Looks like rain Sunday night

Should see plenty of MB3 and JJ., a reverse to TO or the rook.

Rain probably favors the Cowboys. They are better up front.

Ever since the days of Aikman struggling to throw a wet football, I've hated it when the Cowboys play in rain.

Unlikely it will rain. Any rain seen will be widely scattered and the odds of raining at any one spot round here are low. 30% is the consistent estimate all wk. Even if it happens to rain at Texas stadium it won't last long at all.

it only rains on like half the field doesnt it?

Close. 1/3 of the field.

Most of the field is exposed actually. At least my seat is under the roof -- barely.

I just hope it doesn't rain and F-up our tailgate! Man, it must have rained 4 times out of the 8 home games last year!

 

[Rocky]

Well, what I mean to say is that with a 30% chance of rain, we'll only see approx 1/3 of the field actually experiencing rain.

All this mute because there's a better chance of Eli throwing 5 TD's than any fraction of the field seeing rain during this game.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that if any part of the stadium sees rain, all of it will. On a purely statistical basis, you're right with a 30% forecast, but realistically, if it does rain on the stadium, odds are the storm will be large enough to spit on the whole stadium.

ROMO plays very good in poor conditions.

Dang right. He persevered under Parcells for several yrs.

This thread is good times, ain't it? Fortunately I have some patchwork to do on my roof, and maybe along with some college ball, Sunday will arrive soon enough.

 

[Mr Cowboy]

I was at the Commanders game last year, and there was a torrential rain storm.....on all of the field, the sidelines and parts of the seating.

Is the point Deaf and Blind as well?

Touche'

I was there too, but the rain stopped right at kickoff! Weird.

I believe all the field is exposed to rain.

I'm more worried that Romo had 5 picks last year against Giants. I fear average Cowboy Joe Fan is underestimating the Giants. They punched us in the mouth last year in Dallas.

I see a shootout 35-28 type game that could go either way.

from the weather channel for Irving,Tx.

• Tomorrow: Mixed clouds and sun with scattered thunderstorms. High around 90F. Winds SE at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 60%.
• Tomorrow night: Scattered showers and thunderstorms. Low 73F. Winds ENE at 5 to 10 mph. Chance of rain 60%.

Well last year in Dallas was the game where Bledsoe was benched. That was a bizarre game in more ways than one. I give Romo a semi-pass for that game.

The game in NY we handled them pretty well in a tough road game. Shockey and Barber were their typical selves, and MB3 and Grammy punched them in the mouth.

BTW... if anyone's interested, nfl.com has the highlight video of the game in NY on the game center page.
