KSJets Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 I wouldn't be surprised if they had half of the field as sand and the other half as FieldTurf to try to gain an advantage somehow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garb Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 The Patriots are scheduled to re-sod the middle of the field after the scheduled filiming of "Game On" with that Rock actor (I use the term actor loosely here) is done. Should be complete prior to the next home game. This field turf stuff would be installed AFTER this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alk Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 I wouldn't be surprised if they had half of the field as sand and the other half as FieldTurf to try to gain an advantage somehow Yeah and then they'll put the field on casters and when the teams switch ends, they'll just flip the field around. Yeah yeah, that's the ticket!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bush league teams don't have three super bowl trophies sitting in their trophy case. They also don't have their very own state of the art stadium.

They're talking about field turf. Not real grass, more like shag carpet baby. All he has to worry about is rugburns which can be a real bitch I might add.

Garb Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Yes, the school administrators down in Miami must be squeaky clean. I see that there was only one suspension for that brawl. Excellent message for those impressionable 18-21 year old criminals. Just for those of you who do not live in the Boston area, here's the real scoop on the Pats field. It will be re-soded on 10/24 - when they wrap filiming of that silly disney movie. After the season is over, they will be installing "field turf." I bit more complicated than usual because there are heating pipes below the sod that exists on the Gillette field. They must remove the piping before installation. Also, Dan Koppen was just given a new contract worth 20 million. Ensuring that we have a good center for years to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetCane Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 The MAJOR difference is that I have already gone on record (see the thread in the lounge) about what a disgrace Scapecoker is for allowing his team to get into on-field incidents. OTOH, the snooty new englanders have been in denial about what a thief their HC is, what a jerk the owner is, and they come up with all sorts of rationalizations and justifications for their team being the equivalent of a second-rate slut. ______________________________ Where is the outrage over this? HANOVER, N.H. -- Florida International and Miami didn't have the only brawl in college football on Saturday. Hanover police and athletic directors from Holy Cross of the Patriot League and Dartmouth of the Ivy League are investigating a fight between the two teams after the Crusaders came back to beat the Big Green 24-21 in overtime. According to police, Holy Cross players celebrated on the Dartmouth "D" painted at midfield after winning, and fights broke out during post-game handshakes. Witnesses said some players were thrown to the ground and kicked. "Right now the tape we have shows only the end of the melee," Hanover police chief Nick Giaccone told the Valley News of West Lebanon, N.H. "But we are still searching for other film sources out in the public." "We'd separate one group, and then it would start up again with another group," Giaccone told the newspaper of his officers' attempts to break up the melee. "We'd get to that place and it would keep rolling and a third fight would break out before it finally stopped." "The two ADs absolutely agreed that it was upsetting, disappointing and unacceptable the way both teams interacted at the end of the game," Dartmouth athletic director Josie Harper told the Valley News. "And the coaches feel that way, too. " The AP contributed to this report. Waddya know? Other teams have fought, too! And they also take responsibility for it. That is the right, and classy thing to do. That's the difference between being classless in foxboro, and having class elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garb Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 It's all the hc's fault! The school's reputation was immaculate during Davis and Erricson's tenure! Heads would be rolling!

Garb Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Not to go off the class debate - but I remember attending a Notre Dame/BC game. What a nervous nellie Holtz was! He'd constantly squat and pick at the "fake grass" like a man with some compulsive disorder. Yes, Faba! I have been to my fair share of BC games at Chestnut Hill.

Maybe the Red Sawx can rent out Fenway to Vivid Video this May and June. Sure, all the action on the field may cause playing conditions to suffer, but who the F*** cares, its MONEY!!!!

An owner that paid for a new stadium with his own cash? Frickin' tight wad! And yes, a few hours of filming is the cause of the bad field conditions. The soccer team has nothing to do with it at all.

The Patriots just extended Koppen last week. Why are you so certain that they won't extend more of their current players? What you should be concerned with is the fact we are going to run away with the AFC East while sitting on $12 million. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
