I didn't watch the full video, but are they going to put up curtains for the soccer matches?

Right! It's funny, just reading the headline makes us wonder why a curtain costs 295 million.

The upgrade is for the mausoleum in which Jerry will be interred.

Jerry's psychological profile will be downloaded into the attached AI for his sons and the coach to access in order to find out what Jerry wants them to do, as required in his will.

Jerry refused the part of the upgrade that downloaded all statistical data and current trends in order to make informed decisions.

He replaced that program with a randomizer program that behaves much like a casino roulette wheel.

It’s a near two decade old stadium at this point, that’s a lot of wear and tear and needs for updates…the stadium is probably at it’s mid point in terms of lifespan and I would imagine by 2030 they start talking about the next stadium which would probably come before 2050…

They spelled stadjum wrong.

I wonder if they will keep the grass field for football. Atlanta just hosted a copa america game and they stacked the grass on top of the turf. It sucked. Players hated it and you could see why when they played.

Is he asking the taxes payers to foot the bill?

First of all it's not Jerry stadium how many times do we have to explain to you this stadium belongs to the city of Arlington and the city of Arlington is lucky that Jerry paid for half of it and it's still owned by the city of Arlington...

Jerry leases the stadium back from the city of Arlington therefore this would come from the taxpayers you guys don't have any clue on what ownership means ownership means that they pay for most of the upgrades that would be the city of Arlington they get tons of money because of tourism because of the Dallas Cowboys because of that stadium for people coming for road games and all the other crap that the city of Arlington uses for that stadium it's not just Jerry all that stuff that happens in the stadium like the motocross and all those other things for bull riding and fights the city of Arlington gets most of that money...

So let's stop there sure Jerry probably pays for a large part of maintenance he gets the money for all the OR at least a large part of concessions since he is part owner of the concession company that serves most of the NFL stadiums or a lot of them so Jerry making money but that's not his stadium the city of Arlington owns that stadium and therefore things like this soccer thing coming up the city of Arlington are the ones who are benefiting most from the world Soccer League coming here for those nine games therefore they would pay for a lot of the upgrades I don't see how you guys just lost sight of that.. Just in case you're now well informed...

Damn, that is sobering to think about. Doesn't seem that long ago that I was sitting watching the first game in the new stadium (stupid Giants). Time is a trip. Goes fast.

one of the most boring narrations I've ever seen and the redundancy of the things they talked about are ridiculous but anybody in here that has a problem with them raising investments and money for this this is mainly for the World Cup and this is not Jerry Jones stadium this is owned by the city of Arlington Jerry leases it back while Jerry has some responsibilities for upkeep and maintenance and what goes on in that stadium the city of Arlington are the sole owners of the stadium therefore they would have had to come up with the money so the fact that Jerry's helping them raise money through investors they come up with the money to completely transform this whole thing into a world class soccer environment is where this money is needed has nothing to do with curtains and I didn't watch the whole thing because the curtain narrative is the dumbest thing I've ever heard on here given that we have other stadiums that have bad turf that you have to play in wind rain and snow and that the actual sun is fully engulfing most outdoor stadiums and guys use eye black they use tinted Shields they lose balls in the sun on regular fields and yet that's what people keep coming back to curtains let's leave the curtain thing just done it's dumb I'm tired of hearing about it but yes this money is for FIFA this is for the World Cup like 9 games coming here and they're transforming the stadium for that and the money should not come out of Jerry's pocket 'cause he doesn't get all the profits this is the city of Arlington a whole bunch other people have their hands in this actual event therefore the money's gonna be spread out so the investment will be spread out..

They are not upgrading the stadium because it's starting to fall apart it needs maintenance this is solely to completely convert this stadium for the World Cup FIFA9 games however it's gonna long they gotta transform the whole entire field completely different from a football field and they're gonna rearrange seating and put more TV's and other things all around and make the environment welcome for world people there's like so many things that are gonna change that's what the money and the upgrades are for and the fact that they're gonna have to take it down and make it back into the Cowboys football field it takes a lot of work to transform a stadium into a soccer stadium because this is a world FIFA soccer event this isn't your basic soccer event coming here or they would have done it somewhere else.. So 295 million or two fully converted and then deconvert it and yeah the stadium itself will benefit for some of the upgrades and new paint and who knows what they're doing to it but it's still owned by the city of Arlington people not Jerry Jones Jerry Jones pays city of Arlington he's back and even though he's responsible for a lot of things inside the stadium he does not own it...

And anybody who wants to guess how much money the city of arlington's gonna earn from all these people coming in here for all these soccer games that's just one of the events that come here a lot of the other events inside that stadium the city of arlington's making buku money from all the taxes the food the lodging the tariffs you ever go on vacation to Colorado and there's about 120 it's worth the fees and extra taxes you have to pay for that hotel room that's what the city of Arlington is benefiting not Jerry Jones he will get some money but he ain't getting it the way you guys think he is...

Jerry vs the Sun, who thought that would be a storyline this year

this has nothing to do with these renovations they've always had a way to close those if they want to this is to transform it into a Soccer League and the sun and the glare is the dumbest narrative I've ever heard in here of a story to be talked about is this a big deal any bigger deal than the weather games that the rest of the NFL have to endure really bad wind sometimes bad winds snow and rain and storms and open stadiums and yes the sun this is the most ridiculous debate I've ever seen is about the curtains because it only happens three games a year and only effects 3 plays a year and you're trying to tell me that all those stadiums with bad turf or bad weather never affect games they'll talk about roofs on them do they make those teams have closed stadiums should we do that now should every game that is affected by the the weather we should have a week long debate about how they should be forced to put a Dome on their stadium then we can talk about the curtains..

Yeah I have that shot over my bed it's a framed picture maybe I'm the bad luck maybe I should take that picture down and burn it and then maybe our luck will change...

I ain’t reading all that drivel. Best of luck to ya.

Jerry vs the Sun, who thought that would be a storyline this year

because it's a really dumb storyline every year because it happens only like 3 plays a year and maybe two to three games where it's even a possibility somehow it becomes a story because it's Jerry but the rest of the league who have bad turf like washington's turf had an effect on the game last week nobody talks about that not in a way that they make it a news story and all the other stories about bad weather I mean I've seen some Buffalo games where they throw the football they had to run 55 times on both sides and it was the worst football I've ever seen but nobody talks about the wind and the snow affecting the game all but some sun glare, that should be a national news story...

 

[blueblood70]

That's why you remain delusional and clueless because it has all the information you need to know that the Dallas Cowboys do not own AT&T stadium the city of Arlington does maybe you ought to read it 'cause then you'd find out the truth and the facts so you're not writing inaccurate information try that for once read it because it's all true it's all an absolute fact but you don't wanna hear facts you'd rather start narratives and spread false lies but that's OK we get guys like you who just say things and you parrot other things like little sheep around the Internet and then make everyone believe it's true when it has no truth in it at all Jerry does not own AT&T the city of Arlington does Jerry leases it back when he needs to use it but most of those events are the city of Arlington benefiting from them not Jerry the city of Arlington uses that stadium and benefits from all the stadium's profits for the events that are not football..

Which is ridiculous if you think about it.
I wish county/cities/states would stop selling out their taxpayers so billionaires can not foot the bill for their products
