Earth warning lol

It's for real. Scientists know it for a fact. Those who don't are dreaming.

And finally we will win at Green Bay come January.... and yessss I'll be at tr

I like Soldier Field having seen a game there, but I'd expect the Bears next stadium in Arlington Heights, Illinois to have a roof because it's Chicago. So, soon we can probably add Chicago to that list. That seems to be the next team indicating they'd like to change stadiums.

Take your L in November and enjoy it. You are not getting anywhere near here in Jan. Hey, just stating facts here, not trying to trigger anyone.

The Bears and their fans are soft. That's why they don't care about moving out of Chicago and 45 mins away in Arlington. Yes, they will also build a dome. Soft, I tell you. It's sad actually, to see a franchise with so much great history turning into the Lions and Vikings.

Real football is played in the elements. Why do TV ratings spike through the roof when there is a snow globe game at Lambeau? There are reasons people love the NFL. Reasons why it's the most popular league in this country. Teams playing football indoors is not one of them.

The league would go bankrupt and fold if all teams played indoors. The league needs the real football that is played in Green Bay, Kansas City, Buffalo, and Pittsburgh.

The Super Bowl should always be played outdoors as well. I'm fine having it in warmer climates in the winter, but keep it on real grass and outdoors. No, wheeling the grass in and out like in Vegas is not the answer. That is a dome in Vegas.

I'm also fine with having the Super Bowl in a colder weather outdoor stadium. It worked in New York. Rotate the game more. I am actually ok with having a indoor Super Bowl every once in a while, but not 70% of the time.

I agree that football should be played in the elements. That said, I think the players seem to want a controlled environment.

The players prefer playing indoors? Not true, but ok. There may be some players that may prefer playing all indoor games, but it is far from the majority of the league.

I actually don't really care what some players want. Some would also prefer zero padded practices. That would kill the game as well. It's bad enough the number is so low now.

I don't care what they want either when it comes to practices and such. That said, Pat McAfee seems to think there are a lot that would like a controlled environment. Yes, I enjoy the Pat McAfee Show.

Have no issue with Pat, but he makes money by keeping a conversation going. Stirring the pot and getting eyes and ears on his show. His words are far the gospel. He is a entertainer.

I think if you polled all NFL players the majority would say they enjoy playing outdoors in elements.

No, I get that. Though, I'd imagine that players would have a little imput on the stadium. That said, it's also the owners who want a SB. I would love it if the Cowboys hadn't put a roof on the stadium, as an example, but that's the trend for stadiums.

Well, at least the Cowboys can open a portion of the roof, though they rarely do. I've been to Jerry World 3 times and it's never been open. I get why it was closed for the 2011 Super Bowl. The weather sucked that week, but no one cared, a blast was had by all that whole week.

Oh, and I forgot to say Pat was a kicker/punter, of course he and his brand enjoy a controlled environment. Every kicker would prefer all games be indoors.

I'm also happy to report that Buffalo will be building a new stadium and it will be open-air. Score!

His post didn't need to be fixed. It's dead on accurate.
