Ridiculous, contain Bonds? He hit a ton of 400+ foot homers in the Q, silly to think you try to stop a guy that plays 10 or less times a year there. I think that is the key for all these stadiums, nice indeed, but massive upgrades over the last park. I think back to what a sorry dump Candlestick was, how horrible it was to be in the Kingdome on a beautiful sunny summer day (yes it gets sunny often in Seattle during the summer) and now this upgrade over the Q which had to be one of the worst places to watch a game unless it was packed. I never saw Toronto's old stadium, but that was an obvious ugrade. Memorial Stadium was kinda ugly too, but back then no one had any idea what was possible. I look forward to seeing PETCO next month, although I did see it back in November when it was almost done and it does look nice. Kind of strange though for anything that isn't in San Francisco, having not an ounce of parking around there. Considering San Diegans with money almost completely ignore transit that has to be a nightmare. At least in SF the people use transit quite frequently. I would imagine the parking costs more than a lot of the tickets.
