Heh...see what ya did there

Not that it would have to be correlation, but...last year was one year where if ya underestimated it you were right, lol

I'm kinda at peace with whatever happens this season...my lowest bar is to just make the playoffs. After that I expect us to get the boot right away, and hopefully that'll force a change. We can't go for the SB this year in our current condition. Side note: I learned this week that our O-line coach has been fired 9 times, and all his O-lines got worse, smh Had no idea he had that bad of a track record! Needless to say he won't be back next year, lol

Sucky offense...defense is what kept us in it.

People should just keep expectations neutral and view everything within the broader context of where we've been the last 8 years and what enso state we're in and go from there--instead of going up and down with the LR modeling and the inevitable chaos of tracking an actual threat.

I think you're expecting things that the computers are simply not advanced enough for those things not to happen sometimes. Why not just...accept the current limitations/biases and set forecasts/expectations from there instead of railing against the failures as if it's something easy to fix or some conspiracy? Technology simply isn't there yet. NWP (if I'm using that term correctly) is leaps and bounds better than it was 25-30 years ago but it still isn't a crystal ball! (and someone can correct me if I'm off base on any of that).

Not sure of the similarities to now, but...I remember a lot of SE ridge can kicks last year!

Did the SSW actually happen/still on track to happen?

I think he's making a joke about it looking like it says negative 16 inches, lol

I'm not sure EDC deserves to be fired over this. He just needs to fix the dang thing this off-season. Now Harbaugh is another matter

But that would be kinda atypical for a nina, no?

In my amateur opinion...I wouldn't get excited about any winter before it happens--especially in this current cycle of underperformance we've been in with this -PDO. Just keep expectations neutral...it is a nina so you know the potential of those is limited even in better conditions anyway.

Sounds like a very easy, canonical call!

Wut. Man it's too hard to get a Nino it takes forever! Or does a -PDO regime naturally produce more ninas?

That is a beautiful shot--especially the bottom image with the stars. Wow Very inspiring!
