Texans-Ravens postponed

[mackfan1]

Game status is "uncertain." Unbelievable. Houston spends $500 million on a state-of-the-art, retractable roof, all-weather stadium and it can't withstand a cat. 2 hurricane?

The storm tore chunks off the stadium's retractable roof and the damage can't be fixed in time to host the game, said Shea Guinn, president and general manager of Reliant Park.

"There is no way this stadium will host a game on Monday night," Guinn said Saturday. "There are parts of the roof that are completely gone."

i think you underestimating the power, intensive, havoc that is a hurricane. it doesn't matter whether it is category 1, 2, or 5. they all bring in an element of destruction unfathomable until it is done.

there are no buildings that are "hurricane proof".

let's just hope all affected areas recover and return to normalcy soon.

Yes, but they sure claimed it would stand 100MPH winds...
