It's unfortunate to see more and more NFL OUTDOOR teams switching from grass to the flubber stuff. It's much better than the old turf that ruined a few RB's careers (aka Curt Warner), but football is supposed to be played on GRASS...bottom line. Some recent cities that have switched: Baltimore, Cinn (which I can kind of understand from the weather there), NYG/NYJ (also makes a bit of sense given that 2 teams play there), and others. When you see a game like the Pitt game and you see all the mud on "The Bus", it makes you realize that getting muddy is part of the game.
