Eastern Washington got the attention of the NFL

Apparently NFL owners aren't real big fans of EWU's red field. Here's what they were talking about in one of the latest owner's meetings.

One proposal was adopted unanimously, giving the commissioner the power to approve or deny requests to change the color of the playing field from green. Falcons owner Arthur Blank said the concern was that sponsors could approach teams and suggest a deal that involved altering a field's color.

As McKay previously noted with a smile, "We don't want any red fields like at Eastern Washington."

What? No dig at Boise State?
