Heat

Here in Texas all teams are REQUIRED to have a digital type thermometer on the field at every practice. I imagine it is similar to what The Reaper referred to. Here in Houston you stop when field temp hits I believe 110. One thing lots of people forget is the temp on the practice filed can be a lot hotter than off, like a parking lot. Also, they should stick those thermometers under the players jerseys. I have seen temps of over 180 degrees under the shoulder pads. That can kill you!
