An editorial in today's BOSTON GLOBE states that MA
Acting Gov. Paul Cellucci has "presented a rational economic
case for helping the Patriots renovate" Foxboro Stadium, but
that MA House Speaker Thomas Finneran's "demands are
beginning to look like an effort to make [Patriots Owner
Robert] Kraft an offer he can't accept" (BOSTON GLOBE,
10/9)....In Baltimore, Jon Morgan writes how added revenues
streams from new ballparks affect a team's on-the-field
success. For example, he notes that at Oriole Park at
Camden Yards, concession sales at "now routinely top"
$500,000, and could hit $750,000 for tonight's ALCS game
(Baltimore SUN, 10/9)....The family of Daniel Weber, who was
electrocuted nearly a year ago at Bank One Ballpark, is
suing contractors Perini Building Co. and Huber Hunt &
Nichols, as well as the Maricopa County (AZ) Stadium
District (ARIZONA REPUBLIC, 10/8).
