Jay Jaffe won't miss Yankee Stadium.

When the time comes, I'll miss exactly one thing about [A's baseball at the] Oakland Coliseum: its proximity to where we live.

Then again, in the 1990s I was aghast at the condition of Fenway Park, mainly how unhygienic it all was. I had no desire to see taxpayers buy a new stadium, but I just didn't see how the "Save Fenway Park" movement could succeed. Apparently the new [as of earlier this decade] ownership did a tremendous job, though.
