I can't tell you how many times I've seen 17 points scored in the last 5 minutes of an NFL game, steal victory from the monster of defeat. In Soccer? I can't tell you how many times I've seen who ever scores first, wins... proving the the rest of the game a futile slog fest; the first goal happens in the first 10 of 90 eternal minutes of the affair... That is just not the way we are wired. It's amazing really that MLB has survived, though it is faltering ( most likely causally related ).

Their products directly tap the 'it can still happen' nerve, at the pace that is required to keep the attention of this culture centered. Soccer may never take on the appeal to the common populate beyond having reason for parents to vent to one another over the travails of living in a sped up, tense dynamic seeking hurried culture ( ironically) that's equally unsatisfying to them. Once in while, you get that soccer dad or mom that gets in the face of the ref and embarrasses everyone - but all they are really doing is trying to find the control they don't have over their unsatisfying job or home-life ... using an event that is supposed to be teaching children something else entirely. That doesn't really substantiate the game, but to that hot headed parent's taking exception over their brat's deserved penalty kick, a venting therapy sure felt completely necessary to them. Huge sports fan here and absolutely agree Tip. 13 minutes ago, Typhoon Tip said: Funny... no sooner did I post that muse... the U.S. hero'ed in a goal some how. Wah waah See? That's how the online social media game is played - chances to win or lose on every play, not just the game. Soccer is just a poor TV sport. The whole game comes down to setting up angles for maybe three chances per game. Instead of 11 on 11, 9 on 9 play would open up the box and allow for more opportunities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are big soccer fans and I have been going to England for Manchester City matches (and others) for 6 or 7 years. I got tickets for the final Manchester City match last season and they needed a win to clinch the Premier League title. City were 2 goals down after 70 minutes, then scored 3 goals in five and a half minutes to win. Most amazing sports event in my 68 years.

Sent from my SM-A505U using Tapatalk Yeah... by the way, - the previous missive is by no means a commentary that devalues Soccer - that 'should' be clear to the reader? The missive is more a tongue-in-cheek satire ( of sorts ... shy of real supposition ) into the fleeting attention span of Americans, and why-for Soccer doesn't carry the same popularity. You know... ( and ugh) we live in an present zeitgeist where it's 'fun' ( some how) to take exception for seemingly least excuse to do so -... it's called 'recreational outrage' but I digress. Personally, I like the game. I watched the Americans ( and Brazil...as I have friends from that region). I will continue to do so. ...well, apparently not the Americans - oops. My futility missive had merit after all. haha. No, but the usefulness of the game to world, and the U.S. slowness to wake up to that, doesn't say anything about the game itself.

I still think this favors interior and could be a fun pattern for them. I think coastal areas may have to wait a bit. We’ll see. Some models really have strong HP nosing in and have been hinting at coastal snow too. 4 hours ago, ORH_wxman said: Pretty clear that we’re fighting that SE ridge a bit more than previously progged in the Dec 8-12 timeframe but that doesn’t mean we can’t snow in that period…it will just be a little harder. Need to time things pretty well and latitude will help. I still have no qualms about beyond that. It’s hard to get the pattern looking a whole lot better than both EPS and 06z GEFS in the long range. Yea, things have trended a bit more towards the type of progression that I had envisioned last month for the month of December....with the need to fight the Pacific alot this month, which favors up and in....at least initially. Albeit the NAO is still more aggressive earlier relative to what I had thought. Anyway, December looked to me like a slow build up for alot of us and that looks to be the case.

Typhoon Tip Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 What ? huh I saw two mid level bombs on this oper. GFS. Oh they're out there in time, sure, but I'm throwing a confused at myself over a hostile take of the 12z run. Maybe it didn't reflect well in the surface evolution? much less the blue colors haha. I dunno, I'll go take a look. But as far as the height handling and the wave propagation aspects of Meteorology, that was encouraging to me as a winter enthusiast because it at least showed some respect for the NAO hemisphere in driving deeper centers E and not W of New England. Dec 13.14 and 17.18 ...and at this range, regardless of the surface particular design it's still more about the mid level height scaffolding ...ens etc, anyway and worry about that other shit later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having some factors being more hostile than others isn't prohibitive to snow....I'm mot saying its December 2001. All I mean is that it's not frigid and the coast may squirm early on. The RNA is relatively hostile this month...on obviously that doesn't mean it can't snow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowcrazed71 Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Oh boy, I love how these crazy inconsistent model runs are just shredding some people apart lol.

Typhoon Tip Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Nah the surface evolution is better than okay there guys. Jeez - I may be speaking to the straw man in the room, and I realize that there are those on the immediate coast/near-by oceanic climo taints that get screwed ( anyway...) at this time of year, but what is depicted there is correctable for everyone - relative to your IMBY climate. I would even watch 144 hour for courier and ives holiday mooders in the air for shopping and Nut Cracker donuts and cider evenings because that GFS 2-meter layout is dubious... That's likely to really be a low level growth region/beneath a saturated inversion from oceanic flow riding over 925 mb sub-freezing air as a viable correction there. Yeah, synoptic storm peels south and misses, but leaves us in long fetch of steadily cooling after that too... Of course ...all this is just speaking to this one run of the oper. GFS ... haha - 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
