Re: Problem w/ Cowboys giant screen.

ESPN is reporting that the screen was installed actually several yards HIGHER than what the NFL mandated.

But now the NFL is looking into it deeper. It is estimated that it would cost an additional 2 million to raise the scooreboard. And I would bet that the NFL would have to share some of the cost.

Yeah i just read that about the 2 million. Thats the reason he doesnt want to move it. I think the league should pony up most of the cost if they want it to go up. I think that if that happens JJ should not expect anymore superbowls there, but at least he will be "right".
