You build your team around your playing conditions.

So the Vikings who have their two year hiatus from a dome are now the monsters of the frozen tundra?

 

[fknhippie]

That's a bunch of BS. Give me one player worth a shit that you would have passed on because of playing conditions. Let the fans n the stadium detriment the hfa nor the "potential bad weather".

I should have phrased that better. Not player specific more how the offense is designed to take advantage of home field conditions.

 

[JMR]

I really don't take you seriously either. You're a homer that is taking a blind eye to the fact that Seattle doesn't have the same "it" factor that Vikings will have in the upcoming cold weather game. You'll see, and you'll likely blame the refs.

The spread is holding at Seattle -5 despite they skyscraping piles of cash you're laying on the Vikings.

Fair enough. It's kind of a pointless debate. Indoor vs outdoor is all about fan preference. Some like it in, some like it out. That will never change.

I just prefer a more consistent playing area. I like outdoors just fine when the weather is decent. Some rain or light snow is ok too, but when you start getting into extreme conditions it has the potential to change games. I remember watching a Chicago game once where it was so windy kicking a FG or extra point was impossible. That being said, it is what it is and this weekends game will be played in the same conditions for both teams so there shouldn't be an advantage for either side really. The cold could deliver a few fluke plays though so both sides will have to watch out for that.

LOL...most debates on these forums are pointless, I don't think anyone changes someone else's mind on anything.

I'll tell you this, if I lived in Arizona, there's no way I'd sit outside and bake my brain. Heat is way worse than cold. I don't know how you guys handle that weather.

between 60 - 70 degrees and sunny most of the year. Sure those 3 months of extreme heat are brutal, but the other 9 months make it well worth it.

Today is an extreme weather day in phoenix. A low of 45 and rainy. Time to bust out the heavy jacket, gloves and beanie.

Nope. Dome team for a long time and now they play outdoors. Seattle's weather is pretty mild though compared to the cold they get in Minny or Wisconsin. Like I said, I'm more or less fine with it, I'd just prefer to play in more normal conditions like what all the teams have played in all year long.

Played in the Kingdome from '76-'99. Outside since.

T-shirt weather here

T-shirt weather here

at 45 I'm wearing shorts and a t-shirt on the golf course.

Amazing how we acclimate to our environment.

 

[handicappers]

Have a gut feeling that some of the Seahawks players are not liking the idea of poor weather. Look for some of them to lose even more heart and determination than before.

I know. I picked a bad week to hang in Phx after our game.

Your gut feeling is in truth...
Diarrhea.
It has been coming out of both of your ends for almost a week.

A week. I've been making successful handicapped tips for years. You just didn't know. Now ya do.

If you like makin' fat stacks, then plug up your diarrhea hole and lay it all on the Vikings to win.....straight up.

I heard they could luck out and get a degree or two above zero on Sunday!
