Turf in Maryville

[strongx]

My biggest concern is head injuries/ concussions. I don't see a county stepping up to help pay for this to reduce muscle tears , broken bones, but if there is enough evidence to support the report that it can reduce head injuries ,,, especially if upwards by 40% reduction, I think they have to take a serious look at it.

Im sure you can find some stats to support the reduced risk of concussions. That would offset the statistical increased risk of excess cancers from the little rubber pellets. Danged if I do...

Yeah I did see where Duke and Penn State both found that there is Zero risk of cancer caused by  rubber pellets

Fake stuff has lots of advantages. I definitely like how it handles the weather. And it looks good. I know of 3 ACL tears the last 3 years on the turf. One was a contact hit, the other 2 were just cutting in practice. There may be others, I don't follow that closely. As for the head injuries, I think bouncing off that rubber has got to be bad. My biggest reason for fearing the turf is this: statistics will say whatever you need them to say.

 

JMO-All nfl teams would have turf to protect their multi-million $$ assets if it was really safer.

very tru
