Just a couple things:

1) Even as a Cowboys fan, you can't deny that Jones says a lot of stupid **** and it's great fodder for writers. You can't make up some of his quotes about the importance of the building.

2) It's improper to say that the City of Arlington put up more than their fair share of the price tag. Economically, all indications are that this is one of the better deals a city has gotten for helping build a stadium.

3) I for one would love seeing our players run through a tunnel filled with screaming fans (given the fans aren't actually touching the players). Gives it a real Roman-Coliseum like coolness to it.


doesn't both teams go through the same tunnel?
If not, does the opposing team go through the same type tunnel?
Thought I heard a player of one of the teams we already played say they did not like that, they felt a little intimidated. If that is true, GREAT!

The players enter the field through a bar: Actually it's called the Miller Lite Club. After leaving the locker room, the players make their way to the field while surrounded by hundreds of screaming fans. There's nothing close to this around the league. Jones wants this to be an interactive experience -- and he's succeeded. But is it a good idea to give a bunch of fans beer bottles after the Cowboys have played a horrible first half? We'll see. Asked about entering the stadium through a bar, Australian punter Mat McBriar joked that he was "tempted" to stop for a drink.
This isn't philly. Cowboys fans have more class than throwing bottles at their own players.


I'm so pumped! CoOome oOoon Sunday night!!

There are matching bars on both sides of the stadium, so the visiting team runs through a bar also. The bars are exactly alike.

I could be wrong, but I think the people in the Miller Light Club are pretty high ticket patrons. not to say rich guys can't be knuckleheads as well, but we're not talking about some ex-con off the street hanging out in there.

I c what ur sayin but too much alcohol combined with a terrible first half can do wonders.....:(

Can you tell me something? Is this heaven?

No, it's Dallas.

I could have sworn it was heaven.

It's Arlington, actually. But you can see it from Dallas.

I know, but we aren't the Arlington Cowboys so I kept it real.

I think it's doubtful Mosely wrote the headline.

The writer rarely has that duty.

Since it was a blog post, I'd say it's more likely that Mosley did write the headline than if it was an article on the normal site.

So that's the bar where we should send the thugs and criminals to hang out?

The City of Dallas has to be eating their hearts out right about now for their utter stupidity.

And yes, every punter is going to try to nail that thing before the game. Bradie James confronted former Tennessee Titans punter A.J. Trapasso before the game and asked him why he was trying to bang kicks off the scoreboard. "Because it's up there," responded Trapasso.
