How's the stadium? it looks nice on Tv.
Also hears another question what baseball stadiums have people been to?
Heres the stadiums ive been to
Network Coliseum A's- it's okay but since it's also a football stadium the seats are far away from the field and you always have to watch out for some of the left over Raider Nation freaks.
White Sox- I don't remember much about the stadium except it was kinda ugly.
Me and my dad took a baseball trip about two years ago to Boston, New York and Seattle.
Fenway- I have a little story behind this, we stayed at Boston for about 4 days the first 3 days had perfect weather and of course on the fourth day when we had tickets it was like a typhoon outside. The rain was off and on so they weren't sure if they were going to play, so they turn a game on the big screen and of course it's Yankees v Devil Rays and on every strike or out the Boston faithful cheered and every ball or hit they would boo. They canceled the game and then we found out that we had the tickets for the day before's game where the weather was perfect. I loved Fenway for the history but my dad thought it was a dump which was true but it was a historic dump. On a side note if you ever bring a kid to Fenway don't go in the bathroom because there's a lot of Jeter sucks ****, Jeter's a ***** and Yankee's suck on the walls.
Yankee's stadium- You know everybody says that Yankee stadium has a aura about it but I felt more aura in Fenway than I did in Yankee stadium. I guess one of the reason was it was 90 to 95 but New York had huge humidity so it felt like 110. The game I went to Jime Thome hit his 7th or 8th consecutive home run.
Safco Mariners- I like the stadium very cossy, and my dad loves it altougth there's nothing that really stands out.
SBC Giants- I must say that im lucky because my first game ever to a Giants game was Barry's 600 home run and the seats were sick. They were five to six rows behind the Pirates dougout. I have pics so maybe I can scan them.
not sure why they were playing named old braves players but the braves arnt doing that bad but they have a lot of good competition this season its a 4 team race for the division braves are only 3.5 games back but i jsut dont see them taking it this year
Philadelphia 39-35
Florida 40-36
New York 36-38
Atlanta 36-39
Montreal 25-49

By any chance were you near the two guys that caught the ball? I remenber those two fighting over it and they even went to court. I love SBC park! Especially those Garlic fries. 😄

hey badsymbiote,whats up, nice to meet u too..
whats everybody's favorite teams?
and one more question who are the M's?(sry)
Don't be sorry-i think it's cool that you're asking. It's the mariners, in case you didn't figure it out on your own. My AL (american league) faves: WEST-Mariners CENTRAL-chisox (chicago white sox) and detroit tigers EAST-toronto blue jays, yankees and tampa bay devil rays (huge potential)--NL (national) faves--WEST dodgers CENTRAL st louis cardinals and chicago cubs EAST--the mets, i guess. Mike Cameron's been a good addition to their outfield. this roster is starting to play like it should.
Hey! Don't be mean to me, I'm still recovering from the Freddy Garcia trade. This one may be worse than when we dealt away Jason Varitek and Derek Lowe for was it Heathcliff Slocumb? Oh, God--that one STILL pisses me off. Lincoln has made it a personal mission to get rid of Freddy since he won that salary arbitration thing 2 years ago. Good luck to Freddy. I hope he gets better run support in chitown. I hope he just kills.
Great Red Sox Yankees game. Still nothing is better than that matchup.
I picked the Red Sox to win the world series, but if they don't get Ortiz to DH and get a good fielding 1st baseman they will be in big trouble in a playoff series. When you look at past champions they all had good fielding 1st basemen and Ortiz is just too much of a liability on defense.
They could always put Mirabelli as the c and have Varitek play 1b--or vice versa. Redsox have the studliest catcher tandem in the league. I missed the game--d*mn--I forgot all about it--instead I was watching "Ed, Edd, and Eddy" on the cartoon network. 😮
Many afternoons do I while away watching good, quality, mind-numbing animated entertainment.

I love baseball but I don't know if I could watch it if Randy went to the Yankees, well probably I would watch but it would be disgusting. There's also rumors that the Giants might get him. Just think of the one two punch of Schmidt and Randy would be.drooliodrooliodroolio
I can't believe the Halos have fallen behind in West! I love the Angels but for them falling behind is atrocious! How can a team that at one time had the most wins in the AL West this season have taken sucha a fall? Most of the team is healthy (except for Glaus) and they look good on paper, but they can't seem to take that into the field. Something is very unbalance with this ballclub. Either Sciosia or Bud Black need to get more strick on the players or else this will be another bad season.
There has been rumors that Arte has been talking to Randy about coming to the Halos. Since Arte is very familiar with the Dbacks organization is very possible something might happen. Randy can still pitch for another 2 years so I don't see any reasons why he should retire too soon. I wonder if he will end his career with a AL team.

I didn't think the Angels starting pitching was all that great at the start of the season, but Bartolo Colon has just been pitching terrible which is so weird since he has been a stud for so many years. I see the A's and Angles battling for the west while Texas starts to fall. Texas will be scary in years to come if they can get some pitching, but I don't see them keep putting the monster offensive number in the 2nd half of the season as pitchers will make adjustments to their hitters.

those are completely false rumors they have said they have absolute 0% interest in trading him.. and he has no interest in leaving
what do you know freddy got a win his first game out of seattle... and its because the white sox gave him run support how much exactly? they gave him the same number seattle did in his last 5 starts combined...
