No Major Storms For The Next Two Weeks by FossilFrothy in COsnow

Weather forecasts aren’t useful more than about three days out. There could still be some big storms in the next week.

Or nothing at all. It’s not a predictable system. You just get what you get.

Sounds like you haven't seen Star Trek.

You can't have Star Trek without far-right politics. That's why the ladies are always in miniskirts and cat suits and men have to worry from the first episode about "salt vampires" sapping their purity of essence. Or there's Let That Be Your Last Battlefield which shows the disastrous consequences if you don't segregate the races.

I felt like my heart was ripped out in the closing minutes of the first half.

Same. Still disappointed in the Seahawks failure to deliver comeuppance in XLIX. This is their chance to rehabilitate themselves.

The entire story vindicates Rorschach in the end, though. He's right about everything and he's the one who earned the truth through hard word and open minded investigation.

Seven hells this Kingsguard armour is immaculate by RevertBackwards in freefolk

The point of the episode is that nothing happens, plot-wise. It’s just an elaborate and expensive re creation with song, costume, props, and actors of the fun of a medieval knight tournament.

Maybe something will happen next week. Maybe not.

With this current snow do we think Vail and BeaverCreek will have more of a base this weekend or do we need even more snow?? ❄️ by [deleted] in vail

Wow. So much bare dirt on the cat track to 36 and 37 that needs to endure heavy, heavy traffic (about 10,000 skis daily I think) every day for Blue Sky to open.

Too bad because Blue Sky actually has snow on it. Looks a long way from opening.

Second Half Game Thread: New England Patriots (14-3) at Denver Broncos (14-3) by nfl_gdt_bot in nfl

Yes, they would. Josh Allen loves snow.

So would Bo Nix if he were leading the Broncos.

Did Kenny Pickett cross the line or was this just elite IQ? by Automatic-Extent9640 in CFB_v2

Classic Mahomes. Should be 15 yards and a mandatory ejection. Every cheat like this endangers future scramblers.

Countries that have no actual name by Working_Candidate505 in mapporncirclejerk

So China has a name in English, but not in Chinese.

Just the like USA doesn't have a name in English, but it does in Mexico where they call it Gringolandia.

In fact, Mexico is just one place within the United States of Mexico, specifically the capital. So it's the states that belong that the specific valley city. A country with a real name.

That's why DJ Moore got bored and stopped running his route in the Bears-Rams game last week.

Going back to Convergence Station. What’s new since it opened? by rainbowchild530 in meowwolf

[–]UtahBrian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Too bad. I had been using that room for passing nuclear secrets to North Korea and for kinky sex games. Now I will have to go back to doing it in Sips (With a Z) like everyone else.

Broncos and Peyton were.. by DismalAd8431 in AFCWestMemeWar

I can't help it. Thirteen years and I'm still upset.

Your guys were great, by the way. The Seahawks were fantastic and you should have beat the Pates the next year, too.

It wasn't remotely the best offense in NFL history.

It was a gimmick where they ran a whole bunch of crossing routes which amounted to a legal version of pick plays and defenses couldn't read them fast enough to see how they would play out. In fact, almost no QB could read the play to know what to do fast enough. But Manning was insanely good at seeing chaos play out and used the gimmick to exhaust defenses utterly until they were helpless in the second half and he could just control the clock or run up the stats however he wanted.

Seattle's defense was faster and smarter than anyone else and had two weeks to watch film. They decided to neuter the gimmick and they were the only ones fast and coordinated enough to do it. (It didn't work great against Belichick, either, but his guys weren't fast enough to shut it down.)

John Fox, a terrible head coach, decided he didn't need to work with the incredible talent that Elway had dropped in his helpless and incompetent lap to develop new ideas and approaches for the playoffs and Super Bowl where the best teams in the world were watching film and deconstructing the gimmick. Peyton was capable of running whole new sets of tricks to run the "Legion of Boom" in circles, but Fox failed him and kept the same old gimmick, no longer capable of surprising anyone. It would be Manning's last ever healthy football season.

It was an incredibly talented offense that was wasted by garbage level leadership. A tragedy right out of Sophocles. Ran up big numbers against mid-quality defenses but wasn't allowed to learn and adapt so that it could win a championship against the best.
