Grass is going down!

I too took some pictures, but it is taking forever for my computer to upload them. There are about 50 total, but I will just try and get a few of them for you to see, because at this rate the new stadium will be built before they are all uploaded.

thanks for the photos, the field looks really good. cant wait to see it this saturday. thats funny they brought in those guys from portland. i remember reading in the papers up there about them the past couple games they had in PGE park. i shoulda gone to the games, but was always busy with college work. i hope the field is nice and even. i know when i have laid sod with my dad its always a pain in the ass to get the pieces flat with each other. this obviously is on a whole other scale and these guys have a lot of experience doing it. good thing this year we are not in a drought, im sure some people would be having pissy fits over how much water they are going to have to use to keep up the field. i hope it stays nice and green for 3-4 weeks.

alright, thats it, your getting rep for that awesome photo 🙂 now you just need to get that same picture on saturday with the stands loaded with people. that would be poster material.

im really getting excited for the coming weeks. i hope we get a massive crowd this weekend. someone on BS mentioned their father had spoken to kreis and hes hoping for a sell out. that might be much, but i hope we can get 20k. it is memorial day weekend after all, official start date of summer.

That could also mean that everyone is out of town. We should be able to get 20,000. I think the weekend means we will get more out of state fans coming to this game.

Is it just me or did it look like we were tripping all over the place? One of the callers on the post game show noted that Tiger seemed to be on the falling down quite a bit. Did anyone else notice it?

It seemed that we had quite a few players from both teams slipping out on the edges.

I can't believe I actually miss the turf monster.
