Re: Problems with turf rubber pellets ---
The one I saw on the Today Show referred to soccer goalies getting cancer and thinking there was a link between the cancer and crumb rubber in turf. My first thought was that football players, who are down on the turf a lot more than soccer goalies, would have more cancers if the link between cancer and crumb rubber were true.
