Big Ten Title Game at Lambeau??
Now this is what I'm talking about. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=5383940 Might just be too cold for a lot of the weak sticks out there. Methinks no names need to be mentioned.

2. Football, contrary to some here, was made to be played in the elements.
Some folks here would like ANY championshp played in a Dome or a temperate climate of say, 70 degrees or above. Like the Bowl games. If the Big Ten decides to play a Championship game at Lambeau, they will be sending the absolute best definition of the league's identity. Yes, weather can be a factor. And, what's wrong with that? C'mon, Big Jim. We're ready for it. Most of us. There will always be the naysayers. They haven't lived in the cold climes for years. Fuck 'em.

6. Why Green Bay?
Green Bay is the mecca for how football should be played!

No damn domes, just real football.

Been there, done that, loved it!

7. No doubt, Capt.
Doesn't mean that Lambeau can't have it once in a while...I too, think it's a great idea. What an atmosphere!!

8. Number one, they should not have a title game, it's stupid
but if they do, it should be outside. At the largest stadium.

10. Now THAT would be cool.
No pun intended. I love the Packers and those people up there are about as avid of Wisconsin fans as you will ever see. But it ain't that far from Iowa or Minnesota or Chicago for that matter. And the city can certainly handle any big football type events as they have shown every week.

11. I'd go myself, Bluz.
Even if the Hawks weren't in the championship game. Which will be a very rare occasion.

12. It sure would be funny after years of hearing that the Big 10
doesn't need a title game, and has tougher teams because they play in bad weather, that this years title game will be played in a dome. On the other hand, those of you near Indy or Detroit should be psyched, you'll get to see a lot of title games.

13. It's all about the $$$, hughee.
You know that. Now, then. I've got to get back to the 700 Club. I am guaranteed the Lord's saving if I donate now during the 2 for 1 NASCAR special. My ticket to the promised land awaits.
