Will the fence come down when football season starts? I hope so. I have a couple granddaughters who aspire to be cheerleaders someday. I would hate to think they will be cut off from the Bearcat and the Cheerleaders at football games. Especially the Cheerleaders who graciously talk to my granddaughters and pose for pictures.

Does anyone know what is the plan?

soccer hooligans!

Thank you. This was comic gold. And, by the way, I'm going to actually be a visiting hooligan this weekend. Head to toe in Portland Timbers green. It's going to feel so ******* weird rooting against the home team at Nippert.

Oh, and I plan to be hurling smoke bombs and plundering your daughters. Can't wait.

Sure does and it is supposedly the best turf money can buy, which we likely never could have gotten without FC Cincinnati. Should be a big win for the Cats.

I'm trying to remember, but did we get new end zones and mid-field logos with this new turf?

I thought I read somewhere that the end zones and logos will need to be painted on now - no more replacing turf to eliminate the seams.

Edit - yes I did read it somewhere -

The new playing surface, which FC Cincinnati is giving to UC, will be a single piece of turf. The end zones and soccer/football lines will be applied with temporary paint.

Something about the turf - most likely the shade of it - makes it look about as close to natural grass as you'll find. Most turfs we've had in the past were an off color or dull. Hopefully it plays and feels as well as it looks for both football and soccer.

The turf we had in the 2013 (and subsequently sold to a HS) was pretty sharp. The colors popped out. Hopefully that will be the case with this turf.

It is exciting to see the lads back at the pitch playing football, looking all spiffy in their new kits.

The red and black colors popped on the old turf because the colored areas were permanent, not painted on.

By the sixty-fifth minute your Timbers looked like they were ready to get on the plane and go home. Did they let you on?

The soccer lads want a friendly (kiss kiss) of US v Argentina but the lades object to our field turf. US Kickball Association's response was they wanted to lay grass over Nippert's Turf.

The lades found that unacceptable and are protesting.

The idea of grass over turf sound very dangerous, expensive and stupid. How do you anchor it? We all have seen that new sod is unstable.

Aren't the notches supposed to keep the sod in place?

Buenos notches.

These are the finest athletes in the universe. They flop on nothing but real grass.
