Everybody groans and moans about why the Steelers won't change to turf, and this is the exact reason. The injuries are more significant because the turf doesn't give at all. They have put it up to a vote many times and the answer is always no. The reason the field sometimes gets in the mess it does, is because Pitt uses it for their games, and then the high school playoffs are held there. Throw in rain and you have a complete mess. But usually the field is fine.

Turf is awsome and looks great. But don't you love watching those REAL muddy football games where the field is just a HUGE mudpitt, and the players look like boys playing in an old fashion football brawl?
