    sounds like it's perfectly representative of the thirty-thousandaire.

    Wowza, great looking stadium. Now if Jesus himself can make an appearance at the stadium it would a nice finishing touch.

    [whine] But I hate the Cowboys. So I get to help pay for a way to get to their stupid stadium? Makes no sense. Death to Dallas. And Arlington.

    Those scoreboards in the center is an interesting idea. I hope they have the best engineers working on it.

    Looks pretty pimp, but like Max said..... are they going to have to change the name to Arlington Cowboys?

    How can a stadium be $700 million over budget and not break some kind of over budget clause in the tax code that passed its funding?

    Have you ever been to Dallas? Texas stadium may be in Irving, but it's only 10 minutes from downtown!

    From where I live it only takes me 25 minutes to get to Arlington, 15 minutes to Texas Stadium and only 7 minutes to get to AA Center.

    Not too shabby for having 3 different arenas in 3 different cities...

    Anyways, beautiful stadium but I like still like Reliant more!

    Nice, but man, that huge scoreboard/screen suspended from the middle makes me nervous.
