Does the scoreboard hang from cables like at NBA venues

where it can be raised or lowered at will? The fact that the NFL Competition Committee is meeting today to discuss what to do viewed in light of the thing being so massive suggests it's hard wired and a fix is going to cost millions in demo and restructuring. How long would it take to repair? What happens to the scheduled games in the meanwhile? These are issues the NFL will be taking up today. Romanowski says it's a non issue and no big thing, but you can be sure the NFL doesn't see it that way nor does Jerry Jones' wallet. The story isn't being covered closely by the media because it lacks interest or significance.

Romanowski's obsession with cyhugogreen doesn't answer the question posed by this thread nor make him right as he absurdly dismissed the scoreboard issue as trivial. Like infants his pals chime in, in a feeding frenzy avoiding the issue as well. I asked a question about the scoreboard and once again Romanowski is in attack mode along with his groupies or whatever they are that keeps them from thinking. I'd ask the Mods this time to take note of where the disparagement and negativity originates.

I would assume so, I don't see any pillars holding it up, and it's certainly not defying the laws of gravity and floating.

cyhugo, do you have any other explanation of how its up there other than cables?
