    It wasn't sad to me. As great as the memories were in that stadium, I'm not sad to see these concrete tombs disappear.

    Actually you can have them saved on to your PC. I'm sure there are places that can do this for you.

    Hell, why stop there. With today's tech he could have himself deepfaked into the starting QB position instead of Bradshaw.

    You are really old when you worked there for the construction of TRS, then watch it blown up. Many, many great games there baseball and football, with world series, and playoff games.

    I watched.
    A Willie Stargell's 'dingers' went through my mind the most.

    The 71 World Series.... then the Immaculate Reception.
