Hey, I know the story isn't about aluminum, but now I want to know!
Speaking of unholy baseball-related items (aluminum bats annoy me), I see the Mets plan to sell their stadium-naming rights to Citigroup for about $20 million a year (according to the Associated Press). The AP story suggests the new stadium will be named CitiField. The deal is said to be for 20 years, long enough that maybe people will realize how silly looking two words smushed together with a capital letter in the middle can be.
Especially when one of those words isn't even spelled correctly.
Of course, I think the Mets stink, so maybe the name is a perfect fit!
