ArthursMoustache 513 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 As an architect, I knew that $1B was never going to be the price. Not with the engineering and moving roof. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not with the engineering and moving roof.Oh yeah it was clear. Didnt the Dallas Stadium cost 1 Billion? 5 years later and you can easily assume ours will be way over that. The extra is coming out of the Falcons pockets it looks like. Which, as we know in the business world, means it is coming out of the customers pockets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GetUSom3 302 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 If Arthur ever decides to have that TD lump removed from his rear-end, it might hurt to lose his "Mini-me" for a while, but find someone that knows what they are doing and the healing will be fast.

Enough with the bullshyt already!This is extremely getting old folks. I've been a fan since the 70's and this goes out to all my vet fans of this team who have put up with so much.We were so close and now going backwards again.

This experiment is not freaking working!!!!Later folks....I'm off to get some beer!BTW... the latest coach smith presser teed me off! Sorry to all you smitty lovers but he phukin sucks!

Big_Dog 7,201 Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 I wouldn't want to be in Smitty's shoes the rest of this season and having to face the media, or face many of the teams we still have to play. If I were him I'd fake an illness or injury and stay home. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FulC0 723 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 Replicating a human sphincter on such a grand scale is a mighty expensive undertaking, especially when it is built due south of the ghetto. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Compared to the ghetto, the area north of the new stadium is Disney World. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hjerry 26,693 Posted October 29, 2013 Share Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) Maybe the Pyramids? Slave Labor?Thats probably it lolActually, dating of the pyramids, puts them built at a time before the enslavement, which I assume that you are referring to. Slaves may have been involved, but not "those" slaves. Edited October 29, 2013 by hjerry Quote Link to post Share on other sites
