A Big Apple

I couldn't have a blog about Shea Stadium without noting a post on metsblog.com via Long Island Met Fan about the new Citi Field apple.

I'm mixed on anything new replacing anything from Shea, especially when they replace something that wasn't put up for sale. But like everyting else at the Shea Stadium memorial ballpark, it needed to be replaced.

I think I'd be happy with the new apple if it doesn't obstruct anyone's view, if it isn't an eye-sore, it has no advertising, and it does something that won't distract them at the tennis center on a Mets homerun.

I could go on and on about the old and the new with regards to the ballparks.
