Best thing about the new digs - at least it won't take 3 hours to walk up and down those mobility-friendly sprial walkways anymore.

What's with NFL stadiums not having roofs? Also, trying to work out if this is the stadium I saw in the paper the other day. Doesn't appear to be but it costs around the same. It's under construction and boasts the biggest high definition screens in the world. They basically spawn the whole length of the field and hang from the ceiling.

"Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has said the screen will be the largest high-definition television screen in the world. The 160 foot by 72 foot, 11,520 square foot scoreboard will replace the 8,736 square foot screen that opened in 2009 at the renovated Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri as the world's largest."

Above quote courtesy of Wikipedia. To put that into perspective the new screens at Telstra Stadium are 23m x 10m. The metric dimensions for the Cowboys Stadium scoreboard are (roughly) 49m x 22m.

Personally I think he is trying to over compensate for something.

I hope there is a video screen facing skywards - so God can watch it.

I can't stand David Koch - the way he thinks that Australia is the greatest country to have ever graced this earth and that no one else but Australians can do great things.

Here's a pic, that a non-Australian can do great things. Suck sh*t Kochie.
