What a ***** crock of shit. Do really believe the absolute nonsense you're writing? I find it almost impossible to believe that some of fans are actually stupid enough to buy into such obvious outdated, antiquated bs. I think it's just regurgitated bologna that people have become so accustomed to spouting out as a defense that they say it without even thinking about it.
How the **** do the Steelers do so well when they practice indoors? Better yet, explain the Patriots. Both those organizations, the two most successful in the league by far, use indoor facilities. Explain that. If any of what you just said was true teams like San Fran and Oakland would have never gotten out of places like New York and Minnesota in the 70's. Except they did.
Football is meant to play both indoor and outdoors. And all that other crap about taking pride in "Bengals weather ready" and gaining confidence is all the more laughable when you reference a team who hasn't won a playoff game since Home Alone was in theaters. We practiced outside and then proceeded to lose to a team from ***** San Diego in PBS by 17 ***** points.
Jesus Christ, wake the **** up.
I was at that game against San Diego and it was like 50 degrees at game time. It didn't get blistering cold until the morning after. I was at the Palmer knee playoff game too. Again it was pretty warm for January. The 09 jets playoff game I was at, was chilly but not necessarily inclement. They lost every single one of those games and I don't think it has one thing to do with where they practiced, the weather they practiced in, or even the weather they played in.
Unless it's a monsoon or a blizzard I really don't think it is necessary. On the really bad days they have a place to go and that's what matters, Would it be nice to have their own? Sure. Do they need it to win (or lose)? Nope.
