Football Am I the only one who thinks Cowboys Stadium is ugly? - Page 4

Granted I've never been there... but from the outside its nothing but glass, steel and a roof. Inside it looks like the decks other than field level are 8 miles away from the field. They have a big video board that can get in the way of punts and kickoffs which equals just plain stupid imo. On tv at least it has no personality at all. JerryWorld to me just resembles his team... flashy with no substance.

Anyone been there? Am I wrong?

Kinda looks like a hangar for the Hindenburg.

Thank you good sir. I can't sleep for crap, that Baylor TCU game got me pumped up for tomorrow. Mizzou is on at 11, drinking coffee now, may try to make it all the way through.

Well... I found my first reason to hate you then.

It happens.

Re-building = re-suck. KU football is a joke and I know it. Luckily I don't care much. Would it be nice to win? Sure. But I love baseball and basketball. KU being good at football would just be icing.

Icing for us too. I have never in my life experienced anything like the 2007 game, the build up, the game itself, the payoff, the crushing defeat to OU in San Antonio. Which I made the trek too. Travelling long long distances in a car to see that type of game...is not a good experience.

Edit for relevance: The Alamodome is a dome of suck in which to watch a football game.

MU is always good at football. I may not be an MU fan but I can recognize a good program. MU has deserved better bowls than they've gotten a couple of times. KU..... we love basketball and usually get out hearts broken there too.

Ever been to the Phog? I haven't, would love to go someday. If they ever get a new place I will kick myself for the rest of my life for having been so close all these years and never going. I'd rather go there for any other game than Mizzou. I would probably enjoy it more if it we KU versus anyone else. Probably the only case in sports I wouldn't prefer to see my own team in another stadium.

I have been to the Phog. It's a special place. My bother lives 4 blocks away and can hear the games from his front yard.

Sounds awesome, and the tickets aren't even near impossible to get. Just a bit pricey though, I will have to get on that one. It's an easy one to cross off my list.

The thing I love about KU (and others hate) is that even if we lose we still believe in our team and believe we're #1. Most rival fans take that as arrogance but it isn't... it's just faith in team and being proud to chant rock chalk.

sounds like you guys are haters. cowboys stadium is badass. as american as it can get. big a goudy.

And I just thought it was pure Kansas arrogance all these years. Thanks for clearing that up.
