Artificial turf needs to be replaced every eight to ten years. That means LA’s new turf has about six more seasons before it’s headed to a landfill. #FlipTheTurf

Non-contact Injuries occur more on artificial turf. That means it's likely to cost the @NFL major cash every time a player sits out due to injury. Take Cincinnati's RB for example… #FlipTheTurf:

The cost of artificial turf goes beyond the players and the environment. If LA’s QB misses one game due to injury, it will cost the NFL franchise over a million dollars. @NFL you’re cool with that? Sign to #FlipTheTurf 👉
