No problem 
and yeah Jerry's screen might be TOO big. Takes out the watching in person aspect in a way.

My complaints with Jerry's World have nothing to do with the actual stadium and more it's location in the 'burbs 20-30 minutes from bars and shite I like.
Arlington is dumb and staying at a hotel out there sucks because there's no good nightlife. Staying in Dallas or Fort Worth sucks because you have to get out to the stadium and then find a way to get back without getting a DUI after the game. Just my two cents, I don't mind playing there though and I'm sure I'll be at the A&M-Arkansas games once they're put back there.
Yeah it is kind of distracting, I've never had a huge problem with it though. If they had decided to really go nuts with the corporate cut-in segments on the screen then it would really piss me off but I don't think it's too bad

Jerry world is a cavernous, concrete monstrosity that feels like an airplane hangar on roids. Sterile & devoid of collegiate greatness. It may work for the nfl; but it swallows/neutralizes much of what makes college football a religious experience. Wish like heck we weren't playing there. But whatever. any team, any place.

Over dramatic much? I could understand wishing the screen wasn't so large. What NFL stadium would you rather watch college teams play in? I'm pretty sure the main team the stadium was built for was the Cowboys, not the Aggies or Hogs. I understand it is not as nice as playing at Kyle or Razorback Stadiums but it is still a new, $1 billion stadium.

Are those letters lit yet or has that kid blown it all on beer and Chipotle burritos? Anyone know?

aTm fans are accustomed to viewing their team play in a sleek, modern, glass and steel structure.

I'd rather stay in a graveyard than College Station. So for me Dallas > College Station, even though both suck

Sounds like he followed through on not staying in CS.

No comment on the concrete?
BTW, the steel is a lot more impressive and a lot more visible than concrete. Kyle Field, however, is pretty much 100% concrete.

I didn't make that original comment
There's a reason why we're completely overhauling the stadium, and it's not because it's pretty or luxurious in the current statePosted on 1/1/13 at 9:22 pm to Porker Face

We all know Kyle's a dump. That's why we're dumping $450M into what Populous -- the firm who designed your precious new facility -- has deemed "the most significant redevelopment project in modern American Sports."

Considering the size of B/CS there is no reason to think there would be any 5 star accommodations so why hate on my hometown for being small

My bad, replied to wrong poster.
They used Luxembourg high strength steel and W 14x730 wide flanges for whoever the original commenter was
