Attended the Cardinal game and was surprised at how lousy the field looked .... the endzone areas looked the worst!

What looked lousier? The field or the team? :)

The team actually was ok, as they got the "W"......... the field, not so much!

All the touchdowns we gave up this year couldn't have helped the situation.  Even if we won the Cardinals game.

In 2017 that turf was all rosey and nice.  Now maybe they need to remove the 2018 stink the team left so it won't carry over to next season and beyond.

Good idea.
