    I was in a suite last night , owned by a very famous comedian.
    Was my first time at Citifield.

    Was so happy the Yanks won for a change.

    Some shots I took at beautiful CitiField

    Some Yank/Met alumni were right next to us, you might recognize them

    Hmmmmm. I wonder who. Was said comedian there?

    That is awesome though. How I would have liked to hang out with Doc and Strawberry 20 years ago. I gotta get to CIti Field. Have heard great things. Unlike Mall of America in the Bronx.

    Does that comedian have the same initials as James Spader?

    We give up 21 runs at home and then zero at Citi. I just don't know...

    John Sterling is the absolute worst. I keep saying it, but how the hell this franchise has such a joke of a radio guy is beyond me. He is going on and on about how he can't understand how fit athletes pull muscles. Dude clearly never played anything and while I typically hate the generic former player announcers, good god.

    Great day yesterday. What the hell did they do with Billy's? Did anyone have any idea there was that big of a building there. It is massive. I don't hate it, but much different than the old dive.

    There is nothing I enjoy more than sitting on my deck listening to the Yankees, but these two absolutely fucking butcher it.

    if we are talking about the same renovation I think it's been like that for a few seasons now. I remember them opening up that main level and adding glittery like columns (?) when I was still living in the Bronx. I preferred it was a dive bar. Feels like a dance club now.

    The biggest loss was the bowling ally bar. Loved that place before a game. My buddy and I used to have a 20 game season ticket package at the old stadium and on nights when it was a blow out or raining late in the game we used to leave the stadium and roll a couple games before heading to the subway to head home. That place was a gold mind. They must have really fucked something up to close. Guns, drugs. Who knows.
