I dont like where they have the webcam setup.  I can't see what they're doing.  I never know what they're doing.

No it wouldn't, why would you assume that?  The turf could easily bear the weight of motorcycles.

Would it be hard to ride on the turf, though?  I know that wouldn't impact much, but could be a liability thing?

Honest question.  I've never driven a motorcycle before.

I think it would be fine as long as the motorcycles weren't expecting to race each other or Humvees / Helicopters

I wouldn't think going 5 mph would be much of an issue, they don't seem to have too many issues with the SEZ now.

Yeah, carts, motorized camera booms, and emergency vehicles are on field turfs throughout the continent each day.

We will have a new sound system for next season.  Look for an official announcement soon on that.  JumboTron will be replaced as well for next season.  The money is already obtain for those improvements. 

We will not have to wait until 2014.

I overheard someone talking about a new video board on the south endzone concourse yesterday, which, as you all know, is where the power deals are brokered in Manhattan

protip:  Sony "Jumbotrons" are no longer made.

It would make sense to go ahead and upgrade both videoboards at the same time, and not just do one, like all technology we are already a generation behind on LED videoboards even though they're only 6 years old.

The South Endzone 'Tron doesn't seem so bad.

I just hate how they use half of it for adds and scoreboards. Maybe with the addition of the ribbon boards they will make the video portion bigger.
