Looks like Golden has a good chance to win his lawsuit

Advertisement
OP is Folden. Looks like Folden is gonna win his lawsuit based on some 3rd grade-level inadmissible speculation written by Folden himself? That’s not how lawsuits work, fckface.

Lmao. Here's an article about the field in San Francisco for the NCAA Championship in 2017. There is another one for last year's Super Bowl.

**** the 49ers.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Maybe the NFL will be right.


Maybe the Panthers and Broncos will take the field at Levi's Stadium and all will be well. The players will plant, they will cut. They will dig their feet into the fresh turf without the slightest bit of concern that something will go wrong.


But believing what the NFL says is like trusting a groundhog to predict the length of the seasons.

The field at Levi's Stadium, site of Sunday's Super Bowl 50, is a joke.

It has been a joke since the state-of-the-art complex opened in July 2014.

Before the 49ers played a single game in the 68,500-capacity stadium, the turf had to be replaced — twice in the span of just two weeks. What was expected to be the NFL's nicest field was a fairway at a municipal golf course following a hailstorm.

There is no reason why the field should be in poor shape. This is not a decade-old stadium built in a harsh-weather climate. Santa Clara offers pristine grass-growing conditions. And, Levi's Stadium was the site of a peach farm. Yet the $1.3 billion stadium has a field with the composition of a waterbed.

Remember what happened to Ravens picker Justin Tucker in Week 6?

The only thing worse than the field's condition is the cover-up. And no, we aren't talking about a tarp.

"We aren't concerned with the issues of the past," said Ed Mangan, the NFL's field director and the man responsible for overseeing the project leading up to Super Bowl 50. "There have been no hitches thus far."

The thing is, we know that to be untrue. Just a week before the game, a photo was taken showing that the field crew accidentally painted both end zones in Broncos colors. When asked about the snafu, Mangan insinuated it never happened.

"No. We're fine," Mangan said on Tuesday, brushing off attempts to get him to admit his crew screwed up.

"We have a Panthers end zone right here and a Broncos one down on the other side. Just as we planned."

But Mangan's terse comments make perfect sense because that's what the 49ers organization did while its field was falling apart at the seams.

"And our field guys are phenomenal," then-coach Jim Tomsula said before the start to the season, via the San Jose Mercury News. "The confidence in them is tremendous."

Why is the field so bad yet those who work with it so positive that it isn't?

The answer is simple. During construction, an error was made when laying down the field's support base of sand and gravel. But even after the grounds crew dug up the foundation and redid it, the issues remain. Why? In short, the stadium is overused. It has been the site for WrestleMania, an outdoor hockey game, a soccer match between FC Barcelona and Manchester United, countless concerts, and of course, 49ers home games.


Why the NFL and the 49ers organization refuse to admit fault is also simple. There is no accountability in professional football. Talk is cheap, and both the NFL and the 49ers invested way too much money in trying to make the Levi's Stadium field serviceable.

So maybe the NFL will be right.

But if history is any indication, it won't be.

AMEN!!!

It's like they're those emo kids that avoid everyone else and think that's the cool thing to do because they're enlightened and everyone else is dumb.

All of this. Al Golden is a POS. Just go away Al.
 
I gotta add, I do think the fields should be the absolute best at the professional level. In college, they should be close. Saying dangerous though is up to interpretation. Those of you who played any sport on a field in high school or before, every field was different. Some were absolute **** shows, some wet as **** or hard as concrete. Level or with rollers in it. Injuries happen on pristine fields and turf as well. I doubt looking at our fields it was a mess, but one small depression or missing sod, that's probably an issue at the NFL level.

I know I've seen games at the NFL level where the field was garbage, they still played. Just a few short years ago, they were replacing sod weekly at our stadium. This sounds like much ado about nothing.
 
the field has nothing to do with this contract. it has to do with the severance pay, and he has a pretty good shot at winning the lawsuit because the last amendment created an ambiguity. it was poorly redacted by i believe UM"s inhouse counsel.

I know its easy to bag on our AD here, but I'd ask Al Golden this:

If the fields were so bad and caused Ryan William's injury, why were the other players (Over 100 including walk-ons) not injured at the same time? Why are we only talking about 1 player if 100 players played on the same field?

The mental defectives of CIS are in such a fervor to burn the program down that they’re now accepting the infantile unsubstantiated blathering of a flop sweating colossal failure like Folden as some sort of scientifically valid medical evidence. Fcking idiots in here.

Folden says, “Ryan Williamz am have a non contac injery in foozball so that is meens universal of myamy am grossly negligible.”

So the perpetually drooling invalids on here accept idiot Folden’s vapid hypothesis regarding a single non-contact injury in the sport of football as case dispositive proof that Folden is entitled to a full buyout. Yep. No football player has ever injured a knee in a non-contact situation.
 
Didn't read the documents but the fact that the guys before and after him got canned for losing kind of makes a case for him not being the problem. We know he sucked but that doesn't excuse school not honoring their stupid deals.

If the fields were in such poor conditions, I would have expected 40-60 non-contact career ending injuries for this argument to hold water. 1 out of 100 is so far outside of the standard deviation that its more of a punchline than a case.
 
Golden's argument is going to be "I cared so much for the safety of these kids that I wouldn't even allow my defenders to come within 20 yds of the line of scrimmage"

And the University is going to counter by putting on the Clemson tape
