As many of you know, I've been a lone voice in the wilderness calling for a 21-st century replicate of Fenway Park. You know, no obstructed views, seats that actually accomodate real humans and cup holders for the masses. Of course, I've long ago given up the ghost, ever since the NOG rolled out their masterful marketing campaign to hide the fact that they didn't want to spend the money to build a real ballpark (although they found $475 million to buy a soccer team). Anyway, the Herald's Steve Buckley has written a brilliant piece on the issue, which exposes the scam of "America's Most Beloved Ballpark". We couldn't have said it better.
