NFL + ART

= some pretty cheesy art (usually)

but here's something that doesn't quite fit the bill. You may hate the Cowboys...they may be overrated...they may have the most annoying owner post-Al Davis...and they may have the most over-the-top-self-tribute to Jerry Jones on the planet (and it isn't that great looking, despite what the video says)...but you have to give them this, they can afford some fantastic art....and the right people to pick it

So, although it pains me to promote it, take a look at the Cowboy's promotional video tour of their world class art collection in the new stadium...http://stadium.dallascowboys.com/art/art_video.cfm

I have to give them some credit. I love the idea of filling the place with great art...I just wish it wasn't Dallas so that I'd actually be excited to visit it. I think it's pretty awesome that they decided to do this instead of the cliche ghosted images of past stars...unfortunately, I think, other than in art tours, it will be largely forgotten, under-appreciated or unnoticed to the mass crowds surging through the gates every sunday.
