Ground Broken on Everbank Field Scoreboard

[Kerry]

So how soon should we expect a Super Bowl victory because everyone knows the key to victory is the size of the video board.  Are we still getting swimming pools as well?

^^^Very original comment. Yeah, the pools are gonna be built.

You fellas should just PM each other this bickering back and forth, so we don't have to think there has been some content added to the discussion when we see there have been new posts.

PJ! don't you know better than to get between two hens when they're fighting? You could lose a hand!

Unfortunate that the new boards will not be operational for the USMNT match here in June against Nigeria. Would have been a great showcase.

Word. I don't even check threads anymore when I see the updates coming from certain names. Of course, when I see PeeJayEss and Captain Zissou I always check; thanks for throwing off my system, guys.

New Dimension in Scoreboard Watching
Daktronics Plays Outsize Role as Giant Scoreboards Proliferate

BROOKINGS, S.D. — The seemingly endless prairie that blankets this part of the United States would seem to be an unlikely place for one of the largest makers of sports video displays, Daktronics. After all, the nearest big-league ballpark is a four-hour drive from this town, which has barely enough residents to fill any of the arenas and stadiums where the high-tech screens are fixtures.

Yet in the nearly half-century since its founding, the company has become a global giant in sports entertainment, and though the quiet, tree-lined streets may not show it, business is good.
