Point State Park is STILL CLOSED -- and work has not occured there in months

Do you know how to confuse a bunch of Philly baseball fans?

Put a big frickin fence around Point State Park -- for no reason.

This week the Philly fans are in Pittsburgh -- wishing to take in the sights. I saw dozens of the fans pressing their faces against the cyclone fences at the edge of Point State Park.

Meanwhile, nothing has happened there in months.

Joggers are blocked from the park. Cyclists are out of luck. Citizens are given the bird -- and this bird has nothing to do with geese -- every day that the park remains closed.

Meanwhile, new parks are opening.
