You'd think that having a brand new stadium with a retractable roof would make life easier. Guess again... :crying:

:confused: Some people just can't figure it out. D-Backs are creating their own mess here.

Well, that's a better prblem to have than the problem the Brewers have with Miller Park. It's been a cold rainy Spring here and they've found out the place should be heated and the roof leaks.

Well, I enjoy it when the roof is open. The argument is moot now since today its over 100 degrees again. The roof will be closed until October....

Yea, the stadium here has way too many ads on it, but it is a very nice ballbark. The roof does work and I don't think there has ever been an issue with it....

Uh, 115 degrees? Have you ever tried to sit in the sun for 3 hours in Phoenix without getting skin cancer? They couldn't get 5 fans to show up.
