that's good stuff...learning from a top shelf coach will only make his transition that much smoother for him.  Not having to rebuild mechanics is a great thing for a young qb.

What is the stadium in the background of all the SWC Roundup posts?  Is it the old Texas Stadium in Irving?

No, it’s not Texas Stadium.  I think it may be the Astrodome in Houston.

Yeah, That's the Astrodome. I used to go to Astro and Oiler games there back in the 70's and early 80's when it looked like that. The Bull and Pistols were awesome. I like the old school stuff. I wish the city would renovate it back to it's glory days, and the Astros would move back. I hate Minute Maid Park.

Yeah, when I was a kid going to Candlestick and the Oakland Coliseum in the 70s and 80s, I had a lot of envy for Astros fans.  I thought that dome and Astroturf were about the coolest things I'd ever seen on television except of course for those Astros uniforms, which are still to this day one of my favorite designs.

Its probably STILL better than the Alamodome, even in its current dilapidated state...

Dude... I love the Astros... and Minute Maid is... not good...

Give me the Ballpark in Arlington over Minute Maid.

This. Minute Maid was too tricked up when it opened with the hill in center field for instance.  The Ballpark is a true ballpark and should not be replaced.

The Ballpark is gorgeous.  It is one of my favorite and tearing it down so they can fleece taxpayers again is a disgrace.  

Minute Maid just does it’s job very well.  All seats are tight to the field and big open concourses make it a good game day experience.  I just wish they still allowed them to open the roof mid game.  Everyone loved watching it open after the sun went down.

I like Minute Maid--and I love the Ballpark in Arlington, just sad to see us build MMP 2.0 up here to withstand the heat. But I do get why they are doing it, since it costs the team in gate receipts bigtime during the weeknight games in the summer.

MMP is nice, though, even if its mostly used as an indoor stadium. I like it even more now that the hill is gone in center field.
