Authentic Womens Preston Brown Jersey
Добавлено: Ср сен 12, 2018 9:14 amWith Detroit among the possibilities for an MLS expansion team in 2020 Jim Plunkett Jersey , the Lions are looking at ways they can make Ford Field work for soccer.
And that includes the possibility of retrofitting their stadium with a retractable roof.
Lions team president Rod Wood said during an interview on WJR-AM that they’re looking at their options, since MLS teams have to play outdoors and teams prefer grass surfaces. He said he’s discussing the project with NBA owner Dan Gilbert and his group which is bidding for the Detroit franchise, along with local basketball executive Arm Tellem.
“Building another stadium makes no sense with the three that we have,” Wood said, via the Detroit Free Press. “I think there’s a purist wing in the MLS and they like to play on grass Will Redmond Jersey , they like to play outside. They have preferred smaller stadiums, although the two most successful franchises play in football stadiums, in Atlanta and Seattle. They regularly draw 40, 50, 60 Justin Ellis Jersey ,000 fans and I think we might have a shot at doing the same thing downtown.
“With all the vibrancy downtown and all the young people now working downtown that love soccer, and coming off the World Cup where everybody was very interested in what’s going on. It’d be great to have that downtown, but we’ll see about the roof.”
There is that one big problem which has to be discussed.
“We’ll figure out who’s going to pay for it after we figure out the cost,” Wood said.
That’s probably going to range in the hundreds of millions.
They’re not the only NFL facility eying the MLS, as new Panthers owner David Tepper has mentioned the soccer league in both his press conferences since buying the team. It also gives the Lions options for their own games Jared Cook Jersey , at least for the ones early enough in the season that anyone might want to enjoy the elements.
The Jets moved into their second week of OTAs on Tuesday and first-round pick Sam Darnold got some time quarterbacking the first team during the practice.
Head coach Todd Bowles said after the session that “it is nothing to read into” because Darnold, Josh McCown and Teddy Bridgewater are all getting the same amount of reps as the team goes through the offseason program. He did add Darnold has already grown “more comfortable” and that Bridgewater is “progressing and getting better” in his early work.
All of that adds up to Bowles feeling like the team has “three good quarterbacks that we can play with” and that those three quarterbacks can make each other better over the next few months.
“They all see different things,” Bowles said in comments distributed by the team. “And if they all can give each other advice on the field about what they saw on certain plays and they all understand the plays that are going on, if they can feed off of each other and take each other鈥檚 advice, I think it can鈥檛 help but catapult the chemistry to a better level and help those guys play better.”
The Jets and the NFL have a pretty good idea about what McCown brings to the table Carl Banks Jersey , but Bridgewater’s long injury layoff and Darnold’s rookie status mean there’s more mystery elsewhere on the depth chart. Similar mysteries haven’t come to satisfying conclusions for the Jets in the past, but that’s not getting in the way of optimism at the position for the first time in some time for the AFC East club.
