November 29, 200718 yr Also, the radio stations up here are saying that the weather Sunday night will be very similar to the weather from Monday night. http://news.enquirer.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/AB/20071129/SPT02/711290340/
November 29, 200718 yr The league loves to tell players what they can and cannot do, I wish the same would apply to owners having to provide a suitable field.
November 29, 200718 yr I think that is a bad move on the part of the Steelers. My guess is on a dry field they would have beat the Fins by more than 3.
November 29, 200718 yr There was a story I read somewhere this morning that mentioned the Dolphins/Steelers game ended up being one of the highest rated Monday night games for ESPN this year. There was a point in the game when it hit 11 million viewers. Just insane. I know Carson is healthy and everything, but playing on those conditions would bother me a great deal.
November 29, 200718 yr http://www.weather.com/weather/tenday/USPA1290?from=search_10day That to me doesn't seem to predict it being as bad, but being that its a few days away anything could happen.
November 29, 200718 yr A few dry days leading up to it will certainly help, but even if it's dry Sunday, I doubt the field will be in good enough shape to lead to the track meet the Bengals would like.
November 30, 200718 yr I think they may have considered making some changes if they had the time but with a short week and poor weather what options did they really have? Their field is always a mess towards the end of the season, you just can't play that many games up north on the real stuff without damage. I think we'll see some field turf installed for next season.
