They should definitely allow guns in NFL stadiums

    I imagine that Six Flags Lakeview will be the same way tonight.

    Not getting into a "media bad!" thing here, but why aren't any of these really detailed reports coming out of, say, Texas rather than New York?

    Still less violent than a European soccer match

    I've taken my daughter (who recently turned 10) to a Jets home game each of the past 3 years and am just revolted at the level of profanity and drunkenness in the parking lots/concourses. We've had great tickets through work (Coach's club/luxury box), but I wouldn't take her to a game if we had to sit among the drunks. The level of DUIs must be over 50 percent.

    Just think about what they'll be yelling at her in a few years.

    I know someone who played on an opposing AFC east team in the 1980s and played the Jets at Shea in the early part of the decade. He said his first game there, he came out of the tunnel to warm up and a bowie knife came flying out of the stands and stuck in the ground a few feet from him.

    Some of the stories you guys are telling, I think, represent a huge reason that hipsters and millennials have gravitated away from the NFL and towards EPL soccer instead.

    Which is ironic, since English soccer stadiums 25 years ago resembled Rikers Island.

    I'm confused. Was shooter being a Cowboy or a Patriot?
