Quote: Adamjk "It's not really an argument from a dome team perspective. A team like Green Bay obviously play in cold conditions and has in recent years always had a good passing game. I'm talking about when the weather gets so bad that it drags the game down to such a level that it isn't that great to watch. Saying that, I do still like the fact that games carry on regardless of weather but bad weather games generally bore me to tears. I like a good low scoring defensive battle but when the ball is barely travelling in the air and players look like they're trying to run across quicksand, it bores me. I get the feeling that most people have this romanticised, nostalgic view of snow games because I don't understand how people can enjoy watching them.'"
I think it comes down to preparation and discipline/mental toughness when it gets in bad weather situations. Something which, understandably, dome teams/warm weather teams don't have. Many games are played in horrible conditions but the games are still good because both teams are prepared for it. eg. Packers v Giants (Brett's last game) which was the second coldest game ever and the week before when we played Seattle in a blizzard.
I'm not actively hoping for poor weather but i think it is excellent that the opportunity is there for changing conditions.
