Rosenblatt Stadium is doomed

If you're not from Omaha, and here's hoping you aren't, then you probably didn't know that the longtime home of the College World Series - Rosenblatt Stadium - may soon be demolished.

City leaders and the NCAA are considering moving the tournament to a new stadium that would be built downtown. Under that scenario, Rosenblatt probably would be demolished. The College World Series has been going on there since 1950.

Well, you know some people are obviously pissed about this, because that's what we do here in America, we get pissed about ridiculous shit.

A group called Save Rosenblatt has formed and you're not going to guess who they've chosen to appear in local and potentially national ads to help make people aware about this incredibly important national issue. Kevin Costner.

Yes, the same man who's name on a film instantly gaurantees a box office flop. You are doomed Rosenblatt. You might as well just blow yourself up now.

But don't think Costner is going into this half-assed, here's his quote about what he's going to do.

"If I can help, I'm very willing to. I'll be a soldier."

Regrettably he didn't say he'd be a "f*cking soldier" but I'm glad to see Kellen Winslow Jr. finally will have some much needed company.

People unfortunate enough to live in Omaha could begin to see the commercials as early as the second week in September, and Save Rosenblatt hopes to air the spots in even more cities. The group is looking at big college baseball cities such as Los Angeles, Austin and Houston.

So there you go folks, better clear out your fall schedule, you won't want to miss TV this great.

Damn...I'm from Omaha, and I love arguing, so I'm tempted to talk some shit here. But Costner trying to save anything makes me hate it immediately. So fuck him and fuck Omaha.

The Blatt has history but the place is an absolute dump. Barely anyone goes to Omaha Royals games at all and you can find better concessions at a grade school softball complex.

But I'm from Omaha.

This isn't necessarily a bad thing at all. For all of Costner's overall suckitude, his one reverse-Achilles heel has been sports movies, specifically baseball movies. Surely the star of Bull Durham and Field of Dreams can do some good. Whatever Costner touches that is baseball-related turns to gold.

editor's note: For the Love of the Game never existed.

We reported it at The College Baseball Blog about a new Rosenblatt on July 9th...Kinda of an old story.

Yo Mac g, are you fucking dumb? The royals suck that is why no one goes. Has nothing to do with the blatt. The blatt is an awesome stadium for what its worth. I love going to the CWS and the july 4th fireworks games. Do i want a new stadium? Sure, I guess but Rosenblatt Stadium is like a landmark here. And to whoever wrote this article, FUCK OFF. I'm from Omaha and i love so go fuck yourself you stupid little piece of shit.

While I can appreciate the history that is Rosenblatt, the time has come to move on. We could spend more money fixing an old stadium, but no one in paying any attention to the surrounding area...will it be able to support future growth? Probably not, as it barely can support the traffic now! Let address this problem, and move this venue to an area of town that will be better able to handle future needs. Who knows, if Omaha can prove that it actually thinks things through, maybe we can get other events scheduled at the new stadium, which would help out with furure inevitable tax increases. Lets not make the same mistake here as was done with Peony Park, the Casinos, and the BMW manufacturing plant.

Pull your head out of your ass, Omaha.

There is so much growth that can be done done by Rosenblatt right now. I am from Omaha and go to the College World Series. Some of you who don't go to the CWS might not know that EVERY year Kevin Costner come to CWS every single year. So it is not just because he has done many baseball movies its because he loves baseball, CWS, and Rosenblatt. I have been lucky to meet and talk to him. You have no idea how much he loves the CWS. You get the impression that he has played her before and it really is the college baseball players " field of dreams." SAVE THE BLATT
