Remember When MEN Played Football?

[Gunny]

The Metrodome ceiling collapsed. OMG! What SHALL we do?

Try acting like you live in Green Bay, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Buffalo, et al and take your asses down the road and play in the Golden Gophers OUTDOOR stadium?

But ... but ... it's cold and snowy .....

Wah. Take your pussy little asses to Detroit and play in their comfy stadium then.

 

[hortysir]

And if you're losing trip your opponent

 

[PixieStix]

I remember when they played in hard cllimates. They played for less money and loved the game...for the game

 

[Gunny]

And if you're losing trip your opponent

I must've missed something .....

 

[masquerade]

Excuse Mr. Gunny sir .... you left out Foxboro.

 

[Gunny]

And if you're losing trip your opponent

And don't forget getting 5th down!

It was going to take nearly a week to get TCF stadium prepped.

Mid-life crisis he-man rant: FAIL!

Now, if you want to gripe about dressing NFL players up in pink for a month, you might get me aboard.

Dome football sucks.

The Metrodome roof would not have collapsed if there wasn't a roof.

Uhm .. yeah ... you have.

Who's prepping the stadium? The Federal government?

I don't see why it would take so long to plow the field.

Then you have to get the concession stands up and running, complete with the attendant horde of health department inspectors and other bureaucrats, who are busy hassling elementary school bake sales this time of year, to stick in their noses.

I think that's just what I said ...

I loved football when men who loved to play the game instead of talented money grubbers played it.

If you can't suit up and go regardless the weather, you may as well be wearing pink.

So do I.

But sometimes actual reality intervenes to make such knee-jerk rants look foolish.

And we all know how much you hate looking foolish....Don't we?

That the panty waists that play now would have gotten killed in the 60s and before?

Oh darn.

Got more of a clue than you think.

Your point?

Football is a business and it's all about packing the seats as full as possible. It's about fan comfort more than player comfort.
