It's too bad the media keeps trying to tell people what to think. On QR77 one of the afternoon guys was reading letters on their site, and one was well written telling QR that they had made their point that they didn't like it, and it should be dropped so that people can be free to form their own opinions. The QR guy went on to say that they were doing their responsibility by reporting the news- and should they have left it alone?
Yes. Just because some guy on the radio's opinion is that it looks childish doesn't mean that it is. Now that I understand some of the criteria like height, and the lack of pillars in the river (which as a rafter I am quite pleased about), I think the design is brilliant. I'm not sold on the colour though; as I fear that could look very 2010's like how the exterior of the Saddledome looks very 80's.
But if it's just the colour- meh.
