    - how is that fair? In and out of the machine is nothing. -- nm - loosilu Apr 16, 11:50 4

    - I hate measurements like this. I have no clue how many GB I use a month. -- nm - ty97 Apr 16, 12:21 2
      - They have a site to check your usage. That is how I know they are not measuring it yet. -- nm - GregW Apr 16, 12:26 1
        
        I'm with Comcast, but was considering switching based on Uverse promotions. - ty97 Apr 16, 12:26

  - SkyDome, Expo Stadium, old Yankee Stadium... that might be it?? -- nm - Andie Apr 16, 12:00

Red Sox and Yankees fan both have the best looking home ballpark in the majors. - Inigo Apr 16, 11:34 28
- you are so right. - Mel Profit Apr 16, 11:38 5
  - Do you remember those two douchenozzles that were being all territorial about their "seats" on the right field wall? - Inigo Apr 16, 12:11 4
    - I'm happy just to remember the park. (c: - Mel Profit Apr 16, 12:32 3
      - Yup, new concessions with a better selection of food, new jumbotron, they made the outside areas more accessible and prettier. - Inigo Apr 16, 12:39 2
        
        The new roof deck bar, which I've heard is nice. - the wrong element, bad guy Apr 16, 12:45
        
        sounds like they made it even nicer. - Mel Profit Apr 16, 12:41

        [deleted]
        
        I'd come down for that, if we can score cheap tix. -- nm - znufrii Apr 16, 11:44 9
        
        I'd go but I think the bus ride is like three to four hours each way. -- nm - Krusty Apr 16, 11:47 8
        
        [deleted] 4
        
        Might be a bit more than I'm willing to deal with. The train is way too expensive or I'd take that, it's like 2 and a half by train. -- nm - Krusty Apr 16, 11:57 3

        5 from NYC to downtown DC, iirc. But if you can make it to Philly, I'm more than happy to give people a ride. -- nm - znufrii Apr 16, 11:48 2
        
        That may be an option. If I had a license I'd rent or borrow a car and drive down with Jorge. -- nm - Krusty Apr 16, 11:58
        
        4.5 hours at the most, assuming you get crazy NYC and crazy DC traffic. -- nm - MDH Apr 16, 11:57
      - Nice. I hope you get to go to them all. Be careful in Philly, those people aren't right in the head. -- nm - Krusty Apr 16, 11:38 2
        
        Was really tempted to try and go for the Red Sox game this year - znufrii Apr 16, 11:42 1
