    So the Sixers and Flyers lose again. Sixers are a joke! Flyers are just as bad. When does south Philly get teams that can compete.

    Could not disagree more. Flyers are worlds better as far as watchability and future. They literally just beat the defending Champs last night. Other than a few games they are in every one. They also lead the NHL with 8 wins when entering the 3rd period losing.

    Record low max/mins at MDT for next Mon, Tue, and Wed......

    13/-16, 7/-22, and 14/-9

    Much of that from the wicked '94 stretch.  Lows seem untouchable but perhaps a run at a min max.  Doubtful. 

    I had 2 sub-minus 20 lows that month...a -21 and a -22. Needed a jacket those mornings.

    Euro has MDT at -6 Wed AM, GEM -7 and GFS 8. 

    What kind of generator can you get to keep your house warm on this short of notice?   Maybe he means a space heater. 

    I have the wood leftover from my Cowboy's SB Champs 2025 parade float that I need to bust up and burn.

    I think the main chance of it happening would be a deep snow pack to reflect, reflect, reflect. 

    One thing that I find extremely encouraging is that there are no tell-tale signs of winter's demise. Even with relaxes there's plenty of winter showing itself in the extended period.

    yes. awesome news. I'm not sure why they had an article earlier in morning that Singleton wasn't listed as in school?!?! 

     

    Next Tuesday, high of 16? Phuck

    Regarding next week, I'm a little skeptical of the current forecast high temp. For example, for today, CTP had my forecast high of 21 back on Saturday. It's currently 25 and likely heading for at least the upper 20s. That's a big miss. Historically, warmth seems to be constantly under-forecasted and cold seems to be over-forecasted. I think next week will be very cold...not sure we'll see highs in the mid teens. At least based off what has happened more often than not.

    Here's my take on NFL: 

     

    It's great. Once you get past the television crap and having sports betting shoved down your throats. The NFL is the absolute best sports league on the planet when it comes to equality among its franchises. With exception to true poverty franchise like the Browns and Raiders, it is almost impossible to suck year in and year out with how the league is structured. When was the last time the Colorado Rockies were good? Their one fluke season where Rocktober happened and they got their stool pushed in in the World Series? 

     

    Compare NFL to World Futbol. Today my beloved Tottenham Hotspur Football Club played a bunch of part time soccer players in the English FA cup, a team that was 96 places beneath them in the football pyramid, and Spurs almost lost, but they didn't and they move on. Meanwhile in league play they're closer to relegation than promotion and they're one of the largest clubs on the planet. The top four or five clubs on earth (Football Club Barcelona, Real Madrid, Manchester United, to name a few) have hundreds of millions of dollars more to spend than teams in their own domestic leagues such as Crystal Palace Football Club or Ipswich Town Football Club. Why? Because there's only Financial Fair Plan rules in world football that require the clubs to spend less than they make. 

     

    Which is something baseball won't even require outside of a bullshit luxury tax structure. 

     

    For all that alone, NFL is incredible. And it's generally a great product.

    You left out Jacksonville. I actually started rooting for them when they entered the NFL before the kids came. They are the epitome of suckage.

    Though...they had New England on the ropes back in 2017 when they made their miraculous run to the AFC Championship behind Blake Bortles. Crazy stat about Bortles - he is the only QB to win twice in the same season at Heinz Field.

    When I saw Steel lost I truly did feel bad that you had two hits in two days.  

    While the Steelers are my team, I am far less passionate about them as the ones that I listed. I grew up a Baltimore Colts fan and when they broke my heart and moved to Indy in 1984 I refused to follow them. I didn't have a favorite NFL team for years until my son became a Steelers fan and I got into them with him.

    He asked me not to tell you guys, but seems the secret is out.  This is him in the Cheez-It's commercial

    This stupid Cheez-its commercial makes me violent. : r/CommercialsIHate

     

    Our daughter is in Vermont skiing this weekend. I texted her this morning asking what the temp was, her reply was "it's actually not that cold dad...it's -8."

    It came down to two things for me. The interception at the end obviously, but also where ND tied the game back up on the wide open long TD where the DB just simply slipped and fell on his break. Might have been a different situation at the end of the game if that doesn’t happen. But it is what it is. Allar had a bad game/choices and that wasn’t a good time for that given Notre Dame’s defense is ranked #1 in completion percentage (50.7%) and #3 in pass yards/game (165). That game gets to OT or even just  further down the field for the win at some point he was going to have to make a key throw.

    That one intercept he threw was woefully underthrown and any PI that may have happened on the play had nothing to do with it. 

    I said one post but I have to share this - 

    I felt like the play that no one is talking about that I thought was huge was the ND backup QB's fumble late in the 1st half when it was 10-0. I have no idea how we did not end up with the ball. There was a PSU player (Sutton maybe?) who was right there, alone, and somehow he didn't come up with the ball. 

    We recover that and it's likely going to be 13-0 or perhaps 17-0 going into the half. That would have changed the game dramatically.
