    I like San Fran more than camden.

    Unfortunately haven't been to Camden Yards yet, but AT&T Park in San Fran is my favorite out of the 14-15 ballparks I've been to. PNC in Pittsburgh is a close 2nd.
    Yeah, I loved everything about it. Sat up behind homeplate to get a good view of everything. Awesome place. Good food and beer. 21st amendment right down the street

    Want to get to PNC. Hear awesome things about the stadium
    San Fran's park is pretty sweet. Been there once, about 10 years ago. Haven't been to PNC yet.

    I'd go PNC over Camden, and I think I gotta go CBP over Camden - and that's not entirely bias either.

    Seattle was pretty badass, too, but definitely gotta get to San Fran.

    Yeah, I definitely gotta hit up Seattle, Camden Yards, and Philly. A friend of mine has been to every MLB stadium and he said Seattle is his favorite. Oakland was obviously the worst

    I think the atmosphere around the stadium counts, which makes oriole park better than the solar panel farm surrounding cbp.

    remember our miller park visit? that's definitely the oddest mlb park I have been to

    There's nothing more overrated than K Lot. It's the Sea Isle, OD, No-Shower-Happy-Hour, flipped collared golf shirts with boat shoes, douchiest place. Though, Bar Mall is making a considerable run.

    I like our setup because it's easy to get there and out without a problem, yet people act like it's soooo far from the city center. 15 minute subway ride, boom, you're there.

    I know if they built the ballpark in Chinatown, or somewhere else downtown - after futher review - it would have been absolutely awful. Because people in this area, outside of the city proper, feel the need to drive to EVERYTHING. Hence, it would've been a shit show at least 81 days out of the year.

    Dude next to me at work, who lives in Jersey, told me how his neighbor planned on tailgating at the Eagles practice at Franklin Field. People like this should be shot.

    It seems like they have the option to open the windows and roof there in Milwaukee, but instead they keep them close and it smells like fat cheese curd sweat in there. Alls I know is beer, and green (hehe), is very very very cheap in Wisco, which I very much appreciated.

    And the tailgates were bizarre - just leaving all their shit in the parking lot. Very odd.

    Hamels' house up for sale. Probably doesn't mean a fucking thing, but here's to hoping Amaro is fired in the offseason, competent GM comes in, and trades Cole for something worthwhile.

    Haha yeah that is true. They do play tomorrow. Don't know what time. Don't think she can pitch though. I know she can start the 3rd game. It's wild how good she is an how easy she makes it look. Just mows down these kids. They have to be so pissed

    Though I love to pile on Rube, not a bad silver lining to get in return for a 1-year pitcher so far, along with another to come:
