Ever since the famous Ice Bowl game the NFL has been protecting the Dallas Cowboys. This will be the 14th meeting between these two teams since that famous Ice Bowl and 13 games have been played in Dallas. According the the NFL that is just how the scheduling works out. The one time Dallas returned to Green Bay was in suny and warm September. So much for taking the home field advantage away from a team.
It is interesting that this year again we will be playing the last game against Chicago, another outdoor team. Do you people from other northern outdoor teams feel you are getting cheated by losing the home field advantage late in the season?

I also notice that when warm weather teams like Miami play in Green Bay, it's always in September. The scheduling in the NFL is a joke. No way would Miami go to GB in December, even though they often have to go to Buffalo at the end of the year. It's certainly not a level playing field when it comes to scheduling.
Go figure.

Dome Stadiums are build to intensfy the sound in the red zone and then only home fans can get tickets in that area. (except in Minnesota they only have sell outs when the Packers come to town).
Some people and players claim that wind currents can be created by the intake and exhaust fans used in Domes. I would like to see the schedule evened out or else creat a penality for crowd noise. Lets give the outdoor teams the same home field advantage opportunity that indoor and warm weather teams have.

I sure hope so i think it would be very fitting if Brett Vavre went into Dallas and finally beat them on there home field so the packers could go to the super bowl.
