Padres President Garfinkel: "I've never seen a more exciting team."
XX Sports Radio: Tom Garfinkel Interview (MP3)
- Garfinkel loves the idea of making Petco Park home to a Major League Soccer team. They are looking at different field configurations to see if they can fit a football field in Petco. Looking at bringing a bowl game in but it might require some construction. It is still a couple years away and in the very early stages.
- It's College Night tonight in the upper right field reserved with 2-for-1 tickets. Everybody was really well behaved last time.
- Padres are hosting a "Salute to the Negro Leagues" luncheon today.
- Kyle Blanks bobblehead is tomorrow, but while he's on the DL he is still an important part of the team. "We're proud of Kyle and he has a great future with us." Bobblehead should really be twice the size of the others.
- Heath Bell wants his own bobblehead night. He's a real classy guy.
- Tom brought a sick child into the clubhouse last week and the team was really nice to him. The whole team is made up of great guys.
- Tom is spending Father's Day at the park with his kids. They are going to try and bring some of the players dads out on the field.
- "I've never seen a more exciting team." Every play matters in these games and the team is playing their hardest. "I'm just filled with pride to be part of this whole thing."
- Go on Padres.com and get $5 off per ticket if you buy them in advance.

Petco.
Where the pets go.
For what it’s worth, Indy loves Petco and is planning on coming out to the Dog Days of Summer game.

No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong about that.

Well
France seems to be the most screwed of the teams in the tournament, so, yes, they will keep themselves.

"While BlanKs in on the DL"
He’s been out of the lineup for 3 straight days at AAA.

No DH
Apparently they don’t feel the arm is healthy enough for him to play the field. However, the last game he played he was out in the field. Perhaps he had a setback.
On a more positive note, James Darnell is back up with San Antonio after his rehab in Fort Wayne.

Getting tix for $12 this week WAS pretty sweet.

That's what they did with PGE Park in Portland
And look what happened. I’ve seen baseball and football games there, and I know there were soccer games. Now it’s going to be a full time MLS stadium. LAME-O

Damn it, the whole trying to call soccer football thing made me do the exact opposite.
I’m pretty dyslexic or something. Tardcore, for sure.

They should call it No Hands Ball anyway.

Petco hosted a Mexico-Sweden Soccer game already.

No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong about that.
Bolts from the Blue - General Manager: It is what it isn't
If it did host an MLS team
I think you’d need to have some temporary seating that goes out in left field. That’s what they did at AT&T for the Emerald Bowl (which as TTG sort of pointed out was for football not soccer or futbol).

No, I don't think you're an idiot. Please don't go trying to prove me wrong about that.

I can only assume this would translate to more scarves.

I'm all for expanding soccer in the US.
But combo soccer/baseball stadiums are not the way to go. 22 cleated soccer players running everywhere and tearing divots all over the field is bad for the baseball players, and covering up the dirt/mound with uneven, unnaturally seamed sod is bad for the soccer players. Plus the seating is awkward for fans. They did this at RFK for awhile and neither the Nats nor DC United liked it.
Stick them at Qualcomm or something.
whats this "qualcomm" you speak about?
Is it anything like the murph?
