Going by 120 yards by 50 yards for an American football field (100 yards goal-to-goal plus 2x10 yard end zones by 50 yards wide)

select Football_Fields_per_Million_SQ_Ft =

1000000/(select SQ_Ft_Per_Football_Field = (120.0*50.0*3.0*3.0) )

Results:

George: "You want the T-shirt?"

MVJ: "I think I'm entitled."

George: "You want the T-shirt?!!"

MVJ: "I want the T-shirt!!"

George: "You can't handle the T-shirt!!"

...

George: "Did you order the T-shirt?"

MVJ: "I did my job, I'd do it again."

George: "Did you order the T-shirt??!"

MVJ: "You're God damn right I did!"

Yep, wasn't sure it would cross over night or today, and I still have images coming for the stuff, so announcement tomorrow.

thanks everyone!!

I think we're purchasing 21 acres (or 23, not sure) and should have some info today to post.

For the shirts, I usually go random, picking people out of the crowd, but if Michael, George, or any of you regular posters want one, I'll send one out.

I don't know if I'm considered a regular or not. I am on the site daily but not always posting - some days simply perusing the new posts, picking up tips. I'd be honored and proud if you'd like to send one my way! For some reason I have a feeling you'll be hearing some variation of this a lot 😀

wow - me too - not sure if I'm a regular enough forum poster to deserve a shirt but I have contributed articles and questions 🙂

Fair enough - if you're going to throw in the endzones....:)

However - the width (per NFL regulations) is 160' and not 50 yards, so - you're STILL not quite there:

http://www.sportsknowhow.com/diagrams/football-nfl-field-dimension-diagram.pdf

That then means that you're going for:

160 x 300 (no endzone) = 48000

or

160 x 360 (w/ endzones) = 57600

Which then work out to 20.8 and 17.6 football fields respectively.

Your lack of planning does not constitute an emergency on my part...unless you're my manager...or a director and above...or a really loud-spoken end-user..All right - what was my emergency again?

Heh... not sure I'm "regular enough", but can I get one please? I take a large.

BWAA-HAA!!! I'll bring some eats... everyone like pork chops? 😛

Steve Jones - Editor (1/22/2009)
Lots of shirts likely to be leaving my basement soon!

I think I would like to have a compromise of both Jeff's and Steve's idea. I think this compromise would be great on a shirt!

T-Shirt Image I created below in honor Jeff: (I write this because I can't see it. Because my company internet connection blocks it. Hopefully, you guys can. Let me know.)

Nope, can't see it here at work either. Maybe when I get home.

probably more deserving folk, but it would be rude of me to refuse such an honour. I'm a medium.

thanks
