    How sacred can this building be when they make a ceremony out of painfully whacking the walls & windows little by little with a wrecking ball?!
    Why couldn't they inplode the thing, get it over with quickly, get it done in one swift, dignified gesture?! What a pathetic event.

    I am truly saddened. I have some many great memories of going to games with my dad. Remember 71-72, they sucked so bad they were giving the tickets away. Remember the time out at the first free throw in the round one playoff games against the Buffalo Braves in 78. That was MY PRETZEL in the lane that caused the time out!!!!
