Not since 1983 it looks like. It's been a while. Now they are saying the dome won't be ready for tomorrow either.

Cant they find an alternate site and just go there and play the game? I know this wouldnt be ideal...but its late in the season...when will they squeeze in at another time? Hell...get on a friggin'plane and head to the Alamo Dome!

that sounds like something they should do to replace the preseason games. I'd be more likely to watch the preseason then
