I was told of this by the Finance / Accountant head at my kids school (private) who oversaw the installation of a new field last summer.

That's when he talked about the MRSA killing agents. It's called Biocide.

Trust me, MRSA is BAD news.

Promoting his brand looks like him trying to make himself look good, and seeking success looks like him just wanting to raise profits, and community service looks like him just wanting attention.

They swallow them when they kick up into your mouth, but a bigger concern is when the pellets break down, which they do, into fine particles. Dust size

Then the players should just wear their Covid masks -- kill two birds with one stone.

Giving into FIFA, which I personally have ZERO interest in...
Forget those losers, stop ****in' around with a good field to make $ on GARBAGE, just to make $.
That's what this is about, I said it earlier...


GREED!

The players, their knees and their ankles disagree with you. pp It is a “good field” because it looks nice in person and on TV?
