The daily carnage

For fans of watching historic sports stadiums get reduced to rubble, we today present photos of the Orange Bowl three-quarters gone (possibly not up-to-the-minute - mlb.com doesn't say), and Tiger Stadium after the entire left-field grandstand crashed to the ground.

If that's not enough to cheer your day, you can also read Detroit Free Press writer Dan Austin's description of seeing a large swath of his childhood ballpark reduced to rubble: "For me, Monday night was the single most jarring moment of the demolition since the destruction began in earnest. I didn't cry, but I didn't breathe either. It felt like Cecil Fielder had taken a bat to my gut."
