Practice Field Covered

Postby PonyKai » Mon Aug 20, 2007 10:53 pm

Well here's a new thread so up to 2...3? Oh I can't tell we're all so damn apathetic.

Anyways, practice field is covered all the way around with blue tarp. This a new development? Don't remember it from last August but before that have no idea. We pretending to give a darn now or has that always been there?

It's new. There has been a "wind screen" at times in the past, but this is the first time for the blue tarp.

PB is trying to ape Boise State's blue turf. :roll:

They ought to have inspirational messages plastered all over that. Or at least quips of people trashing our team and school...try to drive them into an angry frenzy.

Yep...I wouldn't doubt if this is a early measure to prepare for Dean.

Sorry I guess I stated wrong/ The practice field fencing is covered on all sides with opaque blue tarp. Seems like it's to keep people from looking in on practice. Nothing's covering the field guess I just made it confusing.

I think they're spending considerable time working on the PAT Swinging Gate formation.... don't want anyone to know... it's a surprise. :wink:

I hadn't noticed this until the other day. Frankly, I don't get it. Just go inside Ford if you want to be covert.

I am surprised they are not trying to sell any ad space on the side along Mockingbird.. our budget needs money any way they can get it, especially to pay for the advertising expenses..

Maybe the neighbors complained about how ugly the swinging gate play is.

If they pull out the swinging gate all ponyfans.com posters need to immediately give up the standing "O".

Ford is much hotter than the practice field (Pettison?).
