1. Though I will miss the Braves, I think I will miss “Connecticut” more.

2. The “graduate student,” just FYI, is Paul DiPasquale, who created the recently rehabilitated Headman statue on the Canal Walk and the Arthur Ashe Monument.

   Its a site specific piece and wherever the figure goes will need to be constructed to display it. If the Diamond is ultimately razed for a newer place, that would need to be taken into account.

   My guess is the Braves won’t want to haul it to Georgia.

3. Harry,

   The RMA owns the DiPasquale piece at The Diamond. So, the Braves will probably be leaving Connecticut and Virginia at the same time.

4. Richmond.com needs a better RSS feed for their site where I could pick up your articles and not all the crappy ones. Your article is about 10X better than the RTD one referrenced above.

   It’s funny that Signet Bank bought “Connecticut” for the R-Braves. By October neither Signet nor the R-Braves will exist anymore.
