So are they building a new one ?

I can't seem to find the info in the article. Am i missing it ? Anyway..too bad to tear down such an epic stadium...so many awesome football(soccer) players that have been there.

Then and Now

I don't think that the Then and Now section is necessary. The history of the stadium cannot be simply split into two distinct sections. What about the pre-grass AstroTurf replacement with the Giants and (NY-free) Jets logos on the 50 Yard lines? Also, there needs to be specific dates for the "then" and "now" periods. I am giving it a week. If there aren't any comments or major cleanup to the section, I'm deleting it. Milchama 15:44, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

brendan byrne arena

"which also hosts the Meadowlands Racetrack and the Izod Center (known as the Continental Airlines Arena until October 2007)"

Sentence construction makes it sound like it was Continental Airlines Arena from inception to October 2007.

Since article's subject is "Giants Stadium," suggest recasting sentence as "which also hosts the Meadowlands Racetrack and the Izod Center (see its article for predecessor names)."

Otherwise, Brendan Byrne Arena merits mention as the arena's inception name (or shortly post-inception name). I believe it carried that name much longer than Continental Airlines Arena. To many people of a "certain age" (like moi) it will always be Brendan Byrne Arena...not for admiration for Mr. Byrne, but irritation over current nom du jour practice of naming facilities. 207.237.91.177 (talk) 19:45, 27 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

-Removed reference in info box to the New York Faggots playing out of the stadium until 2010. Everybody knows the Faggots moved away years ago. :) 96.50.45.6 (talk) 06:49, 12 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
