I moved to Memphis [briefly] in the mid-90s. First day there, we had an ice storm that shut the region down. Some parts of the city were still without power or safe roads nearly a week later. In Ohio, we call those types of winter events "Tuesday".

We were lucky here today. Only rain & it stopped about 2 hrs before the game. But leaving my neighbor's house the fog was so bad you could cut it with a knife!!
That holding call was horrible. Nobody would have complained had the official swallowed his flag. It was technically an infraction but that "foul" happens 20 times over the course of the game. If you're not calling it when it occurs two minutes into the first quarter of an exhibition game, you darn well have no business calling it with two minutes left in the Super Bowl.
And just a couple of days ago, Roger the Dodger was talking about how good the officiating is. :rolleyes:
Exactly! Did anyone see the article [I saw it in the Washington Post] about ex-players who are having a hard time getting $$ for their injuries suffered while they played? And how they have sued Roger Dodger & the NFL? Great article!
Ms M, I hope you don't sail away on us until next season....:[[
And how bout that all female flyover???:cool:
Well that was worth watching!!!!
Woke up this morning to discover Bradbury admitting to the holding call so there 's that!
I plan to be around off and on Moe.
I want to own up to something. Never been a fan of the Eagles, mainly because they are a divisional rival but I must admit, I have mad respect for this team particular Eagles team! Mad respect!!!!!
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY MY Peeps!!!!!!:D
Thanks Ms M! Hope you have a great day!!!!!
Happy Valentines Day, mis amigas. I'm sending all the virtual flowers and candies that I have to send. 💘
And to you too, Jerry!! Hope you do something nice for the Missus!:cool:
So the coaching vacancies are being filled & once again Eric Bieniemy is left out in the cold!
Why?
Some are speculating he's being held back due to a decades old domestic abuse charge. Hard to believe when Deshaun Watson and Greg Hardy were able to get second chances. Hopefully he takes over when Reid calls it a day.
Hey gang,grady is handing out heart shaped barf bags to the first ten people brave enough to try his new valentine's day surprise...[even grady doesn't know what's in it] bon apititete!!!
And the Steelers assistant head coach [John Mitchell] retires after 29 years.
After that was announced Twitter blows up about the possibility of Eric B coming to Pittsburgh. Steeler's Twitter is just plain crazy.
They were discussing him last night on Fox Sports radio. Some are alleging a reluctance to hire him since Andy Reid actually calls the plays in Kansas City. Forget the fact that Reid has a coaching tree that includes Doug Pederson [Super Bowl winner with the Iggles], Pat Shurmur, Sean McDermott, Matt Nagy, John Harbaugh and many others who never called plays while working under him. Nobody's talking and there's pretty much nothing that can be done.
Like I said, I hope he gets the job with the Chiefs when Reid eventually walks off and into the Hall of Fame.
Commanders are interviewing benimy today, he might just take the gig too, because when the new owners take over he could replace revera next season.
Who's gonna be the new owners?
Moe, i'll have you in a real movie before they figure that out,hehehhehe!!
And how about this: Eric B is going to the Commanders as their OC!!!
I'm a little peeved that he had to take a lateral move. He's interviewed 16 times and seven of the coaches who were hired over him have already been fired including Urban Meyer and Nate Hackett. I'll bet at least two more will be fired before he gets a head coaching job.
Yep,same[ol boys club]did we expect anything else? I'm kinda surprised that he took the jobs, but it might be the right move if rivera retires after next season and the commanders are competitive, eric should be the logical choice, i think that with his tutulage we might see a[baby maholmes-aka sam howell]don't laugh just yet..hope springs eternal...i hope!!!
Howell's junior season was very good. He lost several excellent weapons and wasn't set up well to succeed as a senior. If you give him time, he'll be fine. You already have weapons for him.
Would have liked for Eric B to go somewhere else but if this work for him, so be it.

Jeff Bezos wants to buy the Commanders? If anyone can afford the team, he could.;)
I hadn't heard that. Is he going to make fans pee in beverage cups if they need to use the bathroom while the game is being played? It'll be a show of solidarity for his workers.
NOT SO FAST ON OL JEFF, I'M COOL WITH IT BUT DANNY BOY AIN'T A FAN[ALL THAT BAD PRESS]SO HE MIGHT VETO THAT ONE...[rumor has it that Grady wanted to bid, but the World health department slammed the lid on it...too bad because Lilbits was gonna sing the National Anthem...no not that one, the one that goes...Oh say can you see the line at the emergency room!!]
And he did, R&B. No Bezos in the running.
This is really turning into a saga. Now Snyder wants the NFL to indemnify the sale.
Any thoughts on this?
ESPN has an article reporting Snyder took out a $55 million on the team without the approval of three minority partners. Goodell and the NFL approved the team to take out the loan, but without the approval of the three partners, the loan constituted bank fraud. The partners took Snyder to arbitration and when the arbitrator reached out to the league, there was a closed door meeting after which the three partners agreed mediation with Goodell instead of binding arbitration. Afterward, they agreed to sell their 40% share of the team. They're alleging the league sided with Snyder, who is unavailable for comment.
Snyder is an absolute snake and Goodell is just as corrupt as he is.

Dolphins traded for Jalen Ramsey, which will be a huge move to shore up a bad defense. Tua got his 5th year option picked up [yay!!]. Meanwhile, Atlanta has nearly $70 million to spend in free agency starting on Wednesday. The NFL offseason is almost as interesting as the regular season.
I've been seeing every Best Picture nominee in the last 2 weeks that I've ignored what's going on in the NFL. I did see about Ramsey, then today I see where the Lions snagged Cam Sutton from the Steelers. Now the Steelers have signed 3 time all pro CB Patrick Peterson from the Vikings. It's not even Wednesday yet & everyone is wheelin' & dealin'.
The Lions are a team to be feared next season. They scored a lot on everybody last season and it took another team being cheated in the last season of the game for Detroit to miss the playoffs. They were a laughing stock two years ago, but I wouldn't be surprised if they won the NFC North next year.
I agree. Now Steelers retain Larry Ogunjobi [I figured they might]. He performed well for them. A 3 yr contract I believe. And Robert Spillane went to the Raiders [ILB].
**Welp** Steelers stole Elandon Roberts from Miami. Not a true stud from a game-changing sense, but definitely a guy who pulls his weight on the field. He's one of those guys who doesn't get noticed much, but will make big plays in every game. I hate to say it, but he's going to fit in very well in your front seven either as a starter or frequent contributor. Good pickup for you, bad loss for us.
And Devin Bush has signed with Seattle. No surprise. He showed so much promise up until he tore his ACL. His path after that was questionable. I don't know what it was [the actual injury/recovery or the mental power that goes with recovery], but I wish him well.
Where's Zeke Elliot going? Where are you, Ms M?
Bye zeke[hehehehe]....jerry, i too think that it's finally the lions time to rule[the nfc north]they can score in bunches and if they fix the defense oh boy watch out, as for the commanders i think the kid[howell]will be ok because he has a real[oc]to work with...it really pisses me off to hear these dumb fans on sports radio call in and say we should've gone after[jackson]hell no, oh just give him all that cash and have nothing left to build the[o-line]...the kid will be just fine, and we should make the playoffs!!
I hope Lamar gets what he deserves, but I understand why teams [like Atlanta] don't want to trade two first round picks for a player that they'll have to give a quarter of their salary caps to. He's pricing himself out of the market and teams think he'll be injured a lot. The Ravens should have worked something out with him by now, though.
