls. If I'm going to drive it I agree there are much better options but driving a Ferrari in ATL traffic can't be fun and it has to be nerve wracking AF. I'd rather have something fun, but not crazy that i can thrash to death without ruining an investment and that I can navigate through a city without worrying too much about door dings at the grocery store.

Why even bring the Rolls to the airport in the first place? Get a car to drive you there. Get your boy to bring the Rolls home. Take an Uber. Ride the damned MARTA. Anything. If you were willing to pay for three weeks of parking at an airport it should have at least occurred to you that renting a giant ass limo to take you there and pick you up would be cheaper. Rolls aside. I know I get my Rolls mixed up with the others in the parking garage all the time.

Let's entertain this notion for a minute. Increasing the capacity of Sahlen's to the 45k that it was built for is a mistake. Building a multi-purpose bowl is also a mistake because the capacity of that will have to be at least 65k to accommodate football. You'll have acres of empty seats most of the time which is a bad look but they are also terrible seats for baseball. They'd be better off building a park that fits a snug 30k. PNC Park fits 38k in Pittsburgh. As a team, you want it to be a little bit of a tough ticket to get all the time and with the sports viewing habits of the public seemingly changing a smaller ballpark day to day will serve them better than having something with 15k more seats that they have to give away in April and when the team is bad. Does that mean tickets will be more expensive? Yes it does. Something that befits the architecture of the city and is very intimate and a little quirky. Cantilever the upper deck over the lower one as close as you can get it to the field. Make it feel like the stands are right on top of you. Give it that band box feel (with legitimate field dimensions) and when the team is good the atmosphere will be electric. The lack of open concourses in the current stadium is a bummer you didn't realize was a bummer until you go somewhere that has them. There of plenty of times I'll go to a game and not even sit in my seat for a couple innings. I'll got wander the concourse, have a beverage, and watch the game from different vantage points along the way.

10 rows behind the dugout is good in pretty much any baseball stadium. go up to the top level anywhere. I went to the Vet and Three Rivers lots of times. Esstenially the same. They sucked. A lot.

Those combo stadiums never work and they have basically all been replaced at this point. The dimensions of baseball and football don't work well together to build a good stadium for both. You end up with a bad stadium for two sports. The stadium is usually round which is terrible for everything, for baseball you end up with massive amounts of foul territory with seats miles from the field. For football the seats closest to the field end up being the endzones and your prime seats are the furthest away. I hope you were kidding but anyone who ever went to the Vet or Three Rivers or Riverfront or Busch Stadium or Fulton County Stadium or the Astrodome or the Metrodome or Candlestick Park or RFK Stadium or the Kingdome, or old Anaheim Stadium, or Alameda County Stadium, or Shea Stadium know I'm right. All of those places were terrible to watch a game in.

The money they are spending is on ballplayer stuff. Not on revenue generating items. The stadium USED to be the model of AAA baseball, it's not even close to that anymore and it's not even close to any of the newer MLB parks

New Episode of Bills Embedded 5/20

If only they could work the vaccine into it... -
No and no No So close. Science

It's one of the oldest parks in AAA these days.

Let's start with this. You'd be building a new ballpark, not enlarging the current one. No MLB team is going to permanently relocate into a 33 year old stadium.

More like Bruce missing a playoff game because he didn't get a flu shot. A playoff game the Bills then lost. You want to champion players doing x y and z that's fine. Take that player, fast forward to next January and have that player be unavailable for a playoff game or God forbid the Super Bowl because they didn't do this. If you are still ok with that then fine.
