ECURB Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Weird the hate for the stadium... Fans are closer to the field... Newer... Nicer... Better seats... Better Screens.... Field.... Less wind (yeah those louvers you make fun of had a purpose) .... Not to mention parking is easy and I get out of there in no time... Dont forget how sh*tty the old stadium was... And how are any of the other stadiums actually better? Architecture? Give me a break its a f'ing football stadium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have certainly given the Jets a higher profile. Don't blame Woody for the current air conditioner they are playing in, blame unions. Look what you get when you have to hire union workers & pay them exorbitant dollars. 1.2 billion in NJ builds you a piece of crap that looks like a giant window air conditioner. 1.2 billion in Texas builds you the most beautiful stadium in the NFL. Northeast politics & corruption folks. It's why people don't retire in the Northeast, after working their whole lives there they take their money & run. Sounds like someone is in need of a Brodian throwdown on steel costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok then, have you ever seen the Cowboys stadium? You tell me how Jerry can build that for 1.2 billion, and then look at MetLife stadium for the same price. I'm waiting for your detailed answer.

Of course anyone earning a union wage will disagree. Fact is I have worked shows at the Javits center where you can only use UNION electricians. What a f*cking joke. We got some jamokes crackhead son that got in the union because of his father, (sound familiar?), and had to watch as this kid worked as slow as turtle at God knows what he was making an hour? Thats why companies like Boeing moved to North Charrleston. Unions are a thing of the past, companies in this country can't screw the worker like they did in the past (We now have a lawyers & OSHA) Unions were useful when there was no protection, but now they've become obsolete. Just look at the NEA the strongest Union in the country, and in New York they protect horrible teachers with tenure, some with criminal records.

Ohio State NY Jets fan Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Agree the stadium design could give the home team an advantage and the local fans and tax payers are paying for it, so let it be and if the home team is really bad the opposing fans will be able to help their team too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard the new stadium in Atlanta being discussed on Sirius and they've apparently structured the roof in such a way that the majority of the crowd noise is funneled toward the opponent's sideline, making it "ten times louder for the visiting team" according to the reporter being interviewed. Home field advantage is one thing, but how do you fell about creating a stadium that means both teams are essentially playing in different conditions? Especially for a team that was found to be funneling in artificial crowd noise a few years ago. Thoughts? Who cares. We have the oppositions fans coming into our stadium and drowning out our fans. Our opinion doesn't matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily, there aren't too many Jets fans at Jets games, so the Pats can hear the "Brady" chants better that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had the opportunity to build a better stadium than the Giants and we blew it. Yes , so now we'd have our own stadium that on game days looks like a visiting stadium.

Adoni Beast Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I wish our owner was competitive enough to build a stadium that gave us advantages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I've never been a season ticket holder. However, I do attend 4-6 games per year. One day, I definitely plan on being one but not at MetLife Stadium. It honestly saddens me and pains me to see us share a stadium in New Jersey with the Giants. First and foremost, the Jets need to be in NYC. It's that simple. Furthermore, our stadium is absolutely TERRIBLE. For the amount of money the Jets/Giants put into it, one would think it would actually look like a real stadium. On top of that, the product the management puts on the field sometimes makes it hard to watch on tv. We need to find a way to get a stadium in NYC. Is that possible or is it to late?

Baltimore and Cleveland opened beautiful new retro-stadiums and the White Sox spent more money and built an utter crap stadium that they had to renovate years later to look better. MetLife Stadium was such a mistake design wise (not stadium sharing wise). Sharing makes sense from a local fiscal aspect. The design was just ridiculous.

SAR sighting in 3..2..1 Manhattan is out of the question because they're already developing where the WSS would be (karmic note that the guy to block that deal is going to jail). The only hope for any NYC stadium is near Citifield, but that opportunity will dry up in a couple of years as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
