I'm Just Asking

I have a few questions about the New Yankee Stadium that I would like to have answered. Nothing Earth shattering or profound, just a few queries that I, as a fan would like to have clarified.

1. Will I have that same sense of numbness and disbelief the first time I enter the new Stadium that I did when I first walked through the tunnel to the field level at 161^st and River?

2. Will my son look at a picture of the new park and recognize it as fast and with as much excitement as before?

3. As everyone wants to know, will The Babe, Gehrig, DiMaggio, Mantle, Munson, and the other ghosts come to play in their new home?

4. Will we, as fans, stand outside waiting to get in and look across the street and long for the Old Girl?

5. Will the new Stadium itself question whether or not it can ever match up?

6. Will it be in my generation, or my son's or his son's, that one can touch the walls walking through the concourse and feel the history?

7. Will I still pay eight bucks for a beer?

8. Will I ever get over it and accept that we have moved on?

9. If, say, Melky Cabrerra, hits the first homer in the Stadium (and I love Melky) will it mean as much as the Babe going yard the first time in '23?

10. Will she be home to another 26 titles?
