Really, the only downside that jumps out at me is that it is going to be filled with dallas fans.
Oh well, I'm sure our Skins will just love to pi$$ all over their nice new stadium the first time they play there.

So they're actually paying money to duplicate a hole in the roof caused by bad architectual plans (realized roof would not hold weight load if completed) and the fact that they ran out of funding?

That's as asinine as bring in Terrell Owens to play for Parcells.

They should just trade Bledsoe for Allen Iverson while they're on a roll.

The roof has a retractable cover so its a retractable roof dome like a lot of other NFL stadiums. It doesnt seem asinine at all. In fact Snyder would kill for a stadium like this.

Ok, retractable makes it better, but it's still based on a blunder and will cause crappy shadows unless it's positioned with the sunlight better than the original.

I still think the "hole in the roof" looks stupid.
