The Maryland Stadium Authority seems to be pointed only to professional sports building projects. The Baltimore Sun's Hayes Gardner report on how $70 million may be spent on a minor league stadium in Hagerstown blew my mind ('The Maryland Stadium Authority will soon build a $70 million Hagerstown ballpark. First, it must buy a car wash,' Aug. 14)! A facility that will drew maybe 3,000 minor league fans paying minor league admissions per game doesn't make much sense, at least to me. Meanwhile, the University of Maryland has a truly decrepit, outdated embarrassment of a stadium, 72-year-old Capitol One Field at Maryland Stadium, that is in desperate need of replacement.
