Big Turk Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 2 minutes ago, UKBillFan said: A previous soccer manager at the club I support fought long and hard against under soil heating at the stadium. His argument was there's no point having the pitch playable if the officials/coaches/fans can't get there to watch due to impassable roads etc. It's the same argument with the dome. Fine, so the game could be played. But if no one can get to the stadium, then the dome doesn't make a difference. Agree, unless the dome is being built over half of WNY it wouldn't matter 1 minute ago, SteveFreeman22 said: I watch some nyc stations ion youtube, they were freaking out last week when then were expecting 2 to 3 inches of snow. Lake Effect is a different animal. I call it "Angry Snow" because at times it's snowing so hard the snow falling creates updrafts that cause flakes next to it to "fall" upwards.

If Cleveland wins, we’ll just start getting ready for the Chiefs next week. I’m really not sure I can root for the Dolphins two weeks in a row. So, go Browns. I don’t really care who we get. No one in the AFC is unbeatable. If we are at our best we can beat anyone - and we basically have already. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warcodered Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 (edited) 1 hour ago, QLBillsFan said: Think they are missing the safety component for fans and workers. The new stadium is not below the ground and has some fan cover. Likely this will mitigate the insane swirls that exist at the Ralph/Highmark. It’s about the potential disaster of 70,000 traveling in this. Watt and Steeler fans were and are hoping for the worst possible conditions knowing that helps them. No he's either an idiot, or purposefully ignoring it. Well even if he is ignoring it definitely wouldn't out option C. Both.

They are clueless For 90% of the commenters complaining, this would be the worst winter weather they have ever been a part of. This would have shut down where they are at for a week. It's only keeping us down for a day. Expected snow totals just got updated to near 30" for Buffalo. Is there a link for that snow total??

Only reason I don't is that I am currently working a construction project on a US Navy base, and they told us to shut down for the federal holiday.

All I'm saying is that Rudolph is 8-4 with the Steelers, this is the first time he's got a decent team to work with. If his passing continues on anywhere near where it is now, they'd be nuts to not try him in the role next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hondo in seattle Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Hochul mentioned talking to emergency response teams. And I don't doubt that public safety was a legitimate concern. But Kathy is a Bills fan. She knows the Bills game needs to be in Buffalo. And that bad weather can be an equalizer. And that a stadium full of screaming mafia is an advantage. And that all her friends and family wanted her to do right by the Bills. I don't think for a minute that public safety was her only consideration. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Success Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I've really been giddy since this announcement. It's a whiteout tomorrow. I kept rationalizing that we're still the better team - but it would have been a weird game, where something flukey could have won it. Feels like we're back to having a big advantage. And this is such a good playoffs for us to go on a run. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rusty shackleford Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I saw the Steelers also changed their travel plans to fly in tomorrow at 3 pm instead of 3 today. Seems like that could be problematic if it’s not going to let up until Monday. Seems like they should have stuck to their plan and been here ahead of the storm. Think of the outrage if they end up pushing it back till Tuesday because of that decision. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niagara Bill Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Don't you just hate how the governor has to be involved, and all the lawyers about law suits if someone gets injured driving or slipping on ice. Soon all games will be played only if temp is 55 to 70, (heat stroke issues uou know). I was not going to the game, but have been at many when the opposite sideline was not always visible. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
