Tell me about it.  I just finished mowing the grass around our house, roughly about an acre.  It took me just over an hour... and that's with a tractor with a 62" belly mower.  I was having to constantly stop and pick up sticks and such that were blown down by Debbie.  My weather station says that it's 90f temperature and 67% humidity which computes to a heat index of 103f.

It makes me respect the players even more being able to practice in those kinds of conditions.

Yep. I like weight lifting in my garage a few times a week, usually the heavy compound movements to break up the trips I take to Bailey's. It was 99 degrees inside my garage yesterday. Even with a decent fan hitting me. It just felt like a damn blow dryer instead. 

It's brutal. Hydration is key though. Much respect to anybody that works and runs around in this [BLEEP] though for sure on a daily basis.
