This might be the dumbest question I have ever asked, but I promised my kids a trip to Ski Liberty on Sunday.  Does anyone know of they stay open during a snowstorm?  Yes I know how ridiculous this sounds...

My father once told me, no question is a dumb question.

Clever evade...lol I mean we're not in the same conference so is it just like a beltway rivalry thing?

Ha. Nope. I just don't like them. Never have. I bleed burgundy and gold.

Well the feeling is not mutal...unless we play y'all, of course, lol

And that's fair. We all like what we like and what we don't. I told my sister, who is a huge ravens fan, that I wouldn't have the game on for Christmas. Pretty sure she was ready to beat me up. We did watch the game lol

I will admit it should help the eagles. But we dog walked this rams team in the middle of their “run”. When playing  team that’s clearly a level below I don’t like anything that adds variance to the equation. 

I agree that the Rams may be at a disadvantage. I recall Stafford brought the Lions into Philly in 2015 or 2014 and shat the bed in a playoff game. But turnovers multiply in bad weather and you can't predict which team will screw up. My Eagles showed who the better team is about 7 weeks ago. Just like they showed Baltimore this year. But turnovers change everything. Where is that Bermuda High when you need it.

Pretty sure ravens beat themselves in that game a bit.

Maybe but they were beat up pretty good too.

Losing by 6 isn't beat up good. The two field goals tucker missed would of changed the result. But memories may vary

What’s there to hate? We just went 12-5 after a 4-13 season, upset some big teams and won a road playoff game. It’s all bonus happiness now haha 

I envy you this... as an Eagles fan, they've reached this spot where expectations are so high every year that there is almost no joy in the journey anymore and unless they win the SB its not a successful season.  And yea I know how ridiculous that is, and I am not nearly as stupid about it as most...there are a LOT of Eagles fans that legit wanted to fire their coach when they started 2-2 this year.  My father was one of them lol.  I was like, ya'll full on crazy, but its just hard to get that excited by just making the playoffs when it happens almost every year.  I kind of miss when I was younger and just having a winning season was seen as an accomplishment.  It's less fun now.

Look at all us Ravens fans and Harbaugh :-)

 

On another note, if it snows Sunday and there is no school on Monday, how many are closed on Tuesday because there was no maintenance crew onsite Monday to clear the sidewalks and parking lots?

Oh your coach deserves to get canned. He is a clown. But I mean speaking as resident Orioles & Ravens fan. Anytime you make the dance. Take it for granted. It's a crap shoot after that. Takes only one team to get hot to rewrite the regular season records.

Go bills go (sorry @ravensrule). I just want to see Josh Allen win a Super Bowl. The team is super fun to watch as a neutral football fan. 
 

But the most important thing is - go Rams, beat Philly!

We’re no longer on speaking terms. It was nice loving you for the time we had together.

Sipping on this delectable concoction tonight. Prarie Brewery with their Imperial Stout called Bomb! At 13% deliciousness this is one of the bigger imperial stouts I've had the chance to try. All this while inflating the last of the snow tubes. I suppose that's the nail in the coffin for the Sunday storm.

This is so true! I took my son to the Tampa Bay game when literally they were without Brown, D Smith and Lane Johnson!

Most of the shows on WIP barely touched on those injuries the days after. 

I told my son as we were walking out of the stadium, with the talent they have if those guys come back healthy and stay that way, they would be in the NFCCG.

Here we are.
