Colts' New Turf

Recommended Posts

I don't know if all FieldTurf can be painted, or if the graphics and lines must be sewn in. I was reffing at a game Saturday on FieldTurf, and the lines and numbers are very light and hard to read.

According to their website, the Superdome has "Momentum" turf by Sportexe.

The best turf shot from last week's game is of the tee retriever...

Whatever it is, it sure beats the old stuff, which I suspect came from the same lot as the turf at the old Veteran's Stadium in Philly (i.e. green cement).

These figures are updated from the 2005 NFL Record & Fact Book. However, I believe the Cardinals are configuring Sun Devil Stadium for a capacity of 63,000 this season; partly to match the normal (non-expanded) capacity of the new Cardinals Stadium, and also partly to make it easier to sell-out.

Doesn't Invesco have the same DD GrassMaster stuff as Pittsburgh has? (DD Grassmaster sounds like a rap group.)

Also: This message comes up when you access www.heinzfield.com (give this guy points for ingenuity anyway):

This domain name is now available for a trade.

I currently own:

WWW.HEINZFIELD.COM

and

WWW.HEINZFIELD.NET

and

WWW.HEINZFIELD.ORG

I wish to trade ALL THREE names for 4 Steelers Season Tickets and Stadium seat licenses, no matter where the seats are located. If interested, email to:
