Modern stadiums employ a combination of technologies to achieve this dual functionality: Under-Soil Heating Systems: These systems circulate warm water or air through pipes beneath the turf, maintaining optimal root-zone temperatures to encourage grass growth and prevent snow accumulation. For instance, REHAU’s turf conditioning systems keep natural grass roots at optimal temperatures to extend the growing season. LED Grow Lighting: Advanced LED grow lights provide the necessary light spectrum for photosynthesis, promoting healthy grass growth even in low-light conditions. Companies like SGL offer energy-efficient LED grow lighting units that allow grounds staff to adjust light and heat radiation according to the grass’s needs. 🏟️ Real-World Applications Allianz Field (MLS) (Minnesota): Utilizes a combination of underground heating and grow lights to keep its playing surface warm, growing, and free of snow for most of the year. Lower.com Field (Ohio): Employs similar technologies to ensure a playable surface during winter conditions.

There was a guy from the late 70s to mid 80s. Can’t remember his name.

The suspensions are a blessing in disguise in terms of being able to roster the mid round draftees

The Dutchman’s record is the most underrated in all of sports. 554 yards in 1951

I’m surprised NE could not shop him for more, and more surprised the Giants or other NFC qb needy team did not join the bidding. Everyone knows the week 17 vanilla D game meant nothing. But when your arm is that strong, you can get away with so much more than your average developmental qb, so your ceiling is way harder. Milton’s arm is so strong he doesn’t have to let it go until he sees them wide open. That is rare. I see NE wanting to part ways, so Maye and the whole team knows who is the guy. I really thought they could get a fourth, maybe a third.

Why have the Seahawks been able to wear 12 different uniforms a season the last 25 years.

This is an Ossweiller trade. But I don’t think there is even a way with the dead cap rules to trade away the cost anymore like in the old days.

Both Aiyuk and Trent held the niners front office hostage last year and stole the bag from every one of their teammates. Sure there is no love lost in the Locker room. Makes me even more grateful for what Benford, Shakir, Bernard, Rousseau and Allen have done the last few months.

I really thought someone would give Cooper the bag and that he’d be making a lot more than Diggs coming off the ACL. His production for the Bills was limited but important, and enough to force defenses to cover the boundaries. We do not beat the chiefs in the regular season without Cooper. Maybe he’s decided to call it a career unless someone makes an offer he can’t refuse. Problem is no one has any money at this stage. I’m sure he’s been offered at least 15 given what an injured Diggs got.

Bills signed three solid but non-max contract starters to second contracts. That is not seen that often these days, though I’m not sure how it compares overall to the strategy of letting solid players go and harvesting compensatory picks.

Makes me wonder what cooper has turned down thus far

Wonder if he could have had another elite year or three if they did not have to run on that concrete like all the artificial surfaces were in the 70s. My knees hurt just watching the tape.

This Week in Pro Football by NFL films which ran from about 1967 to 1975 and which recently dropped for free on YouTube was quite a production, complete with Sam Spence orchestra backing. The entire series seems to have been preserved.

Maybe we should sign this Hendrison guy that beat him

His best bet for having any kind of cash out in 2026 is to sign asap for whatever is offered, work his way into the lineup and put up 800 yards. Don’t know if his knee will allow that but he’s always been a workout warrior.
