Domed Stadium

Yup Tour the nastiest game I can remember was watching the Browns play the Buccaneers in Tampa in October. Think it was around 95 in the shade, and unfortunately my seat was in the sun. Just sitting there sweat was pouring off me. Felt sorry for the players, it had to be 100+ on the field.
The NFL has a new definition of what constitutes a "sellout".
When we went to Tennessee this year Larry, that game was too hot for me. That was Mid Oct. in Nashville. The sun was searing hot. It really was not pleasant. Of course, combine that with the Browns performance, and it was just aggravated.

Gip, that game was pretty mellow compared to the Tampa game.
I'll let Zombo comment on the bus ride in September down to Miami with essentially no air conditioning. -

I'll let Zombo comment on the bus ride in September down to Miami with essentially no air conditioning.We lucked out in Miami... T-storms everywhere except over the stadium and the new awnings to boot. Game was quite comfortable even without the distraction of being in it the whole way.
The bus to the game? Not so much, thus my switch on the ride back to the bar in a bus with plenty of A/C.

Miami covers the fans, which it should, but not the field, which it shouldn't. It's a great stadium, and it was very comfortable in September.
I had them kill the A/C on the bus to set the proper tone for the fans. If there were a steel garbage can at the tailgate, I would have kicked it over

If the Titans stadium had had a cover like Miami's it would have been much more tolerable. But the sun was beating down on us there. The only respite we had was when an occasional cloud would cover the sun.

Attending an open-air-stadium game in Houston in August/September's typical 90+ degrees/90+% humidity would be a misery that no amount of fan fervor could overcome.
A meaningful, late-season, out-of-your-seat, intense Browns game with 70,000 allied fans would provide a warmth that CBS attendees have never experienced.

I found an excellent football stadium for when we move the team to Mexico. The great ancient Mayan ball court in Chichen-Itza is 225 ft. wide by 545 ft. long, more than enough to lay out the field. And it has enough room to handle our dwindling crowds on top as you can see. In addition Williams will be happy to institute that ancient Mayan custom as a motivator for his defense, i.e. loser gets his heart torn out and is sacrificed to the Gods.

You're gay. You live in Naples, Fla
That is just a poke in the ribs my friend.
Cleveland needs a dome.

I do believe you are seeing the End of Days for football in the city of Cleveland. I don't believe it can support a franchise any longer. Haslam is doing what he can to kill the crowds and justify his move.
Now here.. I totally disagree with you.. if the team starts winning.. all of that changes...

Can't imagine the Browns ever playing in a dome. Wouldn't seem right

Dead Wrong. And you know it Ghoolie. You are just being disingenuous and trying to stir up silly ship.
And, haven't you said that you were going to FRAK off to Vegas and become Raider fan? Looks like that is nearer to happening.
