John1122 Posted September 22, 2020 Author Share Posted September 22, 2020 I went from depression to elation as a Cowboys fan this weekend. The Falcons have taken some tough beats the last few years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrgjeff Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 I felt the same watching the Chiefs. When they looked awful I actually said out loud, I wish CBS would have saved me the pain and just shown Baltimore here! Things turned around of course. Why can't we have normal wins anymore? Always with a side order of heart attack, lol! Meanwhile the Saints choked last night. What is it with the NFC South? Can't stand the Raiders!

John1122 Posted September 22, 2020 Author Share Posted September 22, 2020 Gruden is a good coach and I think he might surprise some people in the AFC West this year. Jacobs is talented, Waller is amazing and Carr looks like he did a few years ago when he was playing well. Dallas did it all Sunday, three 1st quarter turnovers that led to 20 points. Blown tackles, missed coverages. The defense was atrocious. Hopefully it's just a blip, the defense played well vs the Rams in week one. There were a ton of injuries. My poor fantasy team has IR and D/Q all over it today. At least I don't have Barkley but I do have multiple 49ers, even though I hate them worse than any team in the league. I have the KC running back, so hopefully he is more in his week one form the rest of the way instead of his week two form. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 Vol football Saturday and basketball season just around the corner. VERY excited about basketball this year. We have some legitimate depth at guard this year, and we all know that is a good mix for the post season. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nrgjeff Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Yes 1989 was the winter of record back in KC. All-time record low was set two nights in a row at -23 F. However that's for MCI since 1973. I think Downtown MKC has a colder older record, but that'll stand due to the urban heat island now. Apparently the 1989 wavelength was fairly big if Kansas and Tennessee followed the same pattern, vs cutter city over here. The blowtorch second half was the same too. Wow back in the days we had full latitude troughs for everyone! Other big years 1985 was more over here, cold but nothing spectacular in the Central Plains. 2000 was more there than here. I was about to put this in Fall; then, realized it's winter. All the out-of-region stuff I'll go Banter. Now in 2020 I'll go stubborn SER for at least southeast Tenn. I could see northeast Tennessee doing fine in La Nina. Then when the trough is Central US, a nice Mid South winter hammer. Everyone but CHA and HSV. Barring a one-day miracle. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nrgjeff Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 That's good news, except for more of those snow clown maps on Twitter, lol! Euro at times gets even more carried away than the GFS, depending on the vendor algorithm. Baseball wild card was fun. Games all day like March Madness. Still have a ton of sports overlapping now with the NBA Finals, MLB playoffs, and lots of football. Ironic that after missing sports for several months, we now enjoy a huge sports period that started with the NHL and NBA playoffs. Now college football is full steam ahead. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrgjeff Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Eddie Van Halen passed away. I'm going to be pretty bearish for a few days. Much above normal temps this winter. No snow. Nocturnal tornadoes. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holston_River_Rambler Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 The end of the 6z run this AM looking pretty nippy too. Snow showers and low 20s for higher elevations. Almost time to start looking at 50 EPS members for true weenie runs, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That type of deep trough could be mischief in terms of an early season storm. Of course, way out there....but that is the kind of look that could pull a tropical system into something that goes hybrid. Wouldn't be surprised for the mountains to see something around that time frame. It would also fit the pattern of the past few years of early cold and winter precip....and then crap. LOL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrgjeff Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Ensembles and Weekies have settled on the hurry up and wait solution. Cold front coming. Just wait another 10 days. We can trust the timing. Halloween cold front is usually money. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 I really like the idea of pattern discussion in the Banter Thread. Way more laid back....LOL. Been hurrying up and waiting for like two years in terms of weather. What is weird is that Kentucky games are always cold. Played it earlier this year and tried to full Mother Nature....and she still figured it out. Just give me cold and Dec 5th(as cold as reasonably possible) for the Florida game.

Holston_River_Rambler Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 O ho ho, fantasy storm on the 6z GFS: Annnddddd look what happens if you suspend disbelief and pick the best ratio: What's the Euro going for at that time (doesn't quite go out that far) you might ask... Will we have the perfunctory Halloween-La Nina snow to accompany Jeff's Halloween cold front? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carvers Gap Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 12z GFS. LOL. Looks like the dead of winter after d10. If that occurs, it will align with the "early snows equal crap winters" IMBY....the old Halloween snow equals no snow for winter alignment. Hour 252....crazy in terms of snow. End of the run...crazier in terms of temps. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
