    Please say Kid Rock bottom is not getting close. No one wants to see that.

    Who is Brigitte Gabriel and why should I care if she thinks Kid Rock, who has done what lately, is a better artist/influence than Taylor Swift?

    Kid Rock had a fairly decent part in Joe Dirt... He has a couple of good country songs too.

    Oh no. Not at all.

    But he did have that part in Joe Dirt. Which is something a guy can really hang his hat on...

    My point isn't really whether Kid Rock or Taylor Swift is the better artist. Or even that Rock is a uniter and positive influence while Swift is a divider and negative influence, which IMO is horseshit. It's who in hell is this Brigitte person and why in hell should I give a flying fuck what she thinks.

    Kid Rock is an ignorant red neck. Looks like this Brigitte Gabriel is as well.

    If Texans hate it that much let's tear down Lloyd Center and move it there.

    As a steel bender, this is appalling. There isn't a stadium designed today that doesn't have rounded beams, or corners. But I guess i'm wrong on that. this should be demolished. What penny pinching BS...Ugliest thing I've ever seen and all they had todo was round the roof off instead of segment it like lincoln logs..


    Major fail.

    But not arrest worthy.

    I don't think it was a penny pinching move. I think it was a design choice.

    I'm sure the overall price was considered when the proposals were made, but there appear to be plenty of rounded beams and corners inside.

    Bending structural steel beams is extremely expensive. I'd could easily double the cost of the stadium roof. If they had the interior structural beams bent but didn't follow that line on the exterior, major fail. Why pay for that expensive process and not show it off to the world?

    To give you an idea, the globe in Vegas was bid one with bent material. over a million dollars in labor alone to bend it up. not to mention when bending steel it creates a 10-20% loss of material that is required to grab onto to bend and then gets cut off the usable section.

    Either way. Major fail.
