    Hopefully we can negotiate better with Gate City Bank or someone else if needed to get a smaller font for the sponsorship. The current one is a bit gaudy and just never did look proportionally right on the field. In the meantime, I'm sure that AstroTurf 2.0 will fix it and we can live with it for 2 more years.

    Apparently you've forgotten about Fargodome that appeared on previous versions of turf... I thought it was reasonable. 12 letters and two spaces take up a lot of space. GCB is going to use the same font they've used for 30 years...

    The pinwheel was a joke but so is the font size of GCB. Nothing wrong with the style of font but if we could trim it by 25% it would look significantly better.

    Watching the replay from the MSU game. Man, most of the field is bad, looking at the superimposed CGI Line of Scrimmage and First Down line. First the CGI line is behind the field line, then its in front, then its behind again. Not a good look.

    Exactly. I can't believe ESPN could screw up the superimposed line. How is that even possible?

    I would put more faith in the ESPN line rather than the field line.

    Mr Pep Band has a good picture in his sig, looks like GCB is the same size as the yard numbers. Seems appropriate and I don't think it looks out of place. Especially since they're paying for it.

    I dint know what the big deal is as I dont even notice it.

    When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    I’m supposed to go to GCB to pick up something (seriously it’s a surprise to me!)
    I’ll see if I can have a little chat with Steve or Kevin about the turf!!!
