  Avenue Blues details how the Yankees are not allowing face-painters into the Stadium these days. Hearing this, it makes me wonder if Yankee Stadium is now using digital surveillance photos to analyze facial characteristics, etc., in order to try and spot/stop bad guys. It's either that, or, the team is about to ink a sponsorship deal with

  know, the Yankees have not always played in Yankee Stadium. In their history, the team has played home games at Hilltop Park, the Polo Grounds and even Shea Stadium. Therefore, it's not like the team has a 105-year tradition of playing exclusively at Yankee Stadium. Would it be the end of the world if the team decided to
