Matt:Why would the takeover have a bearing on changing the name of the stadium. A-B has no monetary interest in the Cardinals or the stadium, unless the "city fathers" are lying again. The stadium is owned by the Cards and the taxpayers, and was named after Gussie as a tribute. The name Bush is not copywrited by A-B, but is an old family name shared by thousands, including our current and past President of the United States. They could hire anyone named Bush and name the stadium after them. Sounds like typical media, trying to stir things up. The ultimate decision to sell will be up to the shareholders to decide and not the pot bellied beer drinkers sitting around the bars. Has anybody talked to Warren Buffet to get his feelings about the selling of the brewery?
THE TAKOVER OF AB BY A FOREIGN CO WILL HAVE ANEGATIVE IMFACT OF A LARGE PART OF THE US. INBEV HAS A REPUTATION AS A COST CUTTER.THIS COULD BE A PROBLEM FOR AB SUPPLIERS, EMPLOYEES AND A POTENTISL LOSS OF BENIFITS FOR RETIRED AB PEOPLE.
