HOF Game

[Rutnstrut]

Its an entirely new field surface installed in the last week. Its from the Superdome. The entire HoF grounds have undergone renovations, including the Stadium, which is now called Tom Benson Field or something like that. They wanted new turf in the new facility because the Steelers were mad about the field conditions last year.

So within a week or two of getting the new turf, they had the HoF ceremony, a concert and now a football game. I bet its the first time the people in Canton painted this field for a game.

I predict that Goodell will suspend the HoF and take over operations.

I know it's all new. But that in itself is an operational fuck up. You don't wait until go time to make sure everything is good to go.

I think Roger should suspend himself.

I think Roger should suspend himself.

I'm good with that.

[Harlan Huckleby]

It looks like its not getting played. Concerns about the field.

Considering that Hundley can't play, I'd say this is an act of divine mercy.

The NFL could fuck up a wet dream.

It's a fubar, but basically, I'm glad it happened.

Yes, it should count as a pre-season game.

You have to forgive these folks in the Canton/Akron/Cleveland area. They haven't played real football there in a long time.

Randy Moss: "Somebody needs to lose their job over this" Yeah, I guess.

At least I won't have to miss swimming and gymnastics tonight hahahahahaha.

Olympic swimming is far more entertaining than preseason football.

Actually watching US-Canada men's volleyball. Canada leading, really intense.

Don't tell that to Canton McKinley or Columbus.

[Carolina_Packer]

a stupid exhibition game that needs to be eliminated. kill half the preseason and the pro-bowl while you're at it.

Nostradamus, I presume?

[Joemailman]

This is what happens when Packerrats doesn't have an official Game Day Thread. No game.

^ We let the Captain, and America, down big time.

In other words, additional pressure makes you stupid.

ha!

can only assume whoever they (the nfl or hof) got to paint the field used oil-based paint which melted the rubber pellets together. love it!. so glad this happened so the Packers weren't subjected to the added injury risk.

edit: just saw the post above this one. so they heated it and then added paint thinner. lmao! what a cluster! lol
