I'm sure that the league will come around to installing grass soon before there are more injuries. Because the players health is the NFL's main focus.

You doubt the leagues commitment to player safety?!?!

Yeah, me too.

Just an FYI...

Of the leagues 22 soccer specific stadiums, 18 play on grass, 3 play on a hybrid, 1 plays on Field Turf.

This would mainly affects teams using NFL stadiums.

It was a thing of beauty. Did you notice how long the celebration went on after it? I guess the superstars get a little leniency.

I doubt that we could afford him. But I wouldn't mind seeing him kick for us. Can you imagine the amount of soccer players who would then immediately become Saints fans? We'd double our fan base.

Yep.

Messi is a LEGEND. On the biggest of stages (World Cup, title matches) & throughout his career, he's been THE guy. Ice water in his veins.

My son still thinks C Ronoldo is better. I say naw ...
