Reason #290 - Economic Stimulus
The economy and housing market are in free-fall. So why spend time talking about a roof for at least one of our stadiums? Because it is the economic stimulus we need, and if it doesn't help, at least we'll have an enjoyable event experience to take our minds off all of our other troubles.

The AFC and NFC Championships will be played in the two coldest venues in the NFL - Boston and Green Bay. The forecast is for temperatures in the teens. They need roofs too.
