I think I will give NJ the point since that name would have most likely been the name that stuck after all it is was once officially William A. Shea Municipal Stadium too. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
