Yes, Kraft is cheap. He only spent $450 million of his own money to build the stadium. But he's cheap.

No, you're just dumb.

Right, I don't see how anybody wins in the scenario in which the field sucks as much as they do. I guess I don't buy the whole "BB likes the field this way" crap (you hear on WEEI for instance) b/c it's completely ridicolous - it hurts every team involved and really puts the players at danger. It's only a matter of time before someone ruptures something on that field, it's a beach out there.

I agree. The field sucks... much too dry. Damnit can't we get some mud in there? We need us some mud. I love me a muddy game.

A little water definately wouldn't hurt. Someone needs to tell the groundskeeper that green spraypaint doesn't make grass grow.

I don't want to see the field replaced until after the Colts game. 'Would love to be in the press room observing Napolian's numerous hissy fits.

Nor does it make it muddy. Break out the friggin' hose. Douse that mother down. Especially for the Dolts game, I'm with you Seymor93.

Seriously, if BB walked into Kraft's office tomorrow and said, "The field stinks, it needs to be replaced," the next home game it would look like a putting green.

The field is a mess because the Pats feel it gives them a competitive advantage.

I think that we will find that the field will be different come the next home game. They have almost a month before they have to play the Colts here at home.

The field is a mess ever since the grass went missing after Mick and Keith performed at Gillette. The "Stones" can always get what they want.

So if the middle of the field is destroyed it is probably due to that sport where the ball is re-spotted in the middle of the field play after play after play.

(you would do better to ***** about the concerts)..soccer does not tear up turf. (and except for world cup I dont even like soccer)
Well, yes, for one team....unless there's 5½ players to team nowadays....or unless they're playing against themselves....but hey, what do I know?
