Does anyone else see a problem with us practicing on 100% field turf yet we play on real grass in the games? Shouldn't we be practicing on the same surface as we play on? I mean it's common sense if you ask me but as we all know, I'm just a stoner who doesn't know any better.

So here is the thing, if we practice on 100% field turf and if the rumors are true about the grass/field turf combo being installed then we are right back where we started...........SOOOOOOOOO then if we ARE getting a new field then in my opinion it should be the EXACT surface of what we practice on correct?

Speaking of which: JohnnyKillz – when do I get the v10 Mil I fronted you a few days back?
Last I looked you're sitting on a vBillion or so. You're costing me a significant amount of vInterest.

You understand, don't you, that you also owe me v5% interest a day plus the original v10 Mi? I'll be sending my vGuy to "talk" with you soon ...

Sleeping with the vFishes ain't all it's cracked up to be.

If we are getting a turf field, and i don't know much (anything) about this stuff, but we should be able to practice in the stadium... I imagine the big hang up was ruining the grass before gameday and with turf that shouldn't be a problem.

According to Eric Hansen, new drainage system is being installed, and field turf should be right after. Most summer events that require the field have been moved. TIFWIW and no link

Did you talk to Hansen on the phone or did he have one of his live chats today?

not asking you to confirm man, I believe you. I just know that he has those chats on Thursdays during the season and figured that would be the most logical place you saw it considering his twitter feed had no mention. Thanks for sharing.

I hope it like the stuff they have at Lambeau, if it is indeed true.

I take it this is happening after the spring game?

I was told by someone the other day that works in the grounds and maintenance department that there was no turf in the plans. Hope they were wrong.

I saw a mop and a mop bucket. All this looks like is that they cleaned out the janitors office. Plus, they are gonna need A LOT more turf than that to cover the field. I'm not buying into it. That could be the spare turf left from the practice field.
