Real teams like the Bengals practice outside. It obviously gives them an advantage lol
Just another case of some of the older generation ranting about the glory days and how they were better. Technology and sports medicine be damned, we want our players dying of heat stroke or freezing their asses off!

Personally, I was thinking about moving my workstation outside in the snow so I could be awesomer at my job, too. Is Mike Brown's office inside? Should I take the roof off my house? I don't want to become a wimp.

SO the most recent one is Jan. 20, 2008 - Lambeau Field (copy/paste is obvious)
Which you would expect the NFL to be more tolerant of because of the Mystique
Yup, i can see them calling The Freezer Bowl off in 2019. How sad is that?
With that said it is a different era and as mentioned we have to change with the times even if some of us don't really like it.

Yep back when I played water was bad for you and the cause of cramps. You were only allowed 3 sips when given permission with a coach watching.
Some coaches even gave out salt pills.
Times have changed.
The water tastes funny when you're far from your home,
yet it's only the thirsty that hunger to roam.
Roam the Jungle !

Didn't there used to be a stat that said that dome teams have a losing record when playing in open-air stadiums in poor or cold weather conditions?

We could go on by talking about whether it is stupid or awesome that Mike Brown doesn't let the players take free Gatorade, or shampoo or whatever that other argument was.

Just think of the Gatorade money he saved having Coach Lewis...… no 5 gallon dumps.

Is it wrong that my first thought was that you were saying no 5 gallon defecations and I was like, Gatorade doesn't make you poop?

Naw, as a Bengals fan, it's not your fault you've probably never seen a Gatorade cooler dumped on a coach.....

So, what? We are never vying for a Super Bowl so we don't need one.

There was an article in the enquire about the indoor practice facility situation a couple of months ago. I couldn't believe the stupid that came out of the Black Burns mouth on the subject.
