Greener Practice Field

Postby Bergermeister » Mon Jan 24, 2011 3:16 pm

Passed by the practice field the other day and an NFL crew was painting our practice field green - I always thought it was green enough - but they put the deluxe Earl Scheib paint job on it. Packers there? Can't remember if we're NFC or AFC.

My kids were asking about the practice field on Saturday when we were walking to the bball game. Didn't see them painting it, but it did seem to be unusually green. I would think they would be using the Ford field.

Are they going to be practicing all next week there? These temps are like the tropics for them.

I drove by on Friday, and there were a few NFL crew folks out there in Super Bowl jackets putting up the bright yellow goalposts.
And, yes, I also noticed how GREEN that field was. Didn't know it was because they painted it, though. I thought they had planted some winter rye or something.

Too bad ES couldn't be practicing at SMU. Where is Pitt practicing? I find it weird that neither would be practicing at the Cowboys facility. Are the Cowboys going to get a new IPF?

AFC (Steelers) at TCU, NFC (Packers) at SMU.

TCU indoor facility...ACS is a mess right now.
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

And Packers will be at HPHS if they need an IPF.
