How is he doing?
I like this addition more and more as it moves along - I think it is going to be a real asset for the football program.

I agree about the blue aluminum. I do still hope for closing in the underbelly (which would take care of that) and a raised walkway in the NEZ until we can bowl it in. This is looking awesome, though!

The concrete section below would probably need to be modified and new rails would need to be installed. I'm not sure how secure the railing underneath that sheet metal.

Wasn't the sheet metal put up as a safety measure to keep kids out of danger originally? As a kid, I remember climbing on those bars - stupidity, when my parents were not watching, with my friends.

Are the banners injured yet? I am still confused as to why those were not taken down before construction started.

Why take 'em down when you can spend money on new ones?

Since we really don't have any "press" covering our games anymore, shouldn't it be called something other than a "pressbox"??? :D
