OK, maybe not a high priority in the scheme of life, but maybe we need an indoor field to simulate varying conditions - wind, rain, snow, artificial turf, noise, visual distractions, lighting, time of day, etc - and graduate assistants to research optimizing performance - cleats, braces, gloves, mental and physical and emotional preparation, etc. Do pro teams already do this - maybe the Patriots?
