Morrissey Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Seeing these stadiums being built, the Cowboys stadium, plus the proposals out in LA and compare it to that hunk of junk we play in really annoys me. Biggest market in the world and we play in a second rate stadium. BTW: In 2025 the Jets (Giants too if they wanted) can opt out, and ever 5 years after.

patman Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 The only things that matter in stadiums are sight lines and restrooms. The thing I don't like about met life is that too many seats are located behind the goal lines. A typical bowl stadium defect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

32EBoozer Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Glass part off the roof is on an angle. Yeah, I realize that.... looks like a 5:12. Roofs can still collapse with a moderate pitch. And by the way.... I was just goofing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fibonacci Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Glass part off the roof is on an angle. Plus they can heat the roof to avoid snow accumulation. Both stadiums look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HOZ THE JET Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 For the price they made MetLife Stadium it could of been a lot better, no retractable roof? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RutgersJetFan Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I like how Vikings fans bitched when they first moved them into a dome, and now they have a chance to go back and the whole city is just like "oh **** that sh*t." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've gone to a lot of events in the old Metrodome - it was great! Couldn't imagine sitting outside in Minnesota in December. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams aren't afraid to go to Detroit or Minny in the winter. They sure don't like Lambeau though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

section314 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 All they cared about was getting as many luxury boxes in as possible Sheldon Silver is going to jail 10 years too late.

Yeah.... that really S-U-C-K-S! That crook and his pal Dolan hijacked this franchise for another 10 years. If I were Woody, I'd start filing the paperwork so that we'll be able to move in Jan 2025... if the Lord tarry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prime21 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 With the exception of a roof at MetLife, these places only have some more modern looking design. Ours is just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sully28 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Main issue with our stadium is no roof IMO, as much as I enjoy seeing teams play in weather conditions, I don't particularly enjoy going to them. OP is right, it's frustrating watching teams like the Vikings get such a better stadium than two New York teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
