DITTO.... I say to everything you just said. As a Yankee fan,
I go way back to 1947. One of the greatest Yankee-Dodger World
Series was played that year, and as an 8 year old, it made me
a "die-hard" New York fan. I still recall many exciting games
I was at in Yankee Stadium during the '50s and early '60s.
I haven't gone to the Stadium much since the 1973 Old Timer's
game (saw Mantle's very last HR....Whitey Ford grooved one to
him). And, I can't stand Steinbrenner, but if he builds a new
stadium very like the old ballpark, I might just modify my at-
tiude towards him.
As Kevin Costner said...."if they build it, they will come".
And, it has to remain YANKEE STADIUM....not some coporate name
