We want to see the same lumpy, grimy, dented, beat up Apple that's been sitting behind the center field wall in Shea Stadium for 27 years."
I actually would be quite happy with a cleaned up and repaired Apple.
I took the Citi Field tour on Thursday, and the tour guide specifically said there would be an apple. But for the mojo, it must be The Apple. |
Have the last 26 years been so great that we need to keep this rotting symbol of futility in a shiny new ball park?
I'm as sentimental as the next guy, but come on.
