Sports stadium rant. It's kind of funny though. It's Frank DeFord with a sense of humor and a degree in Journalism! A factual news piece, punctuated by sound effects, interviews, and good natured banter. Informational and ultimately listenable. Technically about the concept of building sports stadiums in cities around the country. Do they really make sense? Good use of a multitude of movie clips and and music. Long music tail to fade at end of piece.
