Does it really matter?

Whatever he does in life obviously makes him a very rich, successful person. If blowing people full of smoke while he works behind the scenes to fix problems does it for him, who cares.

No, it doesn't really matter, at least not here where it doesn't affect the actual team on the field. I started all this by saying "Jerry is so funny", after all.

True.

But some people (not you) just obsess over the guy. It's odd.

Just saw footage on NFL Live and those punters were drilling that board in warm ups.

Well, if this is an up-to-date video, I'm glad they're raising the megatron, although the home field advantage aspect would've been nice. But trust me folks, the haters will find something else to moan about. They just can't bring themselves to admit that the Cowboys have the biggest and the baddest new digs around.

It also doesn't matter when Tim MacMahon calls RW11 "coachable," but that doesn't stop a certain segment of the fan base from throwing a tantrum. The only person who should care is .. Roy.

On purpose.

Which really doesn't mean much. If the board can be hit, it needs to be moved.

It was hit in the game and it gave the punter a redo.

Bad kick or not, it doesn't matter. Rewarding the kicking team for catching to much height on what would be a short kick is ridiculous.

Part in bold: Also on purpose. I agree that if it's a problem, it should be raised and it appears they're doing that. I'm just not sure that will be enough for some folks. They'll still find something to complain about.

That's good. They can raise it when we punt and lower it to the league minimum when our opponents are on the field.

:laugh1:

All kidding aside, something on that scale isn't going to move instantaneously. It'd probably take more than a couple of minutes just to move it 10 feet. And I'm sure someone would notice it moving. Like the players on the field!

I hope he doesn't move it until the league makes him. Its the principle of the thing now, they said it was ok, then they said it wasn't. <jerry waffle> <jerry waffle> <jerry waffle>

Come to think of it, megatron being to "low" might give us an advantage, albeit a short lived one; I bet good money if we raise it just alittle, some dumb kicker is gonna try and hit it, thereby helping us in field position when he misses and his punt goes 20 yds. :)

We need a good name for this 8th wonder of the world; I refuse to call something so beautiful "the video board". Sounds too ordinary. Jumbotron is an understatement. Jerrytron is stupid.
I'm open for suggestions......

They could move the board to a 100 feet and a punter could still hit it if he wanted to.

Some writer said The Blue Monster (like Boston's green monster). Is it blue?
