Glenn Straub: Too little too late

Hey Glenn Straub. I WANT to watch baseball downtown,. I WANT to TAKE the Metromover to games,

But I wish you would just shut up.

Straub penned a letter to the public (which you can find on the jump) defending his idea for a downtown stadium. But we've moved too far with the Little Havana stadium and I for one am sick of watching the Marlins give away every decent player who ever swung a bat for them.

With the city vote yesterday voting to expand the Southeast Overtown Park West District, we have removed another stumbling block.

So Glenn, I applaud your inventiveness. But now sit down!
