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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddly enough their owner owns Fulham Football Club, which is relatively successful in the Premier League for a club with lesser means. So the owner is better at spending money than hiring personnel. Maybe they should hire James Franklin as GM of Football Operations. That dude is elite at hiring personnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it ends up like Euro was looking before Euro sorta lost the signal at 0z. 6z is almost out and should be in range to give us a hint. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itstrainingtime Posted yesterday at 12:18 PM Share Posted yesterday at 12:18 PM 31 this morning in Maytown. My not so well thought out house purchase 28 years ago is almost void of all snow cover now on my grass. Too much full exposure to the sun.

ChescoWx Posted yesterday at 02:01 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:01 PM Today, while closer to normal will be our 24th below normal temperature day over the last 29 days. Our high today should be reached by mid-afternoon. We then see a cold front crossing the area with winds increasing and the temperatures falling below freezing by evening and we then stay below freezing all work week till Friday afternoon. We stay dry this week with our next rain chances by Friday night which could start as a little snow before a changeover to rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mount Joy Snowman Posted yesterday at 02:19 PM Share Posted yesterday at 02:19 PM Low of 26. Backyard still has a solid snowpack. I'm glad this miserable week of football is finally over. Watching football without a rooting interest is so much less stressful ha. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
