Polytrack is like Iraq (559 Views)

The entire Polytrack nonsense is being driven by a few influential people with vested financial interests in the surface becoming adopted sportwide.

Polytrack is like Iraq. There was very little critical thought put into installing the surface. No genuine research into the validity of the premise. No consideration in regard to what would happen after it was installed. No real science, no real research. You were on the Polytrack Bandwagon viewing the project positively with the cult issued Rose Colored Glasses or you were an obstructionist. And like Iraq the Polytrackers went after the wrong culprit. It wasn't the tracks. It is the ill bred animal. The Barbaro Stallion. It will blow up in their face and as the carnage unfolds you have to chuckle at their naivety. Bottom line though is that influence pays. Ka-Ching.
