Upstate NY Banter and General Discussion..

Would be like the Vikings when they moved indoors. They lost a lot of their personality and a HUGE home field advantage after moving into the Metrodome and later US Bank Stadium. -

I would have to think so. The Bucs game was their "Super Bowl". I have to imagine they just want to get out of there for the offseason at this point. -
Pretty icy this morning. Be careful if you venture out before the temps rise. I saw a couple of buses that got stuck and a bad-looking accident on a highway overpass near Route 46 in Little Falls.

Yeah, I doubt we'll ever know exactly what happened. One thing is for sure, Brown definitely needs help. He just isn't acting like a rational human being. Playing football should probably be the last thing on his mind right now. -

I'm heartbroken. It feels like another part of my youth is gone. When he and Summerall came on the air, you knew you were about to watch a big game. I also have fond memories of my mom always coming through to buy the new Madden video game for me every Christmas as a kid. Also a great, great coach. He has the highest winning percentage of any coach in NFL history who qualifies for the all-time list. John's legacy will live on forever. Rest easy, coach. -

These people have no self-awareness. Engaging in the very behavior they claim to abhor so much. It's truly a sight to behold. -

Sorry to hear. Also heard that there are no games between US based teams and teams based in Canada until further notice. The league is going to have its work cut out for it to rearrange the schedule...unless there comes a point where they can't play all 82 and have to settle for another shortened season. If the league doesn't shut down for the Olympics, they might have an extra couple of weeks to play with where games can be made up. -

Update: My fellow parishioner's test result turned out to be a false positive. She had no symptoms anyway. We were definitely relieved to hear that. -

A fellow parishioner at my church tested positive for Covid. She's OK but still very disconcerting. Sounds like some of our Christmas services might have to be cancelled. -
Bring it on. Beats the hell of out dry cold if snow isn't in the cards.

It's funny; the league I was in disbanded last year and didn't resume this season either. Guys lost interest, no one wanted to be commish, didn't have time anymore with wives, kids, jobs etc. I'm sure it's been crazy navigating this as a fantasy owner. Have to be watching the waiver wire constantly in case you need someone to plug in. -

...and they wonder why some people think these games are rigged. -
Had a light dusting on grassy surfaces and car tops. Ground was a little slick this morning.

Good. My company is taking us out for our holiday lunch tomorrow. Kick-a$$ Italian restaurant. Don't want to miss out, especially after we didn't do anything last year because of COVID.

Sorry man. It's a terrible feeling. I remember how distraught my uncle was when he put down his first dog. I'd love to get one but the part where you have to say goodbye always scares me. -

My Giants are setting offense back 50 years. Just hideous. I don't see how Judge and Gettleman survive this. They're not even close. -

Interesting thoughts. I was lucky; mild symptoms when I had Covid and when I got vaccinated. Just had a sore arm after both doses and might have been a bit more tired than usual. That's about it. I got both doses on a Friday just in case but I wasn't down and out for the weekend. I had the virus in April of '21 but didn't have a fever or cough. No signs of compromised breathing either. My biggest symptoms were a bad case of the chills and soreness in my legs. Had a dizzy spell towards the end also but fortunately, it came and went pretty fast and I'm not even sure if that was related to Covid. I did lose my sense of taste and smell but it bounced back quickly. I was certainly a lot more fortunate than others. -

Wouldn't it stand to reason that it will eventually mutate into a weaker form like many other viruses? We're almost two years into this. The Spanish Flu largely burned out after two years and became a less severe strain of influenza. -
I'm in. Snow or torch for me these days. I can't take that bone dry cold lol. Terrible for my skin which is on the dry side anyway. Just makes you not want to go outside either. The cold bothers me a little more every year as I get older.

65 on Monday forecasted for my area.

Guess there's no way to know for sure one way or the other. Definitely curious timing though.
