Shame they don't have any fans that go to the games. then again, who would want to go to that ****hole and chance getting mugged.

a baseball pitch on the field. Looked a right mess.

the decrepit coliseum

There used to be lots of them. Let me think here:

Cleveland
San Francisco
Denver
Baltimore (Colts)
Atlanta
Green Bay when they played in Milwaukee
NY Jets (Shea Stadium)
San Diego
LA Rams (Anaheim Stadium)

then there were a few that had astroturf, so they covered up the basepaths with astroturf:

St. Louis
Cincinnati
Pittsburgh
Philadelphia

Now Oakland/Alameda County Colisseum is the last one left.

September football used to be a bit sketchy at times back then, especially when it rained!

In fact at the end I was in favor of letting the punk go. Too much money for 10 years. Would have done the same annual for 5, maybe 6. Definitely not 10.

AW has taught me well. http://www.awimb.com/images/smiley_icons/nod.gif

quarterback (obviously). cutler didn;t have protection the first couple years but he has an absolutely golden arm. as does rodgers. it's one of the most beautiful things in sports, that throw some qbs can make to the sideline.
