They're grandfathered in. No new turf can be anything but green.

They are spun around and out of control


mizzou he/she on page 4 or 5 was arguing why rock could not be excavated with a front end loader




He remembered his wife's boyfriend had one, and thought he had a good point

His article dropped the Arrowhead Stadium guy's name...who didn't even show up in Columbia for this quagmire...but instead recommended some other guy, who finally surmised that Mizzou was too fricking lazy to dig out 2 feet of clay under the fields in question and thus get the drainage fixed.

so 30 years after this stupid article with some douchebag pointing at the horizon on a Missouri cattle farm, Mizzou is still learning that - oh shite - they forgot to dig out that two fricking feet of clay...







And in the stupid photo from a cattle farm - which has so much to do with baseball and football fields - they're standing on Fescue




SEC Cards pulled!

This is actually quite humorous this thread is still going. We will replace ours when Kentucky does.

You can't!

You poured concrete over the top of everything and then did you south endzone remodel over the top of that!

For the millionth time, we can’t grow grass. They’ve tried numerous times but it just doesn’t work out.

Kind of like Mizzou hasn’t won a comference title since 1969, since it does’t work you should shut down the program correct? I mean, why play football if you can’t win the conference?
