Read that a high school asst. coach in Plano died from the heat today. You have got to be smart and pay attention. It will sneak up on you. But you do need to acclimate yourself as best you can.

Ok, whatever. I've just heard that from 5 or 6 TCU alums, what do I know? Never been there myself.

Quite possible it's only heated...

I don't believe there is a/c in tcu's practice facility, unless it was added after the initial construction.
At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

No. We have early morning practices and have had six weeks or so conditioning in the afternoons, which should help. I don't think anything helps in two a days, but getting it over with and constant hydration.

That seems incredibly irresponsible. Let's hope no one gets hurt, or worse, killed by the heat.

On a side note, anybody need a patent attorney?

It is not unsafe if everyone is conditioned to the heat and knows when they need water/a break/etc.

If the guys have been out in it every day, they'll be OK. If they've been sitting in the 70 degree AC all day playing xbox, it IS dangerous.

I guess you're saying I shouldn't leave the house until October?
