It certainly won't take anything away from the viewing of the game if there isn't going to be any crowd in the stadium to begin with. I have no issue with it. I hope they can mock up "Whistle Man" in the fake crowd. Will it be as good as a real crowd? Of course not. But, to me, it would make it marginally better viewing than a completely empty stadium. I simply see no negative as compared to the alternative.

Devils advocate... It is a 1/2 measure aimed at product quality but does not address the integrity of the game. Piping crowd noise into my living room does nothing for crowd noise present at a home field game.

If they were to pipe crowd noise into the game to simulate traditional football, would the noise volume be adjusted to match what that field normally sees?
