Looks like FedEx is finally getting a scoreboard upgrade. According to the DC Sports Bog a 30x100 HD video board will be installed in each endzone and other boards around the lower bowl will be improved.

God...finally!

Re: Redskins to install new HD video boards in each endzone
 

I think CRedskinsRule mentioned this as a possibility awhile back. We've been making some good changes lately.

Re: Redskins to install new HD video boards in each endzone
 

Good I guess. As the Bog says, lets wait and see what it looks like.

Either way, I am still not fully ready to pay Snyder more money for tickets. I think I will pass the experience next season.

nice nice nice

Re: Redskins to install new HD video boards in each endzone
 

Video at the stadium has needed an upgrde for at least 5 years now. This is a good thing!

From Twitter:
FakeBruceAllen I have seen the new video screens at FedEx, they are being tested by showing Kindergarten Ninja over and over #NFL #Redskins
:rofl:

Re: Redskins to install new HD video boards in each endzone
 

The old ones DID look horrible and I've never even been to the stadium. You can tell they were crap just watching on TV and in photos.

Re: Redskins to install new HD video boards in each endzone
 

the old ones were so bad. With the guy on Defense smashing the words, so bad. Literally looked like a High School Score board.

Steven Czaban will be happy... :D

Love the title for the story on Redskins.com

I don't go to the games to watch TV.

1st this will be a great improvement, the cheerleaders always looked fuzzy on the old one LOL

2nd, am i being too cynical in thinking DS was just waiting till all the NFCE teams upgraded theirs so he could have the biggest. I suppose Dallas' is still larger, but these will be more "tasteful".

I hope they don't try the 3D effect like Dallas did. seemed a little ridiculous to me.

Now that's funny.

Re: Redskins to install new HD video boards in each endzone
 

Been to Dallas for the skins game, that place is ridiculous. Hate the cowboys, hate Jerra, but man he did that thing right. Screen is crazy, it is on couple second delay from the live action, after 1 play during the game there was a delayed cheer from the cowboys fans, everyone was watching the screen and not the live action.

Re: Redskins to install new HD video boards in each endzone
 

It's about time Snyder put in some upgrades.

Re: Redskins to install new HD video boards in each endzone
 

I'm almost more excited about the fact that they're upgrading the game clocks/scoreboards around the lower bowl. I've been to games in the past where the sun is hitting them at the wrong angle so you couldn't read them.

Re: Redskins to install new HD video boards in each endzone
 

Great news! Snyder is really on a PR roll lately.

Now, that is funny stuff!

Re: Redskins to install new HD video boards in each endzone
 

thank god. When I'm at the games and a play is under review you can never tell what the heck happened -- hence why when you watch the games you don't understand why the crowd is acting shocked when review calls come in.

Re: Redskins to install new HD video boards in each endzone
 

Anything to help improve the fan experience. It's going to be a total up-grade from what we have......About time.

I'd trade it for winning though!!

Re: Redskins to install new HD video boards in each endzone
 

Snyder making all the right moves this off season. between the football decisions, and now upgrading Fed Ex, there should be a lot of happy campers around here

Re: Redskins to install new HD video boards in each endzone
 

I'd perfer he take the money and buy a bunch more porta poty's.

Yeah I heard that up top it's just too easy to look at the boards and that they're kind of distracting

yeah definitley, and an upgrade in the bethrooms is long over due, but i do have to say i'm really liking some of the moves so far and mayb e just maybe he is finally getting it, time will tell

Re: Redskins to install new HD video boards in each endzone
 

It's a welcome addition whether you're home or at the game.

Actually the bathrooms are set up to deal with volume and they seem to work just fine. The only time I remember waiting in a long line is before or after the game and then if you don't hit one by the exit or entrance the lines are not too bad.

I was actually joking and like having them to watch the replay. Now what they have in Dallas would be a distraction when trying to watch the game.

Detroit has a really nice bathroom setup.. got through the lower bowl bathrooms far quicker than I ever did at club level @ FedEx

Now the Red Wings.. trough city baby

This is funnier and it is from ESPN.COM

[quote=ESPN.COM]The Skins' new big screens will be three times the size of the old ones, which showed replays [URL="http://www.hasbro.com/litebrite/"][COLOR=#225db7]that resembled my old Lite-Brite[/COLOR][/URL]. The Redskins say the new end zone screens will feature better views of out-of-town scores and fantasy stats, [b]which will make it easier to distract fans from the on-field product.[/b] (OK, the Redskins didn't say that last part).[/quote]

Now THATS funny!

I can't wait for better view's of teams "running up the score" on the cowgirls, and Roy Williams turning in another seasons worth of disappointing fantasy stats.

Kind of like the delayed reactions at your stadium due to people watching the screens? Or the people in the upper deck saying that they're too distracting?

All that you do here anymore is troll, hopefully they catch on to it.

Re: Redskins to install new HD video boards in each endzone
 

Well, it's about time, I'm just sad that he waited so long. Replays at Fedex did not do the sport justice.
