See ya, Bob

Bank One Ballpark is getting a new name.

That's fine by me. I never liked the old one.

Something about calling it "Ballpark" always bugged me. Call it Field. Stadium. Even just Park. But not Ballpark.

Oh sure, I know it was chosen so they could have the catchy acronym, but I think BOP could have worked, too. "Let's all bop down to the BOP!"

Okay, maybe not. Still, I don't like "Ballpark". And if they stick with it and call it Chase Ballpark, I'll like it even less. At least now, you can just call it BOB. But what do you call it then? And what will happen to Baxter the BOBcat?

Then again, I never liked the BOBcat idea, either.

I'm still pissed my tax money paid for it. I won't go there no matter what they call it and I won't bank at B1 or Chase.

Not even for an indoor freestyle contest with a giant pool set-up?
