Can someone please explain to me why the fine city of New York is standing for the demolition of Yankee stadium? Is NYC not the proudest, almost to a fault, city in this country? Do Americans fear leaving behind any sort of lasting legacy? I am convinced we are a country destined to leave behind no proof of our existence. I expect this somewhere such as Las Vegas, where everything is worthless and fake anyway, but the temple of baseball? The shrine to the greats of America's pastime? What a shame.
