It Should Always Be Yankee Stadium
The Mets have sold the naming rights to their new ballpark to Citigroup. The stadium will be know as Citifield. What a slap in the face to Bill Shea, who had Shea Stadium named after him because of his role in bringing N.L. baseball back to New York. This deal makes me quite nervous about the name of the new Yankee Stadium. Yankee Stadium is an iconic name. There is no way the Yankees should sell the naming rights. It would be a travesty.
