		<description><![CDATA[How about the fact that there is zero home field advantage?  The Orange Bowl was imposing and LOUD.  You were on top of the players.  This stadium is laid back and quiet.  Nobody can get into the game.  A cover might help with noise, but they need to hire a crowd consultant for the redesign.  Part of the fun of going to a game is feeling like you can contribute to a home field advantage.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“The reality is that most stadiums are either retractable or covered,”

Actually, the reality Mr. Dee is that you are inventing &quot;reality&quot;....otherwise known as making things up. 9 out of 32 NFL stadiums have roofs. One (Seattle) you could argue is reasonably &quot;covered&quot;. That is 10 out of 32. Far from a majority and even further from &quot;reality&quot;.

The true reality is that it&#039;s been years since your organization produced a worthy product. Maybe if you spared us the pandering, posturing, &quot;paupering&quot; and passing of buck, and instead focused on this rather key facet, your fans would be a wee bit more interested/likely to show up.

But who knows, maybe I&#039;m wrong. And maybe you&#039;re right; not about majorities/realities, of course, but the other stuff. I mean, clearly Steelers fans stay away from uncovered Heinz Field in droves &#039;til they covered it, right? So yeah, given the comparable weather at each, I&#039;m sure a quick $100 million covering is all you need and that&#039;ll sort out all the Dolphins issues.]]></description>

Here&#039;s an idea--do that again.  Build another stadium next to the current one.  Do the financing yourselves.]]></description>
