It's mind-numbingly stupid to not have a Dome or retractable roofNo dome, BIG FAIL. Typical Buffalo.
I'm absolutely shocked that there was no pushback from the community when it was announced that it would be open air. Buffalo just accepts mediocracy.It's mind-numbingly stupid to not have a Dome or retractable roof
The Bills just don't seem to have that cold-weather advantage anymoreI'm fine with an open air stadium. Real men play football in all conditions. Teams who are coddled with domed stadiums will have to come to Buffalo during the playoffs and freeze their balls off while the Bills dominate them.
Yeah, I would have went retractable roof. I tell you, one of my favorite stadiums in this league is Indianapolis.' I know that would have cost a pretty penny but while the Bills still would never host a Superbowl, that kind of venue would give Buffalo NCAA bowl game and Basketball tournaments, concerts, political conventions, and the like.It's mind-numbingly stupid to not have a Dome or retractable roof
I always thought the whole idea form the start was a multi-use venueYeah, I would have went retractable roof. I tell you, one of my favorite stadiums in this league is Indianapolis.'

The NFL should have mandated that all newly built stadiums must have a roof. Playing a playoff game or any game with snow and ice all over the field in 20 degrees with high winds is like holding an auto race on ice. It sucks to watch and it's just plain stupid. Why diminish a players amazing athleticism especially after a team has invested an entire season trying to set up for a playoff run only to be slowed and hampered by weather.I'm fine with an open air stadium.

Not to mention lost revenue for cities that can't host super bowls and how STUPID to build a one-use-only stadium?The NFL should have mandated that all newly built stadiums must have a roof.

No professional athlete should ever have to contend with a poor playing surface.To each their own, I guess. I like seeing the visitors wilt under the poor conditions. It wasn't long ago that the Ravens came to Buffalo for a playoff game. They only put up three points and Lamar bitched about the weather afterwards. And of course, there was that shellacking of the Raiders back in the day. Howie Long still cries about that game. LOL.
