    I got my temps wrong...you are correct it was 113 in Columbia(University of South Carolina) and officially at the airport it was 109, but I was there in 2012. I still remember exactly what I was doing that day---we went to EdVenture and at 10AM the temp hit 100 degrees...and I was like seriously??  We left around 3pm and had the AC in the car on full blast with the doors and windows open in the parking lot because I couldn't even touch the steering wheel without burning my hands. 

     

    In 1986 the warmest it ever got was 106 in Columbia(according to the National Weather Service).(see below)

    Official National Weather Service record at the airport

    University of South Carolina at Columbia temperature reading of 113(probably a more accurate reading of how hot it actually was in the city itself since the campus would have concrete and brick that holds in the heat whereas the airport was a more accurate reflection of the actual air temperature in a more natural open air state). However for National Weather Service records, this is an "unofficial" reading since it wasn't at the airport where all the records are kept.

    I distinctly remember on the news that night they were touting that they just broke the official all-time record high for the state of South Carolina. Yes, I am aware that higher temperatures have been recorded but the National Weather Service recognizes the 109 as the all-time state high.

    I can live with that explanation I stand humbly corrected

    Na. Pats win, and Brady and Gronk retire ....going out on top. I hope they do if it means an end to their dynasty.

     

    Why would they want to come back? Nothing more to prove, clearly the greatest team run of all time, and it will never be duplicated.

    If NE wins I can see Gronkowski retiring but I dont think so for Brady due to the fact he has a mega sized ego that will tell him he can win 5 more rings and play until its time to collect Social Security.
