i don't mind having the crappiest field ever going against fast teams for a Playoff game. PLAYOFFS????? the hoody would have his staff accidentally forget to turn off the water sprinklers back in the day. but this is still the regular season but in a way it technically is a playoff game for us.

Roof closed. This isn't directed you at Pete but I'm surprised folks still ask about the roof or are surprised it's closed. Forget the roof rules(50/80?) and everything else, they don't open that thing.

They had it open last night for a college game, but don't open it for an NFL game... when the day is perfect. Really dumb.
