They installed the wrong sand. Trying to come up with a short term fix for sunday. Gonna rip the entire thing out before the season.

Yeah, at first I thought they were the sprinklers, but they're too close together to be that. Who cares at this point, dig the whole thing up and start all over again.

I give them props for pulling it up and making it happen. Would have been easy to just water it and hope for the best. This shows me they really do care and want the playing surface to be right.

They HAVE to fix it, they cant as you say "water it and hope for the best" They can get in trouble with the NFL, just like the Redskins almost did a few years ago when players were blowing out their knees left and right cuz of the field

The point is you are giving them credit for something they HAVE to do, there was no other option they couldnt just water it and hope for the best

Pretty sure you don't know for a fact the nfl mandated they pull up the field and re-lay sod. They made the choice to do it in the best interest of player safety. If the nfl was forcing them to do it, we would have heard reports of them ordering the field changes.
