Storm collapses Cowboys' practice bubble - The Orange Mane

On CNN now, 3:45 Mountain Time

There are just not enough bad things that can happen to that franchise IMO.

Hogan11 · 05-02-2009, 02:48 PM

That was pretty wild I must admit

DenverBrit · 05-02-2009, 02:50 PM

Hahahaha! Storm collapses Cowboys' practice bubble

Why is that funny?

Fortunately, everyone is accounted for.

BroncoBuff · 05-02-2009, 02:50 PM

I just think it's funny because Jerry Jones is such an egomaniac, and that new stadium is a Bacchanalian excess .... of course I hope nobody was hurt in any way. I hope that goes without saying

I heard on the radio at least one coach was taken to hospital in an ambulance.
Early reports said the players were all accounted for.
Yeah, Jones is a tool, but it's the team and coaches who were at risk.

Why the eye roll?

Just say: "I thought it was funny that roof fell in, but I didn't want anyone hurt, and since no one was injured or killed it's funny"

This is the eye roll you were referring to I think:

And this is the eye roll in between those two:

I am sorry to hear about the coach (obviously) ... I guess I just remembered the Broncos first bubble ... I worked there in 1984 when Reeves bought it, and the material is very thin ... I suppose like a slightly thicker canvas than that canvas painters paint on. It has to be light for the air pressure in the bubble to inflate it.

I'm sorry that you guys thought I would laugh at anybody's injuries. Can't believe you thought that though.

It didn't occur to me that you were laughing at injuries, I was curious as to why it was funny as it didn't seem so to me.

The Broncos new bubble collapsed like three times in '84, and we thought it was pretty funny, we ran over from the 58th street offices to watch it deflate, even Joe Ellis was laughing/embarrassed ... I dunno.

I suppose if you like Jerry Jones and his ego, fine. But anything that embarasses him strikes me as funny.

Sounded pretty funny to me. Accidents are often funny until you find out someone got hurt.

Bronx33 · 05-02-2009, 03:24 PM

Lighten the **** up people buff had no idea anybody got hurt so quit passing judgement like an a-hole.

footstepsfrom#27 · 05-02-2009, 03:25 PM

Its all over the news right now...4 staff people were injured, apparently none seriously.

I'll tell you this...this was NASTY. I came through Dallas 2 hours ago and the road basically just dissapeared right in front of me on I-35 South. I've driven in white out blizzard conditions but this was unreal...a downpour that I couldn't see through at all. The only reason I didn't run off the road is because I could make out tail lights. Had I been able to see where the road was I'd have got of it to wait it out.

Who's passing judgment, other than you.

Rock Chalk · 05-02-2009, 03:36 PM

Buff,

If Denver's bubble collapsed 3 times, and I assume other bubbles have also collapsed, then how is it embarrassing to Jones if his bubble collapses?

I dont like Jones, but I dont see what was so funny about the incident.

Then again, you like that stupid dumbass Colbert so your taste for what is funny is pretty nil anyway.

footstepsfrom#27 · 05-02-2009, 03:42 PM

I'd be on board with an earthquake opening up a giant hole and swallowing this billion dollar doondogle stadium over here. You can't go anywhere around here now because every dang street is closed off and a lot of those that aren't are one lane only. It took 25 minutes to get my kids the other day when it should have taken 5...plus anytime the Rangers play they actually baricade streets...which gums it up even worse.

Sassy · 05-02-2009, 03:43 PM

Now they are saying 7 hurt with five rushed to the hospital and one critically injured.

Borks147 · 05-02-2009, 03:43 PM

well, looks like someone was critically injured, someone mind taking the "hahahaha" off the front of the title?
