FOX6 News has learned the Green Bay Packers vs. Indianapolis Colts Pro Football Hall of Fame Game set for Sunday evening, August 7th has been cancelled due to turf concerns. Apparently there is an issue with the condition of the field at Tom Benson Hall of Fame Stadium after Saturday night’s Pro Football Hall of Fame induction ceremony. There were concerns over melted paint and an uneven playing surface. FOX6’s Tim Van Vooren is in Canton — and reported decision makers for the Packers and Colts were on the field Sunday, meeting about the field condition. David Baker, president of the Pro Football Hall of Fame was speaking with team leaders. Packers players cleared the field as workers used a variety of equipment to smooth the artificial surface. Rubber pellets used in the turf came loose and were scattered in several spots and needed to be removed. Neither team was on the field for warmups less than an hour before kickoff.

Since when is a pro football cancelled due to turf issues? Obama has played at being a president while enjoying the perks … golf, insanely expensive vacations at tax-payer expense. He has ignored the responsibilities of the job; no plans, no budgets, no alternatives … just finger pointing; making him a complete failure as a president
Bummer - I'd been looking forward to that.
A government strong enough to impose your standards is strong enough to ban them.
