Agree completely.. one of the reasons I’m rarely around anymore.. that and this annoying job getting in the way. And if you don’t like it, they say you can just pound sand and leave, as if the majority of posters here chose this style of control or who is making these rules and enforcing them. I couldn’t imagine waking up each morning giddy to come to a weather board and enforce order, whether people wanted it or not. But when you lack control at work and home, a place like this becomes an outlet where you can be in control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was great to see him in action live. Shame the special teams was so poor. Never seen such a shitty performance from them. The Jets have something in Darnold. He had flashes of solid performance.

Yeah they have something to work on in the next week, and I was also pretty impressed with Darnold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nw baltimore wx Posted December 13, 2019 Share Posted December 13, 2019 Someone needs to explain to me how a Patriots loss ensures us home field advantage. I get that a KC loss would do it because they beat us this year, but how do the patriots have any say in it? Up by two games with two to play, and we beat them. Why are they in the conversation?

FWIW - I watched the whole game and Ravens look good, even with crappy special team plays. I may not be a home town team fan, but i'll give credit where its due.

I think any next ravens win, or losses this week by both KC and NE would do it. Ravens have an effective 2 game lead thanks to the tiebreaker.

If the Patriots lose a game they would have 4 losses, and even if the Ravens lost their last 2, they would have the same record but own head to head tiebreaker. But that would not guarantee the Ravens the top seed because KC, I believe, if they win out would be 12-4, and if the ravens were also 12-4, KC would be the top seed. Simply put, Ravens need to beat the Browns and they are the number one seed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These guys destroy boards and run long time posters away. It’s always the same couple of people. Used to be funny, now just sad. And they will make very predictable responses to this post, “not my rules” “I just enforce them” “only following orders” etc. I doubt the person that supposedly set the rules even gives a shit. I respectfully disagree. The other weather boards I know of all have way stricter rules than here. I AM HERE for almost the exact opposite reason...the free exchange of ideas and information here with only a slight modicum of rules. Seriously what rules are making people feel so oppressed? What am I missing? People can post almost anything they want short of vulgarity and personal attacks, they just have to do it in the correct thread to keep things from being a confusing mess. Almost every other forum I know of has similar, and MORE strict rules. And the ones that don't are a hot mess of nonsense posts that are unreadable. You are free to disagree with me and I am free to disagree with you. And it's not personal. I have no problems with you, or anyone else that doesn't like the rules at all. I have no problems with you saying I am full of crap and these rules stifle people. I am not trying to change your mind. I just honestly don't understand why some have a problem with the very minimal guidelines here...and where you are talking about that is a more free and open environment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was part of the AOL chat rooms back in the early 90's, which was the first weather discussion I found online. I'm pretty sure he was a member at Eastern, but not sure if he made the switch to American ? Maybe in the NYC forums if he's still around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
