INDIANAPOLIS -- That, folks, is a very, VERY amateur attempt at photography on my part (Thanks, iPhone) ...

What it's meant to tell you is that the retractable roof here at Lucas Oil Stadium is and will remain closed throughout tonight's big game. This is the first home game this year the Colts will have played with it shut.

I was just told not to read too much into that. Right now, it's 54 degrees and pleasant, but there is a threat of rain tonight, and the Colts always shut the roof when that's the case. And the noise here doesn't come close to what it was in the RCA Dome, so don't expect it to be some sort of determining factor in this game.

This place is pretty nice. Not quite like JerryWorld down in Dallas, but definitely one of the NFL's best.
