      The article seems very sarcastic lol. At least we have the sports bubble I guess.

        That is something to be thankful for (sports bubble).
        At least the stadium finally has railings, before an accident happens and a possible lawsuit. As apparently there are no current plans for a new stadium.

            Here is the locker that I sponsored. Take a tour if you get the chance, that locker room is very impressive!

              The new locker room was a very positive upgrade.

                For those of you who have risked taking a tumble at the Blake- the new handrails have been installed. I heard $200,000.

                    I thought they had to comply with ADA rules for any renovation greater than $50k?

                      No idea- just stating numbers that I heard at the Touchdown Club meeting. New scoreboard will be coming in- nothing fancy, bare bones, but they don't make parts/lightbulbs for the old one. Take what you can get.

                      That press box is awful. But they can't renovate it because then they would have to include handicap access- which would mean an elevator. Patrick Reusse of the Star*Tribune would love it, but that won't happen. Some Mav fan may have to win the lottery to get a new Blake.

                          Did you ever read the SI story about how K-State turned things around. Some guy won the lottery and donated a lot of it to the school for football. They hired John Wefald (can't remember if he was still at Southwest then) and hired Snyder. Complete turnaround for the worst program in D1 football.

                            I believe it was about five years ago there was a hypothetical plan for a combined football/soccer stadium. Apparently that fell by the wayside; for now anyway. Agree that it seems questionable to spend money on renovations when the entire structure really should be replaced. With a new one that could also be used by the women's soccer program.
                            I suppose in the final analysis, the money to build one has to come from somewhere, and that seems to be the problem.
