Reliant Stadium To Have Widest Video Displays In Pro Sports - Dallas Cowboys Forum

houstonwhodat · 12-19-2012

This news just in:

The Houston Texans are now saying the are going to have the biggest video displays in all of pro sports.

Even surpassing Jerry World's screens.

Ya'll check the dimensions and see if that is true. I have never been to Dallas' new stadium so I couldn't tell you.

"Today, the Harris County Sports & Convention Corporation voted to approve replacing the Reliant Stadium video display boards, making them the largest in Texas and the widest display in professional sports. Each video display will measure 52.49' (H) x 277.17' (W) with 4.4 trillion colors and a 960 Hz refresh rate for jitter-free HD images."

“Our game experience is consistently rated as one of the finest in the world and these spectacular video boards will help us elevate to an even higher level of performance for our fans," said Houston Texans President Jamey Rootes. "Starting next season, the energy, excitement and entertainment we deliver for each home game at Reliant Stadium will be matched with exclusive video content, real-time information and event enhancements to provide an even better experience for our large and loyal fan base.”

Nope, Jerry is the original. They can never take that away.

Take this as you will. When you go out shopping and you want the best TV and picture, you go and buy what Jerry Jones has. When you go out shopping and you log on a message board before going and ask for a cheap alternative and only for said amount. You go out and beg for a CS person at Best Buy to help you and you go home with what will be hanging in Reliant Stadium.

That is about as basic as you can put it.

Imagine all of the electric advertising the Reliant board will be carrying along w/ some middle part being the actual game.

Ummm no thanks. You can polish a turd a lot, but in the end...its still a piece of poo.

14 teams have never won a Super Bowl. 7 in each Conference.

4 teams have never been to a Super Bowl. They are Cleveland, Jacksonville, Detroit, and Houston. Every other team has at least played in one.

Cleveland, Jacksonville, and Detroit are out of the playoff picture and won't get a chance to break that streak this year.

Houston will not break it either. Yes, I am predicting they will not go to the Super Bowl despite having the best record in the NFL this year.

I'm willing to buy that prediction. While I think they're a solid team, I think in the playoffs they'll look more the team that got blasted by Green Bay and NE than the team that rolled through the AFC South.

Jerry is a lot of things in this business - some good some bad. But Jerry has always been ahead of the class as an owner/businessman in the NFL. It does not surprise me that Jerry started the trend of party decks and oversized video displays that some initially mocked but soon most teams will follow.

I remember when JJ was down in Houston for the inaugural game against the Texans which Dallas lost.

You could see JJ checking out the stadium and could tell he was jealous because the Boys were still playing at the old Texas Stadium in Irving.

So what did he do, created the monster that is now in Dallas.

Guess they will have to outdo each other now.
