BigA,
I am not happy with the ton of buildings that get added to the Angel Stadium parking space if the Anaheim City sales it
to the Angels owner and group. I have always been a huge Angel fan forever. Getting into the Angel games has always
been so easy, and the parking was always so great. I am sure there will be a huge change to getting into the Angel
Stadium if all of those things get added to the Angel parking area. If you compare the Angel parking to Dodger parking,
they both currently have tons of space, and it is best for the fans. But when all of those buildings get added to the Angel
parking, it will be a huge change, and getting into the stadium will be much difficult. And traffic in that area will grow so
bad.
Between me and most of the Angel fans, we would love for the City of Anaheim to continue to own the Angel Stadium,
and keep it the way it is now. If the owner wants some updates to the Angel Stadium, that would be okay for the Angels.
But selling it to him, and all of those huge increases are not good for all of us fans. Selling it to him would be okay if he
never adds more buildings in the parking area. But, if the city does sell it to him, make sure no more buildings are
added, and he changes the name of the team from Los Angeles Angels back to Anaheim Angels. That is the team that
was the championship in 2002, and the team was owned by Disneyland. They did a huge change to the stadium when
they owned it, which is how beautiful it is now.
The owner should focus on better pitching then adding more buildings in the parking area. Mike Trout, who is the
greatest baseball guy in MLB, will never get a championship unless the Angels get much better pitching. That should be
what Arte Moreno should focus on instead of buying the Stadium and parking area.
