as long as it isnt astroturf...seen to many good players blow their knees out and not play any more cause of that stuff...
We have Astroplay. Supposedly it is better than natural turf when it comes to injuries. Don't know about that but Mustang Bowl really looks good since we put it in. Lots of playoff games too. We are just the right size as most playoff crowds fill up at least one side and the seats are real close to the field. Not a bad seat in the house...

I'll take real grass over anything else, but hopefully this time next year I will be playing on astroturf.

Astroturf is like concerete when you fall down on it. You skin your elbows and kness when you slide or go down that why it is called "Turf Burns". You get green fuzzy stuff from the turf on your shoes. I know I used to play on astroturf. On the other hand Field Turf is better.

a lot of people get the same burns from artificial grass, and it doesnt hurt that bad, its just like falling on the ground in my opinion, it does cause more injuries i agree with that, and also you talk about that green stuff on your shoes, you also get those black rubber balls in your shoes and everywhere else

For Players that dont like to get dirty then play on Astro Turf, for real football players that like to get down and dirty play on Real Grass. Hmm would you consider using Football Mud cleeted shoes or regular molded cleets on a artificial grass area.
