Roger Goodell Wants Wi-Fi In Every Stadium.

Was watching NFLN. Goodell was on, conference.

He was talking about how in a conversation with the CEO of Nike, he mentioned to him that NBA players have more padding from the waist down and blah blah blah, safety this, and so on.

Then they moved on to some talks about how they have a plan to have Wi-Fi available for all 31 stadiums so the fans can stay connected. Fantasy football, redzone, etc.

They asked him how this would be thought out, how it would be paid for. He said there are some partners he would like to get, so they can help this vision go forth.

What I was thinking, would this fall to the PSL owners? They there be a price hike? All this is fairly new and I'm not sure of the schematics of it. But he didn't really address who would pay for it. I'm not a PSL owner, aspiring to be one day, but I'd be kinda peeved that the bill would fall on my lap.

Any folks with insight on this type of deals?

Probably would be in a partnership with a local internet provider. "Official WiFi provider of the Carolina Panthers" type deal.

It would probably entail putting routers at various points throughout the stadium. The trick would be to not provide free WIFi for the whole neighborhood. You would need to have either 1 huge wireless router, or multiple routers throughout the stadium.

They're going to make beer 10$ a bottle....

The last time I went to BoA, I paid $6 for a bottle. I nursed the hell out of that beer. Then I got thirsty again, bought another one. I realized I could have bought a 12 pack of beer for the two freaking bottles I just slowing sipped. Never again man. Next time I go, I'm going in drunk to the game.

They could turn the router off except for Sundays..and have a new password for every game. The password can be printed on tickets/etickets..or they could list the new password every Sunday through screens located throughout the facility. Wouldn't be that hard to do and would cater to individuals at the game.

I always drink before I go, I was drinking Jack at 10:00 am at the ATL game last season, but I always end up buying a couple before its all said and done.

No idea why anyone would need this. First of all, who doesn't have 3G or 4G these days. Secondly, you should be too busy drinking and watching the damn game to Tweet your witty insights to your 12 followers.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
