TIger Stadium is a Goner!

They can't do it can they? Oh yes they can if this artcle is any indication.

I so hoped they would save part of the stadium for a mueseum, save the field for kids to have a sort of "Field of Dreams" for the Tigers of old. but no, nothing is preserved, nothing cherished these days. Just tear away anything that once stood for something grand. Can they tear down Wrigley Field? How about tearing down the Green Monster at Fenway? Anything is possible I guess. At least the Yankees, and I really do hate them, did it right with their new stadium making it look like old Yankee Stadium. If the Tigers would have brought anything to the new stadium...over hang in RF or the closeness of the field and upper deck....something, but no we have a ferris wheel and merry-go-round! Wow, what a sad day it is.....Tiger Stadium....Ghosts of Tigers past, The Bird, Charlie Gerhringer, Hank Greenburg, Norm Cash...Rest in Peace....
