Ogden High too dangerous?

I was looking forward to watching the Outlaws play against RSL last night, but unfortunately it was cancelled. According to my friend Justin Johnson's
article in the Standard Examiner, RSL canclled at short notice and made it almost impossible to secure an alternate spot to play. While I agree that the pitch at Ogden High is in poor shape and not much has changed since the days when I played high school football against Ogden 13 years ago, the timing of this really sucked. The field at Weber State would have been a great idea, but bleachers would need to be brought in for the game which would take a while longer than a couple of days. This could easily have been done if there had been more than a couple of days worth of notice given to the Outlaws. This match has been on the schedule for months, so if safety was so much of a concern, why could they not have addressed these concerns months ago? I guess this is why RSL really needs to get a GM and needs one fast.
As it is, still looking forward to watching the return of Jeff Cunningham. I can't wait for the 4th, I think I'm going to pull out my smoker and make something good for the match.
