    Why do people always see this as "OMFG! MS Fail!" instead of "Oh wow, almost all electronics runs on Windows".

    Oh and BTW,

    I call this BS.
    First, if i recall correctly, this message only appears when you force shutdown or when power is cut, a BSOD leaves a dump file, so after a crash the computer starts normally. (but dont take my word for it, it's been ages since i had a BSOD)
    And second, i really, reeeeeeeeeaaally doubt that a bios screen can appear on a ticker (shit, it doesn't even appear on my secondary monitor/TV) I'm pretty sure that you need software for that.

    @Acheron's Grief: So you don't think that somebody in the Cowboys office forced a shutdown?

    And for your second point... it's not a BIOS screen, it's a Windows screen. Seriously, if you don't know the difference between your BIOS and a Windows pre-boot text mode message, don't pretend you know anything about computers.

    I dunno, I feel that would have to be put there. Its not like Windows natively supports scrolling banner LED screens as a main monitor. This would likely be driven my a PC with software on top controlling what shows on the banner. I'd take it as someone pratting around.

    jerry jones is an idiot. when the colts built their new stadium they had there kicker go out and test the level they wished to use. seems like an obvious step when building a FOOTBALL stadium.

    The punters should just learn not to hit it. It's above regulation limits so they ought to know better. If they hit it, it's a bad punt and they should be thankful for the re-do.

    @Bandit: If this were baseball, it would be one thing. I'm not saying this because baseball's rules are any more or less fair, but because one of the things that baseball prides itself on is that each stadium is unique which causes the game to be played differently at each stadium. The Baltimore Chop of olden days only works with baseball because teams were able to create strategies based off of a particular stadium. However, football is a sport where the field is the same at every stadium. Other than the lighting and what surface is used, every football field is supposed to be the same and play the same way, and teams should not have to change their strategies based off of an obstruction.

    How about they raise the scoreboard 5 feet and lower the field 5 feet. That should cut the costs in half.
