You Call That Thing A Pitch?
du Nord, April 13, 2005
I watched New England whup-up on Columbus last Saturday night, in the home opener for the Revs. NE looks like they have the strong offense that I thought they were going to show. The draw back was that nasty field they played on. The stadium is a palace, and the football team they share the place with would never even step onto that mess. Hell the football lines from months ago were still showing. Almost all the grass was dead, and every time someone went in for a tackle a dust and sand cloud came flying up. What a joke.This morning I went to the Rev's web site and found their "Contact Us" section.I sent them this email:Hi RevsBeing from Minneapolis, I am not a fan of your team, but rather all of MLS.I watched your team play last Saturday on Fox Soccer Channel and was horrified by the look of the pitch.Shame on you!You should be embarrassed to have that dead cow-pasture looking thing shown on TV. I know winter is just ending, but there is no way you should have a field looking that bad for the season opener.
