From what might be the funniest story in sports, over the past weekend, the Dallas Cowboys unveiled their 1.2 billion dollar palace of a gridiron.  A pre-season game had them up against the Tennesee Titans.  During a point in the game, the Titans had to punt, the kick went up and and never made it over to the Cowboys. The ball hit the scoreboard.

The 2100 inch TV that hangs in the middle of the structure.  The structure is 60 yards wide and hangs 25 yards above.  The result of the play was a do-over.  That’s right boys and girls, thanks to completely horrific design flaws; the do-over rule instituted when we played football during recess will now be used in professional football.

Now, I am no master of architecture or interior design, but I do know how football operates.  How the hell did this happen?  Did one of the cheerleaders design it? They completely forget what the building was for?  It’s for football for crying out loud.  The Cowboys are the richest team in all of Football and are in the top 5 of all of sports, and this is the best design that money could buy.  It’s almost like Cowboy owner Jerry Jones got the biggest TV he could find at Best Buy and completely forgot it wouldn’t fit in his apartment.

Yes, friends... the box it came in is housing the entire homeless population of Dallas!

Another thing I don’t fully understand is, you pay all this money to watch the game from your seat, why the hell do you even need a screen that big?  You pay 100 bucks for your seat just to watch TV??  None of this really makes sense.  I really hope that the league tells them they have to make a change.  Oh. how that would make my weekend.  Speaking as a New York Giant fan nothing would make me happier than the Cowboys having to drop another half million to either raise the screen higher, or even better, having to scrap the idea of the scoreboard altogether.  Imagine driving outside the stadium and you see that scoreboard just sitting on the ground with a cardboard sign on it that says, “If you got the room, it’s yours!” If you ask me… a big dumb television sums up Texas quite nicely!
