St. Louis loves its Groves (Tower Grove Park, Tower Grove East, Webster Groves, Busch's Grove (RIP), The Grove, etc...) and its Heights (McKinley Heights, Botanical Heights, Compton Heights, Clifton Heights, Maryland Heights, Richmond Heights, etc...). So maybe Locust Grove Heights? 

^It also sounds more Milwaukee. Particular for a team named "Brewers." So, yeah, if you press really hard I'm a lot better with Enterprise than Savvis. It's both a cooler name and a company more obviously associated with St. Louis. But in the end, what I really want is something that recognizes local history; that respects local traditions. And there is a time for change. (Taney County, anyone?) And hey, the name sale is a source of reliable private financing for an expensive and tricky thing to justify. So I shouldn't really complain. But I do get a little dizzy sometimes with all then changes. Also, Crimminy! Miller frigging Park, folks. 'Nuff said. Put "American Family Field" down in some place with no dignity, like Atlanta. Or better yet Orlando.

I only realized just recently that Safeco Field in Seattle is no longer Safeco Field - last year it became T-Mobile Park. Ugh. Neither is a great name, but T-Mobile Park sounds comical. And yes, they do often illuminate the stadium with pink accent lights...

^Did Seattle steal the Arch?

Haha that’s Century Link Field behind. They’re convinced the space needle is superior (it’s not, but it’s still cool).

people will probably have an extremely hard time getting used to that facility being called "Centene Field".

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.
