People aren't happy in their life and are miserable so all they can do is complain, moan, groan, and hope they bring others down.

Ignore them. Let them sulk alone.

The stadium is gonna be just fine. I don't give two shits what the hell it looks like; just win. Play in the freaking street for all I care; just win.

I like it a lot. Good balance of new school while keeping the traditional endzones. Not making it too cartoony.

This has probably been covered in the past but just how traditional are the diagonal endzone lines? I remember in the 70's there being script in the end zones.

Does anyone know how the end zones have been painted over the years?

Quick question: Do you think the STRICT traditionalists whining at NDNation still drive their Duesenbergs to the game?

I have to be fair to those guys. I happen to agree with a lot of their positions (grass and Alma Mater to name two), their problem is in delivery. Nobody is going to take you seriously if you present angled lines that are slightly different than previous angled lines as an affront to nature and Our Lady herself.

EDIT: Also, a Studebaker is the appropriate hardcore traditionalist vehicle for a Notre Dame fan. Duh.

Does that mean Osceola won't be throwing the spear down in the field anymore?

I've always kinda liked that.

Is the FSU logo for their indoor practice facility? I haven't heard that they were switching the surface at the stadium.

Jamesis Winston you are totally and absolutely correct. To quote you precisely and exactly: "Crab legs taste so much better when crab legs are FREE."

I think Clashmore Mike should be brought back so he can sniff the traditional Irish costal grasses!

Glad they remembered to cut the holes for the goal posts.
