New Stadium: Wouldn’t this make sense?
1) Build the new Stadium in Bloomington close to the Mall of America.
2) Build some huge hotels, shopping malls, restaurants, Parking Garages in between New Stadium & Mall of America
3) Construct some easy mass transit (i.e. light rail) that would make it EASY to go back-and-forth between the New Stadium & Mall of America & new constructions in between the two.
4) Talk about a boost to the economy!

I think giving a professional ball player a car is stupid. It’d be cooler if they donated money (Equal to the value of the car) to a charity instead.

If I were ever a player (at the MLB level) and they tried to do that, I’d turn it down on national TV and donate the value myself.

Morneau got screwed again, this time by J.D.Drew in the MVP award. Besides not deserving it, why does Drew need that Four Wheel Drive he won, in Boston? There ain’t any snow there! ! !
And Tahoes run on Ethanol. They don’t have E85 in Boston either. The only kind of gas they make in Boston is from Beans!

Sorry that was uncalled for, but when I get riled up I resort to bathroom humor.

Right romer. But congrats to J.D. Drew anyway. You’ll never believe what I found on Wikipedia:

“J.D. Drew American Baseball Player.
Justin David Drew (born November 20, 1975 in Valdosta, Georgia) is a Major League Baseball right fielder for the Boston Red Sox”

Hamilton did better in the beginning, so he’s better than Morneau, right?

Also, the NL scored their 2 runs earlier in the game than the AL. And were also the first to score 3.

So naturally, they’re really the story of the All Star game, as they scored the first go ahead runs.
