I heard they used the wrong type of paint on the field which made it too slippery to be safe for the players. Still pretty bush.

No excuse. People paid to do the job should do it earlier so they'd have time to fix it. Really a black eye for Canton and the Hall of Fame. A shame. I petted Sam Huff's bust when I visited the HOF.

Too in tacky in spots along with the slippery sections is what ESPN was saying last night. Pull a hammy in one spot, blow out a knee in another. More fun from the gang who brought you under-inflated footballs.

Steelers lost a kicker last year because of the playing surface... ...and he was vocal about player safety (field conditions) for this season.

Must have reached a few ears.

The old Ironton Tanks stadium still stands doesn't it?

I read today the field crew tried to fix the tackiness with paint thinner, which made the patches slick. Why do I think NFL is starting to head the way of Big Time Rasslin'?

Yes to Ironton Tanks Stadium.
