I’d rather see the Packers disbanded and never to play as a team again under the Packers logo than a dome over Lambeau Field. Domes are anti football, if it’s to hot, the move the season back a couple of weeks, too wet or windy, deal with it, the weather is the same for both teams on the field.

The Superbowl game was degraded because it was played on sod that had not yet taken root. That is so preposterous.

Back in my high school days, many small schools had their football field where the baseball diamond was. If it was muddy or even still raining, we played. Defense was harder because it was difficult to hang on the slimey muddy leg(s) of a ball carrier. You might end up with nothing but a shoe.

Went to a HS playoff over 25 yrs later to watch a game played on a rain saturated turf with 3” of wet snow. Had to have been a state record for fumbles. It seemed like the entire game was played between the 40s. Still snowing in overtime. Our team lost, but had demolished everybody previous, with superior size, speed, and athleticism. The wet mud and snow leveled the playing field that day. It became a game of who fumbled the least.
