Around SBN: Lakers Should Trade Andrew Bynum So He Doesn't Go To Waste

Player reactions after walk through via twitter

Chris Kluwe - "Serious time - All respect to the people that cleared the field and got it ready, you did an amazing job. That being said, it's unplayable." "The field is as hard as concrete an hour and a half after they took the tarp off, and anyone that hits their head is getting a concussion."

Erin Henderson - "The field looks pretty good. Rock hard but I guess thats 2 b expected. They still workin on it tho so we'll have 2 wait n c"

Visanthe Shaincoe - "Only thing.. there are random patches of hard and slippery field" "Ground keepers say they are heating the field for 30 hours straight.. hopefully it'll be good for a good game. Can't wait" "I just hope that the patches of hard slippery turf is gone by tom night so we can battle"

So, there you have it. Kinda mixed reactions depending on who is talking about. While two say's the field is hard, another say's patches. So, like all of them are saying, will have to wait and see.

idea

Get a flamethrower on the field and let it rip before the game.

not a bad idea

or just let AP run around for a little bit, he’ll burn things up.

in the future there will be no war...there will only be rollerball.

Kickers should be seen not heard.

It looks like my worst fears have come true the vikings have become a soft team inside their cozy baggy dome.

Back in 1969 when as a 9 year old i fell in love with the MINNESOTA VIKINGS they were a tough hard nosed pro football team that used the cold to their advantage now sadly they cry when its cold outside how times have changed.

Only one team didn't use heaters on the sidelines in the 1970's.

Bud Grant’s Vikings. Can you imagine Chris Klue complaining to old stone face?

IT IS TIME TO DO WHAT IT TAKES TO DRAFT A FRANCHISE QUARTERBACK.
No more old guys. No more excuses. No more passing up our own great drafted quarterback.
