Okay, it's not exactly a trend yet but now there are two teams with freaky-deeky red turf football fields.ย 

Canyon High School in New Braunfels, Texas are the latest to join the, "And you will know us by our raging red turf" crowd. ย 

First out of the gate with the fire red gridiron scheme was FCS Champs Eastern Washington (they beat Delaware 20-19 in a squeaker to secure the title). ย 

Inexplicably they didn't rename their teams the Bloody Eagles.

Okay fine, Paula Creamer can pull it off.

Steelerettes: Early 60s

Maybe this is why the Pittsburgh Steelers don't have cheerleaders anymore, the original color scheme back in the early '60s wasn't exactly fetching.

This bizarro hardwood kinda looks like they cracked an egg in the middle of it.
