RANDOM MUSINGS - Notre Dame @ Yankee Stadium?

Originally posted on 5/21

So Notre Dame wants to play football at Yankee Stadium again. Hey why not, the scores of the games played there are more like football games anyway.

Remember when we used to draft offensive guys just because they signed in Colorado. Hey, Jay Payton put me over the top in my league in 2003 going 28-89-.302 and led me to a title. Remember when we used to stay away from pitchers like they had the plague when they signed there? Darryl Kile (RIP)…, Mike Hampton?

At Coors Field they now put the baseballs in humidors so they don’t go as far (or something like that.) I never understood why storing baseballs next to cigars in a cedar room had an effect on a baseball game the next day. But that’s just me I guess.

Are roto participants in 2010 draft rooms across America (and Canada I think) going to be tripping over themselves to obtain the Mekly Cabrera’s of the world because they play at Yankee Stadium? Are you now going to pay 50% less for C.C. Sabathia? We will have to wait and see I guess. But I’ll tell you this. If Notre Dame starts kicking 70 yard field goals in Yankee Stadium, you might be doing just that. – Keith A. Baker
