The Los Angeles Angels of Newport Beach?

[Spirit]

Is Newport Beach joining Long Beach in attempting to lure the Angels with a new beach side ballpark?  

 

Sources close to the situation say, no.

 

 

[Dick Enberg]

looks like Arte can get his Yacht docked real close! Can't rule it out! 

[Spirit]

Nothing has been confirmed either way.

Ingress egress wouldn't be much worse than Long Beach.

[jdodd]

Cool!  I can walk to the game this summer.

 

[Docwaukee]

They should just make it like a giant floating barge that they can sail around the coast 

 

[halomatt]

Ditto this idea.

It would be impossible, this will never happen.

 Traffic would be and absolute nightmare. It would be an hour to just get to the freeway after the game. The current location provides very good access to multiple freeways and minimal traffic.  Well, comparably speaking anyway.

LOL  Buying that real estate alone would cost your about a billion dollars and it would piss off a lot of wealthy people.

I say let's put it on Balboa Island.

What more could you want than direct ferry access from Balboa Fun Zone and direct bridge access from Jamboree & PCH?

If the stadium could be closer to Fashion Island or the South Coast Plaza, my wife would be more apt to attend games.

Are local Catalina Island politicians actually considering trying lure the Angels 20 miles west with a new stadium?

Our sources say, "no."

After all these years on the interwebs, some people just don't have the slightest radar for humor/sarcasm.

(the photoshop in Catalina is spectacular, btw)

I don't understand how they get through life.

Are you sure? Sounds very plausible.

Talk about marine layer. Long Beach would come with several fog-outs per year.

I personally manage the liability insurance for the city of Newport Beach. I can tell you that no requests have been submitted to add a stadium or authority. Take that for what you will

That's why I put the wink in my post.Long Beach is also never going to happen for the same reason. You have to be able to get to the game!

I'll take it as a complete lie and I expect construction to begin on Bay Island within the next few weeks.

The Los Angeles Angels of Newport Beach and the West Coast!!!!!

[SlappyUtilityMIF]

They could build an island off the Coast with the sand dredgers similar to Dubai and it can be considered an international team....

The International Angels of the World..... Marketing Winner~

[T.G.]

C'mon... everyone knows the team is moving to Midvale, NJ.
