Assuming management knows this, are they choosing to focus on the simple 1912 + 100 = 2012 arithmetic or will they say they are marking 100 completed seasons by whooping it up throughout 2012?

Arithmetic.
They had the 75th anniversary patch in '87, so going by that, all celebrations would wait till '12. But you'd think they would at least mention this coming April 2011 that it's the 100th Opening Day at Fenway. But maybe they're just not thinking of it like that at all.
THIS ISNT FENWAY PARK! You’re exactly right — that is not Fenway Park.
👉 This photo is of Braves Field, the old home of the Boston Braves.
🧠What gives it away
1. The wide-open outfield
Braves Field was famous for its huge, deep outfield
Fenway is much tighter and asymmetrical (with the Green Monster)
2. No Green Monster
Fenway’s iconic left field wall is missing
Instead you see:
low walls
long bleacher stretches
3. The scoreboard + ads
That big right-field scoreboard layout matches Braves Field
Old ads like:
“Gold Seal Whiskey”
“Sullivan Brothers”
👉 consistent with early 1900s Braves Field imagery
4. Label at the top
You can actually see:
“Boston Ball Grounds (Panorama #3)”
👉 “Boston Ball Grounds” was another name used for Braves Field
