Dome Teams....

[Zod]

Should teams that play in a dome be considered actual NFL teams or more like a strange bastard child of the NFL and Arena League?

Thoughts?

yes. its football......weather is included in the game (or should be) imo....minnesota is retarded.....they could have a brutal home field advantage.....like chicago or greenbay....but instead they are hindering themselves cause they gotta play in GB and CHI in the winter....harsh winter....and they arent used to it (they are used 72 degrees)

dumb. just dumb.

I would just about assure you they have an outdoor practice field so I don't see them practicing indoors unless they play at home that week. I'm just assuming, they might not.

Zod, I actually agree with you 100%. They should do away with domes in pros and in college. Watching the goal posts almost blow over annually at a couple of games in Buffalo is awesome. Same at Lambeau. Should be part of the game...

What do you call people who are scared to play outside in the elements?

Superbowls should definately not be held in a dome.

I will openly admit, the only way we have a shot at the SB is to go thru a dome. This team is not built for cold (i.e. going to NY or Philly in January). That being said; there is nothing like outdoor football.

There's nothing like those post season games in the snow in Pittsburgh or Foxboro. That last SB in Miami was awesome with the downpour when Indy/Chicago played.

Wouldn't you think the Arena League is the bastard child since the Superdome was built many years before the Arena League was even established?

[Zod]

Then the superdome is the whorish pansy girly field made for sissies?

OK, i can see that.

I can understand a team like N.O. using a dome, since they have to deal with hurricanes. If Carolina's team was in Wilmington, I could see it being in a dome.

Now teams like Atlanta that play in a dome...they are just plain SOFT! Atlanta has beautiful weather, but they play their games indoors.

Can't figure that one out.
