Still Can't Grow That Grass in the Dome Yet

An entirely dirt infield is hoped by many to be the first step toward having a natural grass surface in Toronto. Since the park opened, only small areas -- a few square feet around the bases -- are dirt. Even the only fully domed stadium still in use in the majors, Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Fla., uses an all-dirt infield. Rogers Centre is something of a throwback to the 1970s and 1980s, when domed stadiums such as the Kingdome in Seattle and the Astrodome in Houston had infields with artificial base paths.

It's nice to know we still have the best ball yard in the majors, with no corporate sponsored name.

Or a corporate owner that sticks their name on the building as self advertisement.

I'd be fine with a Verizon sign on the stadium if it meant adding Upton.

Absolutely, Camden Yards now and forever.

Ads are fine, but never change the name.

The ghost of Mr. Wrigley says "Pshaw! I earned it!"

Or both.

Nothing's sacred if it means revenue earmarked to meaningfully increase the roster payroll.

Why would it be earmarked? It wouldn't be. It would go into the gross.

I think a few things are sacred, one of those being the warehouse.

The Dempsey sign makes me cross

I tapped, I talked, I conquered.

Not like that, like a huge Verizon or Comcast sign. Something that would make you puke if you saw it.
