The turf at Rentschler Field is a joke and experts are being called in to fix the problem. The last time I saw divots like that I was playing a round of golf. There is no excuse. Would Fenway Park ever get that bad. Yankee Stadium? And they play on those fields 81 times. Someone did not do their job. I am just glad that someone wasn't me.


When we moved into our house four years ago our lawn was immaculate. Given my "brown thumb" my father in law put the over/under for me ruining the lawn at one year. For the record, it didn't get brown and filled with fungus for a year and a half.


Yes, I understand maintaining healthy grass is a hard job. But experts can do it. Let's hope the problem is fixed quickly. Measures are being taken this week that should make things better for the UConn/Temple game Saturday.


I predict another UConn blowout: Huskies 41-Owls 7. Last week I predicted 38-10. 38-0 was the final. Yes, even I get something right once in a while. Just don't trust me with your lawn.
