    Read somewhere that 49ers get to practice in the Superdome, we practice outside on a baseball field

    Is that true? I couldn't find a link, just hearsay. If it is true, how does that benefit and/or hinder us & them, and why does one team get to practice in the dome, and the other not?

    I heard that on the radio this afternoon when I went out for lunch. If true, then it could be like Rocky vs. Ivan Drago. Drago training in the high-tech gym and Rocky training in that barn in Russia. Man, I am getting pumped for Sunday. :happyanim

    It wasn't the Superdome, it was the Saints training facility, which is indoors...

    Still, I hope this is a one day on, one day off type of thing. No point in training outside in the rain, when you are instead going to be in a couped up dome, where the noise will be CRAZY louder.

    seems odd the saints would want the 9ers in their facility over an AFC team...

    Thanks for the clarification on that. I'm still curious why one team is getting the favorable treatment to be allowed in the Saints training facility. Doesn't make sense to me.

    The Ravens are training at Tulane University. I doubt they're on the baseball field.

    Their facility is under construction, so they are in fact on the baseball field.

    Apparently Ed has never seen a Rocky movie. The guy with the most rustic training facility always wins!
