Tell me again why Browns Stadium shouldn't have roof
-
Indeed. The NHL just played an outdoor game at Fenway. I'd hardly say 1 game a year is a good argument.
They are played for nostalgic reasons. No team is going to take their entire season outdoors.
it was kinda like a side note I was just wondering if they had played that game yet, not saying they should play hockey outdoors year round

Good deal.
I think the game is in February. As a season ticket holder i keep getting info about being able to buy tickets for the game. I don't pay any real attention. I like Hockey and usually drive the 100 miles or so to Nashville to catch a couple of matches a year, but I won't drive 600 miles to go watch OSU/Mich play outside in Feb.

So the cold weather dilemma doesn’t effect NY teams?
Interesting ?
Market size$$$$$$$$$$$/

Don't know why if the technology is available, why any football franchise would want a strictly "open field" stadium. They should all have retractable roofs or just have a dome if the stadium is in an area where harsh weather is the norm. Playing in conditions like they did in the Browns/Saints game is just idiotic. This isn't the 50's anymore.

I agree, it’s not about the weather.

Because theyre not good enough to justify the cost.

At this stage in life, I seek the desert and loathe the winter. However, if I had the chance to see the Browns in the AFC championship game by way of 50 yard line seats, I would attend if the game was played on the frigid, snowy lakefront, but honestly would refuse if it was in a dome.
Cleveland football is played on the lakefront. If a new stadium is built elsewhere, for me it will be another piece of America gone to hell.
Thats one way to look at it I guess. I think there's a half dozen or more sites in the large, spread out, city of Cleveland that would be a better site than where the stadium currently is both for accessibility and for weather but, again, the team is not good enough to justify the cost. If they made the playoffs three seasons in a row they'd be in a better position to go begging for public handouts.

I've said it before, I fear another move. Funding is a true potential problem, and one other thing is the continued losing is killing a fan base. If you're under 30/35. years old you've seen nothing but sadness, except a season or 3.

Where would they move? Who would want them there? Unless they plan on opening up an entirely new market like iowa or maine or nebraska i just dont see a lot of landing spots.
Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind... -

Cities poach each other, could be anywhere. St. Louis, Memphis, Birmingham, Portland, Oklahoma City, San Diego.
I don't trust Haslam. I trust his desire to win, but not his management. Ever notice during broadcasts that the narrative is always about our opponents? Yesterday was a Steeler infomercial. I think the NFL thinks he's a bum ( last straw was the DW contract).
I hope they never move. That was the worst in 95.

Look Bowie! You got the song wrong. It's a Stones song. StarFuckaStar FuckaStar FuckaStar FuckaStar
...and I'm not saying dome, I'm saying roof. It can be retractable. I tell ya what, perhaps they can construct it such that certain sections can be glassed off from the rest of the stadium thus allowing climate conditions in that section such as pouring rain or severely cold temperatures with snow so that you and Zombo can sit there.

But it doesn't have to be a dome. Retractable roof. You just don't have to freeze when it's 30 below.

Very true! Aside from that reality here in 2023, the last time the Browns won a playoff game at home was January 1, 1995.
I would rather have the Browns use a prehistoric Ice Bowl era mentality toward adding some NFL caliber DTs that can actually stop the run and free-up the LBers that all ended up on IR. We do that, and maybe our very strong running game has a chance to get more credit for its efforts than a 7-10 record.
Everybody likes to talk tough about the dome thing. That's fine because our history in previous eras rewarded it. That said, when the Browns still had playoff hopes alive against a beatable Saints team in the 15 below zero winds chills off the lake - there were a lot of empty seats. Not only that, the Browns receivers dropped 3 passes in the end zone on a very bad day to be throwing the ball.

The one Super Bowl he won with the Packers they were a 6th seeded Wild Card Team that played all their playoff games on the road.

Good stat of the day ZERO.. Maybe just maybe the Green Bay Packers players were OK with not playing in ... " The frozen tundra of Lambeau Field " .... in my best NFL Films John Facenda voice. Ever wonder about that ?
But it sure was romantic in the 1960s, 1970s even 1980s with those Ice Bowl games.
Almost makes you yearn for a rendition of. " The Autumn Wind " by John Facenda now that the playoffs are on.
OK here it is .... think Lambeau in January..... John Madden in the booth..... who needs a dome......
The autumn wind is a pirate
Blustering in from sea
With a rollicking song, he sweeps along
Swaggering boisterously
His face is weather beaten
He wears a hooded sash
With a silver hat about his head
And a bristling black mustache
He growls as he storms the country
A villain big and bold
And the trees all shake and quiver and quake
As he robs them of their goldThe autumn wind is a Raider
Pillaging just for fun
He'll knock you 'round and upside down
And laugh when he's conquered and won
