Should Fedex Field upgrade and get Synthetic Turf

[DubMoney]

Watching the game on Sunday i noticed how awful the field looked...Josh Wilson even got his foot stuck in a patch of grass that ultimately gave up a touchdown. I think it would make the field look a lot nicer, not to mention have the team playing faster if Danny Boy was to invest in synthetic turf...your thoughts??

It seems like Wilson has tripped in every game this year and two of them were on the turf. I kind of like the Grass field. Just wish we would put new grass down or something b/c youre right it does like terrible.

I've been saying this all season. Wilson is guaranteed to slip in coverage at least once a game. I kept saying they needed to change their spikes for somethinglonger. But Danny boy has to make his money as well. The field does always look piece milled together. Considering our type of offense you'd think they would put more emphasis on field maintenance.

Yes! in today's NFL i don't know why synthetic turf isn't mandatory for ALL stadiums.

I have the complete opposite opinion - I would ban artificial turf and mandate grass. I'm not even keen on domes.

My learned friend does also advocate the leather helmets and mud ball games of his youth, but he's not figured a way to sell that to you all yet.

Hail.

no to all artificial turf and domes

Absolutely not!! Football fields have real grass turf and no roofs.

Haha when I read that I saw 'no rooTs'... because, honestly, that's how our field looks!

I think it's time. Especially since it looks like we want a fast offense.

We used to play on Howard University's Football field. They had the Synthetic Turf and it felt good. It didn't look that bad either. It sucked though when you had all of those black pellets in your shoes. But I think it might be the best way to go. Remember the field after that Army/Navy game last year against the Patriots. It was crazy.

thats my biggest complaint...college teams play on our field...if i was player i wouldn't get to hype to play on a field that looks beat up...

When I watch a dvd of a Redskins game in good ol' RFK, I can't help but drool when I see that vivid green grass...or, um, should I say painted dirt! But at least it started out as grass in september.
Kinda get that line from Hostory of the World stuck in my head; "everything's so GREEN...

SIC

I remember after the last game at RFK, getting a patch of that "grass". It was like 10 sickly looking blades of grass with green paint all over. Awful looking up close, but looked good from a distance. Makes you wonder how much of those "grass stains" are grass, and how much are paint? ;-)
