RE: NIU, DeKalb Unveil Community Window Displays
Diehard,
Can you let us know if the cement facades are located under the overhangs? Are those the ones you are referring to? Thanks!

There is no cement facades under the overhands on the East side....its aluminum. If they are talking about the bottom part of the outer rim then why are we painting the cement?

This is a conundrum of magnanimous proportions, to say the least. I am not convinced they are aluminum. It could be another metal or perhaps an alloy. Or maybe it's a cement composition fabricated to look like metal. Can you check and let us know the true composition?
P.S. Maybe they are painting the cement because it needs painting. Can you call Athletics and ask them why they are painting the cement? Diehard, I, and others will sleep better tonight.

Come on man...I give you an easy set up for a rim job joke and you just keep on razzing me instead!
Oh well, I guess I'll see it this Sunday.

Before I do a rim job joke, I need all the details. What kind of rim is it, and what material it is made of? Is it naked material, or is it painted? Is it firm or pliable? Lastly, what color is it?
When you find out about the rim on Sunday, would you give us a report with HD close-up pictures?

Correction: The field-level cement walls under the stands were being painted white on Saturday afternoon.

Do you know to whom I can enter a grievance about this? The white will cause a disturbing glare when I watch the game. I do not like wearing sunglasses. I will try to get them to abort the paint process and instead paint the cement on the outside of the stadium.
