    I know it's fruitless, but I so wish this could happen. Tear down the glass palace, replace it with a major-league stadium with views of the river and of the downtown skyline (I can already picture how gorgeous it could be). I so would love to be able to take my kid to MLB games without having to drive 300 miles...
