Orange Endzones for Missouri

[Thick&ThinG8r]

Wikipedia:

His career effectively ended on October 10, 1993, in a game against the Philadelphia Eagles. While planting his feet to catch an underthrown deep ball from QB Jim Harbaugh, his cleats got stuck in the Astroturf at Veterans Stadium. The force of being pulled back to the ground was so severe that it completely severed the patella tendon in each of his knees. Doctors later found his kneecaps had been pushed all the way into his thighs. He spent several months in a wheelchair, with his legs encased in casts from thigh to ankle.



Start at 9:22.

I don't like watching injuries, so I didnt watch the video so I'm just going off my memory, but didn't the Phillies and Eagles share Veterans Stadium and the loose seams came from a lousy job of transitioning the field.

Well, it looks just like Boise State, especially with the font:

(Blue field surrounding it, minor detail)

Looks like our crowds lately, too.

Bingo. Phillies went to the '93 WS.

Multi use stadiums and their painted concrete ruined many careers.

The irony was, the fake shyt was supposed to extend them. The prevailing thinking at the time was that too many serious knee injuries resulted from cleats getting caught in grass.

You’ve been there in person to confirm?

Now I'm just totally confused.

Since it's daylights savings this weekend, somehow that makes it 2 days away? That's the best I can come up with. Or Nevada is just really drunk.

They also don’t have orange endzones...just plain grass with auburn painted

Can’t wait for the next it looks like (insert team that has endzones that look nothing like this)

Touche'. What I meant, and should have said, is:

The shades of orange and blue used on the University of Florida endzone look more like the shades of orange and blue used by Auburn as its school colors, and not like the shades of orange and blue that I have seen and associate with the school colors of the University of Florida.

Is that a detailed enough communication of the gist of the brief thought I had upon typing out my previous, very abbreviated post, or do you require even more information in order to fully comprehend the point I was, and am now, attempting to make?

Orange...reminds me of Charlie Pell days.

That the 80s for you youngsters.

Still not clear which is the predominate color.

 

[Ray Finkle]

I think they should put the white Gator helmet with the italicized F at midfield

The students think it's orange the alumni blue, they have a big screaming match about it every game.

I don’t have to tell you. It’s about to get very rough for you here. Nothing I say will help. Just make sure your doors are locked, batteries in the flashlights. Mags and clips where you can reach em, and extra grenades for the base runners.

Have you seen the field in person? Trust me that the colors look different on every single one of our computers.

Thanks for the good news, Threat. I haven't seen the Auburn orange version I saw in the photograph in person, and will happily take your word for it.

For all you get off my lawn types, there is a rumor we are going with a throwback uniform today

Article I saw said blue jerseys on white pants, but I suppose they didn’t specify if they were throwbacks or not.

That’s me. Saw the same one. Everyone is bringing up the tweet from a few weeks ago asking the fans which ones they liked.
