In today’s Saturday Chat, Kendall Wallace calls for reason and objectivity to play a big role in the negotiations between the city and the Lowell Spinners over the extension of the ballteam’s lease of LeLacheur Field.  I agree with him although I’m still worried.  The Spinners came here in the first place because their prior home, Elmira, New York, gave up on the team.  I don’t want history to repeat itself.

In his column, Wallace cites a post I wrote on this topic at the end of June which is here in case you’re interested in rereading it.  I wrote more last evening, focusing on the legislation that created the Arena Commission which controls both the ballpark and the arena.
