Problem w/ Cowboys giant screen.

I'll admit the screen looks awesome, but it's a fail on the execution end. It's hilarious to see punts shanking off of it.

It's impressive in size and technology, no doubt, but it probably doesn't look awesome while in the stadium, as I posted before...it has to be a huge distraction when trying to watch the field. It stretches from the 20 to the 20 yard-line, you can't escape it.


It's well suited for a Madden tournament, but not really for a live game. It gets in the way visually as well as physically on punts.

I agree. Unless you're sitting in the lower level, most fans probably aren't even watching the field.

There are some folks on a Cowboys board who went to the game the other night and talked about this. The general consensus of fans who seem sane (a minority on a Cowboys board) is that those in the lower levels are not distracted but those in the upper levels cannot escape the presence of the screens to focus on the field. Some said that they could not see the field well because the screens were in the way.

I'm laughing at you Dallas, not with you.
